I've noticed that after I take my blood pressure meds, I'm not feeling that great. It makes me a bit drugged out and dizzyish. I'm due to go in next week for a check up but in the meantime I'm going to cut them in half.

Starting to really see a difference in the mirror. Weight is definitely coming off. Yesterday, I made a wonderful smoothie of carrot, celery, tomato, lemon juices blended with avocado and protein powder. Within an hour of drinking it, I was hitting the bathroom in ...
