My[21M}] whole life I’ve been told to reduce weight because obesity causes high blood pressure{, along with other many things(strokes, heart diseases, etc)}. Today I was surprised to know when I actually had low BP(they said it was 100/60) when I went to donate blood. Is it because I had lost some weight few months ago(I am still fat though)? Like around 10kg(22 pound). Or maybe because I have been sedentary for quite some time now(like almost a month).

High blood pressure is not directly related to weight, but obesity is a risk factor for developing high blood pressure.
