Thank you all for the input. I'm trying not to worry, as that is what I think got me in this situation in the first place. I've been on a diet for years and gain and lose the same pounds. My thyroid is okay. I had that checked last week. I check my BP when I first wake up and before going to bed, and I also check it random times during the day. A few times it has been way high during the random times. The only symptom I have is what I call a "throbbing-vein headache." I think I can link the headache to when my BP is up. I will try to keep losing the weight and up my water intake. I'll see what my doc says about my log and take her advice as well. Thanks again! Posting here is a great destresser!
