Talking Yippeee my blood pressure is now normal

Hi everyone

I have posted this in my journal, but just wanted to share it here as well.
I stated LC 13 weeks ago, when I started my doctor tested my blood pressure and ordered cholesterol blood tests.
The results were not good !!!!!!!
blood pressure was 140/110
cholesterol was 8.1 (anything over 5 is not good)

Went back to the doctor today (13 weeks later)
My blood pressure is now PERFECT 120/80
and my cholesterol is now 6.4, which is still a little bit high, but definately on the way down.

I am just so thrilled with these results, I know I still have a long way to go with my weight, but I know if I stick to this plan it's really going to happen. I have lost almost 20 kilos in 13 weeks, which to me is just amazing.

Hope everyone is having a great LC day !!!!!
bye for now
Kaye
