I have been on blood pressure meds for a couple of years. Yes, I was overweight (obese) and hbp runs in my family. Well I've lost 22 lbs and just took my blood pressure here at home and it was 116/75! I haven't taken my meds for almost two weeks (because I keep forgetting to get the prescription) Now I don't know if I even need the meds!!!

    Agreed! Long term health benefits are MAJOR. They should be the reason we all do this (well, vanity is still a close second). Betcha can't wait for your next doctor's appointment!
