It is really important to have a supportive doctor who encourages us to lose weight. Mine is the same way. On my last visit I told him I had given up drinking sodas recently. He was so excited for me. I hope you are able to continue with your doctor.

Glad you found a doctor who will cheer you on your journy losing weight. Most do not take time for the little extra boost. You are doing great.

My bp is up and bought a new bp machine today. So hate this. Thought the weight loss would help that and did. Old doc took me off a pill and new doc put me back on half of it. So now 2.5 bp drugs. Was on four so this may be my lot in life. I hate this!!

It's great to find a good dr. They're hard to find just for general GP that is good much less supportive. Wonderful job

maybe your bloodpressure will go down again. you have made an improvement

Caraken, sometimes high blood pressure is genetic. My grandmother had it, only a little overweight; my mother had it, not overweight, worked out at the gym every day into her 90s; my sister has it, has never been overweight in her life, stays fit; I have it and did even before I became overweight.

Yes mine is genetic and super high. It’s been 98/50. To 234/150. All over the place. My husband is a pills kill you guy. But no pills would kill me. My dad had HBp and when it went down they took him off all the meds and he started having strokes. Finally one paralyzed him and he died later. So I know how that can go but this morning it was 124/80. So I’m more relieved. If you live long enough something will get you Skinny or not. Happy Friday Eve FS friends. 🥳

That's great. Keep burning that weight off and every problem you had healthwise will probably go away. It did for me! I feel like I'm in my 20's again.
