Really low sodium
My doctor put me on an 600mg sodium diet. I have been doing this for about a week and a half and it has already lowered my blood pressure, which was the goal, but now she tells me I have to stay on it for a long time. This is going to be really hard for me. Any suggestions to help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't feel hungry, should I eat lunch?
I'm sure this has been covered before but it's right before lunch for me and it's on my mind! If you don't feel hungry, should you eat your regular meal anyway, or wait until you feel like it?

When I started MFP I was eating pretty crappy and doing nothing about it. Quickly I learned to eat better and I love exercising so much that I hate when I miss it (my biggest supporter, my husband works out with me as often as he can).
