Apparently I love salty foods and it makes the scale go up a ton the next day. Anyone else have this problem?

    Cook from fresh and go for the other tastes; sweet, sour, savoury, spicy...

    1) don't eat out in restaurants too often - this is probably the main culprit. Try to make your own meals as often as possible or if you must eat out, choose healthier options with less sodium;
    2) drink LOTS and LOTS of water;
    3) don't add salt to food yourself.

    I find that if I eat a bad meal, I will almost always gain the next day (also when I drink alcohol). So just try to be aware of what you are eating and make better choices whenever possible.

    Avoid frozen meals they are handy but they are loaded with sodium. Sometimes they are a necessary evil.

    Hope this helps
