Yesterday when I stopped for my prescription, I did a blood pressure check. 146/90. Not bad considering I was about 2 miles into my walk. I sat still and took about 12 deep, slow breaths, and then did it again and it was 128/84.   That's the best it's been in a long time!

I also noticed the blood pressure cuff didn't hurt like usual. It squeezes so tightly it really pinches my arm. Only it wasn't as bad this time -- perhaps because I'm a teeny bit smaller now!

  1. Just wanted to tell you to keep going...you are doing great! Have you tried yoga? Trust me, you will not regret it. I know you do not know me, but trust me...And don't worry, I am only a tiny bit crazy!
