Weird High blood pressure problem

Ok, so I've never had high blood pressure issues before, but about 3 weeks ago I was feeling funny and decided to check my blood pressure, it was high, and I've been checking it since, at times it's high other times it's normal.

 

I think I've figured out that caffeine is playing some roll, but it hasn't ever been a issue before. And before you say you need to eat right and exercise, I've been doing just that since april and have already lost 20 pounds so far by dropping from 215 to 195, I'm 6'1" btw for size ref. and have continued to eat right and exersize, why would it pop up all of a sudden.

 

Now I have been working swing since august last year and I've been drinking more caffeine then ever but I cant believe its just a caffeine issue.

Gotta give me more details. The carb/protein ratio is not enough man.

been eating a lot of salads and sometimes just straight protein, like boiled eggs and chicken.

For example today I had a salad for breakfast/lunch @11ish and a veggie thin crust pizza for dinner at 8ish. I don't normally eat breakfast but when I do it's usually a banana and a granola bar. Used to be with a cup of coffee but with how I've been reacting to caffeine lately probably no more coffee. But don't know if there is something else other then caffien causing this.

And saying you dont eat breakfast is good to know. You should as that can help stabilize blood sugar and blood pressure. Sometimes WHEN we ear is just as important as what.

Im trying to drill down on if you are getting good fats in your diet. Those can help LDLs as well as lipids.

How high are we talking? And how big of a gap between systolic and diastolic?

i was 140/100 earlier today about an hour after drinking coffee, at 730pm I was 135/85 last check at 9pm I was 126/77 I can still feel caffeine in my system now and think I'm still a little high.

Last Sunday I rode my bike 30 miles rested for an hour after getting back and my BP was 119/70 didn't drink coffee that day

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
