Greetings! I've been LCing for 8 weeks, have lost 35 lbs, and am completely off my BP meds for the first time in 2 years. I was taking 40 mg of Lisinopril (generic for Zestril) per day -- now I'm taking none.
<B>But</B>, before you toss that prescription, <B>visit your doctor</B> and make sure you two agree on ditching the meds -- coming off them cold-turkey can be very bad for you. I stepped-down from 40 mgs to 20mg, then off altogether, with the doc's approval.
