Why am I so thirsty?
 

Hi All,

I am brand new to the boards and am on Day 11 of SBD. Things are going great and my cravings are seldom an issue. However, I have noticed I am more thirsty lately. Anyone else have/had the same issue? And if so, why? I don't eat a lot of salty foods or lunch meats or cheese. Thanks

:welcome3: Lola! Some thoughts.....

Are you eating things with lots of hidden salts..like Sodium? Try running all your food thru www.fitday.com .. it can give you some insight into the breakdown of what you are eating...
Are you moving/exercising more?

Thanks for the welcome and the suggestion. I cook a lot from scratch and am pretty aware of what foods are naturally salty. As a rule of thumb I stay away from food containing a lot of sodium because there is a family history of high blood pressure. I've got a really good Nutritition textbook that gives the break down of most foods, it's right next to all of my cookbooks.
