I checked it again today and it was normal...121/83. It must have been from all of my running around and exercise! Thanks for all of your input! I just thought it was so weird that the diastolic number was so high...I thought that exercise raised the systolic number.
Ahhh well, I will keep monitoring it!

good for you!! High BP is a huge pain...I'm in 20s and at a normal (although not aesthetically optimal) weight and have very high blood pressure....around 90/145 when not on medication. I currently take atenolol...no side effects yet.
I doubt Atkins will fix my problem, as it is not dietary, it's genetic. My mother is also at normal weight and has it.
But i'm hoping
