That was enough for me. I was 150+ over 100+ six months ago. Quit the booze changed my diet and started excersizing DAILY. I may miss one day or two when I travel on business but that is when I watch my diet closely. No sodium, no sugars and eat whole not processed food. When the rest are going out for that three martini steak dinner I am at the local supermarket buying fruit and unprocessed foods to eat in my room after I excersize.
Since I can't ride daily, too damn cold outside, I walk a minimum of four miles daily. High Blood pressure is no joke...I'm 44 and do not want to stroke out at 50 and have my wife wipe my butt for me the rest of my life.
Some people cannot avoid HBP due to genetics...but try everything else before you hit the pills. Better life through drugs should never be a goal.
