Hi folks
Just had to pop in and share the good news.
Last year, at my heaviest, I had to have surgery and at the time the surgeon refused to do it because my blood pressure was so high, I'd never had hypertension before and was pretty shocked. Anyway, I placed on a small dose of BP meds and had the surgery and everything was fine.
Just got back from the doctor's today and she confirmed that since I've lost so much weight and my BP is well within normal range I can now come off the tablets!! I'm SOOOO happy, that's a huge health benefit and of course it made my day when my GP congratulated me on losing over 3 1/2 stones, just what I needed!!
Onwards and downwards.. weigh in tomorrow, can't wait hehe ^.^
