Hi J,

My Mom weighs 208 lbs now at 5'3", and is hoping to lose another 40 lbs or so. I don't know the type of medication she's taking, although I know she does sometimes take a diuretic aside from the high blood pressure medication.

She's been on medication for years, but recently her blood pressure has skyrocketed. She knows the extra weight is a big part of the problem and, because I've been so happy with low carbing, she finally decided to try it about a month ago. And thankfully, her doctor is ok with it.

She goes back to him for the first time after starting LC later this week.
