    Never thought to look at my sodium intake. I have been working out like made and the weight loss is just so slow. Will definitely look into that.

    Great job! You look great!

    I never really thought about restricting sodium but have definitely had those days I should have lost and didnt. I knew I was retaining water but never bothered restricting. It is a good idea. Besides too much salt is bad anyways, and everything has a ton of salt in it. Especially if it is processed at all.

    Hey bro. I really gotta give it to you. You started about 3 weeks after me and weighted about 40lbs more but in the end you're now about 4 lbs lighter than me. Good stuff! Gotta me a bit motivated! Ima look into the sodium intake thing, I never thought about it.
