Backslide city

151.2 this morning--yup, it's Backslide City. This is what happens when you eat a couple of hot dogs with the crescent rolls baked around them--do you know how much sodium a couple of Nathan's hot dogs have? Well, it's plenty, and I ate them anyway. I am very sensitive to salt despite being on a diuretic for my blood pressure anyway.

Well, it's back to drinking a ton of water, and continuing to watch portion size, especially at supper. I hope will be back to 149.something next week.

Salt: the White Devil. Think about how much sodium is in your diet. McDonald's puts out nutritional guides and tells you how much sodium is it that wrap, never mind how many calories it is. I have been watching my calories--and up till last night, was still hanging right around 150.

But sometimes it really is water weight.

Still am going out on date night with my husband--we try to support local dining places, and not just the chain restaurants. But will be watching that salt out there, too!
