:2cents So I Go to the Dr's for a Follow Up...

Back in Jan I had went to the Dr's because I was feeling fatigued, sluggish, and my blood pressure was up. I would feel it throughout the day for no apparent reason, even when I went to bed. I went and had all of the blood work done, and what not. A few things where high and low, but over all nothing of major concern.

That said, I changed my diet shortly after going to the Dr's. I picked up a few cook books, cut out almost all of my fast food/eating out except for maybe one day a week, and also cut down my Diet Coke intake daily down by 75% and switched off to Sobe water.

Some how in 2 months, despite eating 2-3 times more food. Drinking easily 10-20 percent more fluid daily, and without exercise, I have managed to drop 12 lbs. My blood pressure I had been taking once a day since the last Dr's appointment and it's dropped back into the 'norm' of 118/60 or something to that effect today at the office. Both the DR, and myself, were shocked to say the least.

Something so little as a few lifestyle changes making such a big difference in a few months time. Impressive...
