I had high blood pressure 3 years ago an like you, I wanted to avoid meds. I started a fast bc I didn’t know what to do and while fasting, I researched diets. I wanted to start the new diet fresh and avoid a transition from bad food to good food since it’s so hard for me. I decided to do IF and keto. In 2mo I dropped my BP from 150-165/85-100 down to 115-120/65-75 range. Like you, I didn’t have the time to exercise so it was all diet. I had also lost 30lbs over a 3-4mo time frame.
It’s also important to point out that the keto diet is extremely hard to maintain long term so have multiple diet plans so you can change it up and not get burned out like I did. I no longer do keto and am right back where I started and the thought of doing it again sucks bc I burned myself out on it. The point is though that it’s a diet change that exercise can help with it. I believe fasting and IF are what I’ll have to do along with eating more veggies. I’ll be cutting the sugars all together and limiting carbs rather than eliminating them. Then I’ll use exercise to burn off the excess blood sugar. From what I’ve experienced, read and picked up over the years it seems to be the frequencies in which we eat, how much we eat, what we eat and how we don’t burn off any of it with work or exercise. Not only are we putting junk in to our body but we are putting a lot of it, in to many intervals and allowing it to saturate our bloodstream with blood sugar and create damage to our system along with insulin resistance.

Limit the the junk
Limit the frequency of eating to allow your body to have a break from processing it all
Put good food in that helps your body heal
Burn off excess blood sugar
Get good rest

Good luck

Look into Weight Watchers
It’s not going to meetings with a bunch of women or eating expensive food.
I did/do it online. Lost 48 pounds and I am maintaining that loss.
It’s also not magic or even a diet. It’s just a eat less, eat better, move more plan.
