So my husband eats all kinds of meat. I only eat fish. Shrimp and imitation crab, two of our favorite salad toppings, are unfortunately loaded with sodium especially the crab. My initial goal was to not have food in the house that is off-limits yet I'm wondering if that is really feasible... Tonight we fixed tacos, his with lean hamburger and mine with black beans. The main item missing, salsa as I've yet to find one that has even middle-of-the road level of sodium. Thank goodness I had a jar of chopped jalapenos to add to the black beans. They are also loaded with sodium yet since my husband doesn't like them it's OK. Honestly most high-sodium food I am not going to miss... I'll learn how to make salsa... yet shrimp, imitation crab, that's a different story... when it's items that he likes I just don't think I would enjoy eating them in front of him.
How to balance for both of us... I think the answer is to occasionally let him spend his points on whatever food he wants as long as he stays within the 2 grams/2000 milligrams limit per day... a new way of life for both of us...
