Went over sodium

it won't if you are still at your calorie goal. weight loss is about CALORIES IN CALORIES OUT.

if it's a lot more than usual than you MAY see WATER RETENTION over the next few days but that is NOT weight gain and will just flush out revealing your normal rate of loss.

this is the same as your protein post. you won't stall if you stick to YOUR TOTAL CALORIE GOAL.

macros only matter for feeling full and overall health but again one day isn't gonna cause any issues on those either.

Okay thanks. Didn’t know weather sodium level would change anything

it's calories in calories out.

you will get daily and weekly (and monthly as a woman) fluctuations due to water retention and other things. so daily weigh ins won't always show a literal reduction every single day. but the water fluctuations come and go, the weight loss is still happening under there if you are eating at goal daily over time (or weekly as some people look at it)

this is a long term game. a marathon.

Sodium will affect your weight, temporarily. It won't affect your body composition. Remember your body weight, as measured by the scale, can vary significantly from day to day depending on sodium intake, water intake, hormone fluctuations, etc.. If you're using it as a metric to determine how well you're doing trying to lose fat or gain lean mass you need to use something like a running average. Here's my weight from my scale for the last three months. Yes, I "lost" 6lbs in 24 hours once. (Don't I wish!)
