Question about Subway Subs
Uhhhhhh......... :indifferent: On Subway's website, under nutritional information, under sandwiches... does that include the bread? Because if you look at the values of the bread alone, they are a couple hundred calories, so that would mean the meat and stuff is only about 100 calories??

RINSING HAM ???
So we just bought some honey ham from Sprouts Deli. It is the saltiest ham I've EVER had. So I'm wondering, if I rinsed it, would it remove some of the salt, or is it cooked in? I'm guessing it's cooked in, but I just hate to waste it. On the other hand, it's very much like licking a salt lick. And yes, I really have…

"Diet" Soda Pop

sodium intake
I routinely go over my sodium budget each day. However, I drink between 12 and 16 8oz glasses of water per day. Should I worry about consuming too much sodium? My blood pressure as of 2 weeks ago was 110 over 70. That's OK right?
