First full day on the DASH plan. Here at the beginning I'm going to blow my sodium out, because I've done a lot of cooking and the salt is the way I used to cook. I cook large batches to save cash, so once I work through the beef stew and the rest of it - oh, my, I bought a HUGE ham because of Christmas special prices and froze most of it - after that's all gone, I'll be cooking better.
The big thing I did was buy a food scale. Now I can get portions down to the gram. I just did that for the parfait I was making and saw how huge it was for a snack. So I cut it in half and made a personal meal out of it. It's under 150 mg of salt, so that's good for a snack, I'd say. It's under 10% of the 1500 mg level, so it will fit perfectly in the 2300 level I'm working for first.
