Eating highly seasoned foods. No exercise. If you take high blood pressure pills take your meds!
For me it's stress and anxiety, eating until my belly is full, eating greasy or sugary foods and caffeine. I am trying really hard to eliminate these things but damn, sometimes I just wonder if I am a glutton for punishment. I never realized how poor some of my habits were until I ended up with high blood pressure at every doctors appointment. It's been a wake-up call for me. I just wish it was easier for me to avoid these things. I know they're bad for me and still I struggle. I am really trying to push myself and have tried to change the way I shop too because I think that's part of my problem. I cook more now too, before I was eating things that just needed to be heated. I grew up in an alcoholic household so I wasn't really taught good habits but I am trying to change everything and do better and need all the prayers and positive vibes I can get. I have a big tumor I need to have removed so getting a handle on my blood pressure is a must so I can have surgery.
