    lady_tracy, I began a couple months ago in somewhat the same situation as yours. I had been through SEVERAL blood pressure meds, and although most of them lowered my blood pressure, my doctor and I couldn't find even one that didn't make me feel TERRIBLE.

    I finally realized that I would have to take charge of myself and see if eating like a healthy person instead of a garbage disposal would help, and surprise! It did!

    I have a little over 20 pounds gone, blood pressure is in the middle of normal range, I feel good, no cravings, making progress.

    YES, what you have said is a help to me, a source of encouragement, and a testimonial to the fact that if you DO it, MFP will work.

    Thank you, and Best Wishes on your journey!

    truly inspiring! I just started taking control of my weight and diet in April. Since then I have lost 16 pounds (I have lost 2 pounds since joining MFP last week). I have about 80 to go, but reading stories like yours, really helps! I am sharing your story with my husband who has had multiple back surgeries and feels lost as to what he can do to get his health in order. Thank you for sharing!

    You are an inspiration! This is just what I needed to see as I'm whining to myself about not wanting to workout today- if you could make such a tremendous lifestyle change, surely I can go get my 30 day shred video over with!

    Way to go. This is so inspiring. It is funny, now that I am counting calories it is scarry to think how many I was consuming on a daily basis.
