What seems to influence high blood pressure most? 30 lbs over weight, eating bad, lack of exercise, or stress. looking for which one to tackle first.

All of the above: Being overweight, poor nutrition habits, lack of exercise & stress all can increase blood pressure. Personally, i'd focus on changing your eating habits 1st followed by regular exercise as a close 2nd (could go either way). Get a BP cuff to track your response to various foods. Stay away from fast food, prepared foods & extra salt. New study suggest 4min exercise three times weekly can improve.

Wonderful question!: Fastest first: eating clean (can be done stat) eliminate processed food from your house; next exercise & start slowly under an mds advice; reduce stress by taking a meditation course; develop the habit of drinking water: rest, too. Bottom line: starting them all at once is not only possible, but desirable. Just know that weight changes happen gradually for everyone.Be patient but get started!

Exercise to lower bp: Exercise and diet would be my first choice. It's up to you which one you believe you can achieve first. No time in your busy day then choose diet. Time for exercise, then i would choose that. Exercise is far more likely to improve your stress level than any change in diet.
