I have lost a lot of weight and am down almost 20 lbs. however my blood pressure has actually increased. I am concerned since I thought my BP would decrease from this diet. I do eat a lot and double the amount of the normal recipe listed online but I also a big person (6 ft 8, 240 lbs). I was wondering why my BP isn't going down. It is frustrating with all of the sacrifices I feel I have made. Thanks!

The FOK diet is definitely working because I eat a ton of food (I mean a ton) and I still have lost 20 lbs. Just doesn't add up that the BP isn't falling as well. Maybe the coffee trick or the ACV will do it. However I am struggling today without Caffeine! LOL
