U say yr blood pressure is high but what actually is it?? Whats "high" for one person could be normal for another (within reason). I am a "bit" older than u & I wish I was healthier!!! If I jump up & down I rattle with all the meds that I am on. Stress can affect u big time (I sure know believe me!!!) get checked out by a doc!!

You said you work out, what you mean by that. Lifting weights is cool but cardio exercises are what you need to be doing. And if you drink alcohol and smoke any kind of ****, quit ASAP. Also chill out on shaking that salt on your meals. Good luck my man.

Hey guys just an update. havent been to the doctors, plan on going soon.

I dont work out. freshman-sophomore year i did football, weightlifting, track, and a little cross country. Thats the only exercise i have gotten. Junior year i weight 163, i had cut weight witch im sure did not help, but havent gained much. Its not like im steadily gaining weight.

At one of my jobs, Publix super center, i bag and stock. It is very physically demanding. I believe that is what is "keeping me in shape".

I have been dieting, laying off fast food, trying not to consume sugar. However, all of this happening right at the holidays isnt easy.


Shawn9106, i really do not want to get on meds. I hate medication. I dont but rarely take even Tylenol or Advil. I am workin on it. My biggest thing now is getting to the doctors.

Hope everyone had a great Christmas. I got plenty of clothes and what not, gf got me white neons for my truck witch looks so sexy.

Your blood pressure isn't of high concern in my opinion, mine's I think a tad worse. I'm 6'6" and 295 lbs at present. I eat normal stuff, but here's the fun part. I'm:

short tempered
a lately smoker trying to quit
living with someone who angers me for what seems like a game
a truck driver who HATES PEOPLE AND TRAFFIC!
and the list goes on......

But, amazingly, that's as high as it is presently! The doctor man will figure it out. That feeling after the fist fight is adrenalin my friend. I get that a lot lately, not good and it gets worse with age. I'm 30 and feel I can't take these um "heated discussions" on a regular basis much longer before the heart goes pop! Don't overthink this, the doctor will give suggestions and go with that....Peace out!
