Going over

I am not sure about protein, but I am a witness to the disasters of continuously going over sodium. If you continue to eat high sodium meals or foods your body will retain fluid and in turn you will gain weight on the scale, but water weight. So drink more water, yes more water to push out the extra sodium. A few weeks ago I had not lost weight for two weeks and when I started keeping my sodium under 2500 mg (that's what I eat) I ended up losing like 5 lbs of water weight in about three days. So it's true, keep your sodium low. I think the healthy mg intake is like 1500 but each is different.

Protein overage isnt so bad but the more sodium you take in the more water you retain. Are you getting these from processed meat? If so try and find other sources of protein.

I have found that the only time I go over on my sodium is when I eat out or eat a lot of soup (not made from scratch). Try cutting down on eating out and that should help your sodium.

To have more protien is okay. It will keep you fuller longer, and mantain your muscle mass. Sodium intake, over will make you retain water. You should be drinking at leat eight glasses of water to get rid of the sodium. Try using dash seasoinngs, as a replacement to sodium.

I buy a frozen bone in turkey breast or the whole turkey when its cheaper and roast it up then seperate the meat in baggies. I do 3 oz per bag. I freeze them and use them in sandwiches, wraps and lately adding it to my homemade tomato soup.

So much better than deli meat.
