can hot dogs stall you?

[jcapulet]

Ok...I didnt' eat anything "bad" yesterday. I stepped on the scale this morning and went from 164.2 to 165.6

For breakfast I had a hamburger pattie and a slice of whooshie pie...snack was 5 cubes of muenster cheese (each cube was about .75 inches). Lunch was 3 cups of salad and a slice of whooshie pie again (keeps me full). Afternoon snack, 2 deviled eggs. Dinner...2 hot dogs.

The hot dogs didn't have sugar (or if it did, it was a trace). Could I gain that much from sodium/water retention?

p.s. drinking right amount of water too!

My 2 pence worth is to ask you to split your veggie / salad up a bit and not have it all in one meal. This helps stabalize your blood sugar.

OK - hot dogs - what kind? What brand? Some have lotsa corn syrup; most have lotsa salt; then there's preservatives; nitrates/nitrites... hot dogs can cause water retention from ****. And the label may have rounded down the actual g/carbs/serving.

But it won't last forever, it's only water.

I'm pretty sure they are Oscar Meyer beef hot dogs. I hope it is just water!

Edit: just checked what I recorded on Fitday...each hot dog has 460mg of sodium. I had 2.

Stop freaking out about a few pounds

MEasure yourself........

Also. the nitrates in hot dogs can cause you to retain water ...

Anyway. measure yourself every few days and you'll stop yourself from stressing out
