Sodium Balance

Saturday, March 8, 2025

TGIS.  Planning on a relaxing morning of sleeping in, errands and not much.

Had a couple persistent foot cramps overnight for the first time in a while.  It seems to me to clearly be the function of out-of-whack sodium levels.  I've had a ton of salt this week between pizza, the popcorn salting misfire, fries and other fast food.  Bad.  All sodium.  I'm hopeful that eating at home will clear that up as a matter of course, but I may want to take magnesium and potassium supps to speed the process.  Probably won't thought because I'm lazy.  And I don't think I have any straight potassium.

Thought I'd pay a steep price on the scale but it wasn't that bad.  Still need to do better though.

Breakfast:  Donuts, coffee

Slept in so I just ate the leftover donuts and headed out.

Lunch:  Steak n Shake double cheese, fries

 

Tried the new tallow fries, they were solid.   Meal appears to have really good sticking power too, still very sated a couple hours after eating it.  (Edit:  Had lunch around 12:15, updating this at 7:15, I am STILL not the least bit hungry.  Which is insane.)

Dinner:  Rice cooked in chicken broth.

 

Wasn't hungry.  Used up some broth, made rice. 

Fourthmeal:  TB caliente chicken burrito, cheesy double beef burrito

Exercise:  Nope.  Only moderately active.  Need to kick myself in the butt here.
