New member. Just started blood pressure tablets. Thought I was too young at 50 for this but I need to make lifestyle changes now.

Hi there

I’m 50. Blood pressure has been elevated this last year, my doc put me on a low dose tab and told me to cut out regular drinking, which I enjoy weekends in my hot tub or when I can get out with my friends or hubby. I’m very social and so my habit is when I’m out at a restaurant or pub i drink. Always loved my salt and full fat full salty butter. Covid lockdown has made me lazier too. Still have not returned to gym since covid outbreak nearly 2 yrs ago.

This is probably all boring to you guys but I’m raging I’m on a tablet now so I’m going to improve my health now.

Just now also being diagnosed with an under active thyroid is a good explanation as to why I have slowed my pace down or maybe an accuse .

Thanks for this group.
