Blood Pressure Rising…

Posted June 23rd, 2008 by Sophia

As previously mentioned, the 3 Mommies have started a new weight loss and lifestyle program. As part of this program, we took our blood pressure today with Mommy Melinda’s blood pressure machine. Here are our results:

Mommy Anna:

  • Systolic: 104
  • Diastolic: 72
  • Pulse: 66

Good job, Anna!

Mommy Melinda:

  • Systolic: 140
  • Diastolic: 92
  • Pulse: 92

Mommy Sophia:

  • Systolic: 144 (uh…that’s not a typo…I did it twice)
  • Diastolic: 95
  • Pulse: 80

Okay so Melinda and Sophia were having a highly caffeinated morning. Perhaps this attributed to the extremely high numbers (since we haven’t had trouble with high blood pressure in the past). We are going to start cutting back on caffeine in addition to our plan to eat healthy and exercise. We’ll see if this helps our blood pressure next time. Keep your fingers crossed fellow mommies. I think we are going to need the support!
