Diet was terrible and as I lost weight and ate better my blood pressure went down to normal. Either way I should be exercising regularly - but walking etc means extra time I need to factor into my day. Riding would eliminate that, essentially.If you've got that history then it sounds like your doc knows what is up.As you say though, dropping weight is a good thing regardless.

Well I guess it's time to bust out myfitnesspal and start losing weight ay?! Yup. GF ordered hello fresh for dinners - so that'll help us eat healthier in the egg evenings at least. 3 hours ago, camo86T said: What all these^ guys said But buy a bike for sure cos cool... Are you into riding other than fitness/transport? I mean would you throw it in the vtec and head out to what you guys call hills in Perth for a burn on the weekend? Or are you a road bike sorta guy I used to be when I was younger. Not a "road bike sorta guy", but would probably buy an endurance road bike for commuting as it'd be a whole lot easier doing 30km on a road bike than a mountain bike. Did enjoy doing some downhill riding though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucked. Previous checkup was 1991 in primary school.
