    Dr. Cut my blood pressure meds in 1/2 today!!!!

    Just wanted to share some good news that really has me jazzed today!

    I have been on Atkins for 2-1/2 weeks and my blood pressure went from 150/90 to 120/70. The last 2 days it has been 113-115/70 so doc. said "let's cut them in 1/2!

    After that....who can doubt that Atkins is the ultimate way of eating forever!!!
    (and this website is the best support system ever)

    I have only lost 2 lbs. but am feeling wonderful!

    Stoked in California!

          Wonderful news!
          Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
          he said, 'Don't count calories.'

            sugar and being overweight can cause blood pressure to rise and Atkins is a natural diuretic so it effects 2 cuases right off the bat.

            You may need even more blood pressure med cuts.

            did you know being just 25 pounds over weight means you got 5,000 extra miles of blood vessels for your heart to pump through? Talk about needing more pressure to move all that
