too many other variables: exercise level, how much weight, how much fat/sodium/potassium/water, how high it was to start, age, gender (pre, peri, post menopause), original cause of the hypertension (just weight or other things as well), genetic components, cholesterol buildup, etc. Every person's combination of these things is very different.
