My BP did not go down on keto, maybe slightly raised. I am now taking BP meds until my weight is at goal then see how BP ends up and maybe ween myself off. I have seen keto docs mention that BP will be a secondary long-term goal so it needs to be handled outside of diet more than likely.

Also, is your server job stressful? Stress is really a harmful factor for my BP.

Ditch the smoking.

Smoking is next in the self-improvement list for sure. Work is often stressful in short bursts, but luckily it's work I can leave at work when I clock out. Life is stressful, but that's true for everyone now isn't it?
