Last month my doc told me I have high blood pressure, so I started the DASH diet and started exercising again. I had become complacent for the last year or so in the wake of other medical problems. Since I began attempting to eat less sodium I have received a disturbingly fatalist reaction from my family. My brother and mother have both said, in so many words, that lower sodium equates to a lower standard of living. Salt = flavor. My brother gets angry when I say something about milk or dark meat chicken having alot of salt in it, like I'm taking food out of his mouth, or at least diminishing his enjoyment thereof. The kicker is that he drinks beer all day, eats whatever he wants, never exercises and still weighs 20 lbs less that me. Actually, comparing weights yesterday was the most discouraged I've felt since starting the diet. I will likely not weigh in anymore at all. If the doctor weighs me I'll post it here. This site is good for tracking calories in and out but regularly checking my weight falls somewhere between discouraging and humiliating for me.
