8 lbs so far, and higher than norm BP
I have been a bad girl.
I know I have been consuming far too much sodium and now the doc knows too.
He said to limit my salt and sugar intake, so I guess I have a few lbs of water weight.
Low sodium ideas anyone?

- Limit take out
- Limit soups, can food and other processed food
Eat more fresh veggies (raw, steamed, boiled).

Re: 8 lbs so far, and higher than norm BP
With the heat and swelling that comes with it, it's normal to be a bit high.
I went to my appt. this week and my BP was higher than normal, but the Dr. said it's because of the heat (and the hotdogs I ate the day before  )
Try just REDUCING your salt intake and increasing water- I'll bet it will come down.
