HealthyBabs's Journal, 19 January 2011

Had a really good day yesterday besides the ice storm. Worked from home as it was impossible to get out at all. Getting used to new proportions of the macro-nutrients. It is amazing where all the hidden sodium is in our diets and I am not talking about prepared foods either, yes those are off the charts, but just the whole raw foods as well. Important for me to keep that under 1400 mg so I can get off that darn med at some point!

Breakfast: 9am
protein shake (cold coffee, vanilla soy & whey protein powder)
hot coffee & soymilk creamer

Lunch: noon
salad of romaine, spinach, tomatos, carrot, sauteed (no fat) zucchini/mushrooms, roast beef, hardboiled egg white and my homemade tarragon vinagarette dressing.

Dinner: 6pm
salmon
roasted cauliflower & chickpeas
rye bread
Homemade apple sauce (no sugar)

Snacks:
2pm-blueberries & walnuts
8pm-n/f greek yogurt, flax meal, strawberries

Had all my water, vitamins & meds
got plenty of sleep
Net Calories: -749
8 minutes moderate exercise

Off to face the day, hope you all have a wonderful journey today!

Its just not packaged foods that pack on the sodium! Many people believe that to be the case but if your not careful even healthy food can pack it on.... Take tofu for example hehehe. Great day Babs and be careful if you do go out I slipped this morning LOL

Hmmm, didn't really realize about all the hidden sodium. Guess I better start paying better attention.

ceceps, you will be amazed...do you track your sodium on your food journal? I wasn't but am now, what an eye opener. Take a look at some of my food journals from this week and you will see what I mean. I have found that trying to stay below 1400 mg is taking some getting used to, but by cutting out those high sodium foods, it also cuts out alot of fat as well. Who knew so many of our foods were fat and salt...can anyone say FLAVOR????
