I went over by 644 mg today. I don't know if that's a lot but I know it can't be good & I also know it causes water weight... if u have taken in too much sodium for the day what can u do when u realize afterwards that u have taken in too much sodium for the day???

    it depends on your body..sometimes you can go over, and it wont effect you, drink water, sweat it out, who knows..good luck

    Thanx for the advice! Ill give that a try! =)
  • That is not a lot of sodium. A low-sodium diet is under 1600mg or some say under 2000mg. Today I've had 1043mg. You're doing a terrific job with your intake! Keep it up:)

    I have went over the past few days, I drink lots of water and just try to stay under, I recently started to track my sodium.
