One set of tests is not enough to justify a lifestyle change like that.

Some obvious questions:

1. What was your HDL/LDL? What was it a year ago? If your LDL has gone up, that is a good thing, especially if it is a larger % increase than the HDL.

2. What were your triglycerides then? Now?

3. Your weight loss should have significantly lowered your blood pressure - what was it then? What is it now?

I'd say add more calcium to your diet (yogurt, broccoli, cheeses) - helps with both weight loss and high blood pressure, and get more details about your numbers - hard to know what to recommend without more data. Also, get a blood pressure testing machine - learn how to use it correctly.

Did you know that TALKING while having your pressure taken can boost the results? Lots of things can boost blood pressure short-term - take many readings over a long period of time to get a better picture of what is going on.
