hai,

As from your BMI (body mass index) seems to be overweight.
high blood pressure and disc prolapse possibly because of your over weight.
you can reduce your weight by following certain diet pattern and lifestyle.

I will suggest you diet and lifestyle:

Be hydrated.4- 5litres of water.
Add more fiber foods like leafy vegetables and fruits.
Add more millets in your daily food stuffs. add barley,lentils etc.
Avoid fried,junk,fatty foods.

use oils(unsaturated -like olive oil,sesame oil,corn oil) in limited amounts,
limit your salt intake. In will help in controlling higher tension.


Do walk (brisk)for 30 minutes. avoid stress and anxiety.
practicing yoga will help you in controlling the Blood pressure as well as weight gain.

As your disc problem got solved.

continue it for 2 months you can have a change in your weight and blood pressure.

if it is a gestational hypertension (high bp during pregnancy) above advise will help you in maintaining it.

you can also do yoga after you conceive with limited postures. yoga restricted in first trimester and third trimester.

thank you

hope i answered your query.
