Am I eating too much salt?

[logansmommy27]

Hi Everyone,
I am new to this website and I am on my 5th day of induction. I am feeling really good about things but I am a little concerned about the amount of sodium I am taking in each day. Yesterday I had almost 3000 grams of sodium. Can I eat lower sodium foods without adding extra carbs? I would really appreciate any advice you can give me. Thanks a bunch

Re: Am I eating too much salt?

Too much salt will make you retain water and hinder your loss. Wht foods re ou eating that are rrealy high in salt. Cheese can be a culprit. If ou eat a lot of fresh meat and veg. you should not have too much salt. Maybe post a menu?

Re: Am I eating too much salt?

I started eating a lot of my vegetables raw (cucumber, tomato, jicama, spinach) so it isn't prepared with salt. Also, I just stopped putting salt on my boiled eggs. It has made a difference to me. I prepare most of my meats so I control the salt that goes on them.
