It's Monday! It's no wonder we sometimes dread this notorious first day of the work week. Many of us eat healthy all week long, only to partake in guilty pleasures once the weekend arrives. Our guard is let down and we eat foods we normally wouldn't even consider eating the rest of the week. After all the hard work and exercise, we deserve a treat. We have exercised our bodies and maxed out our will power hence, a cheat meal is our reward. We head into Monday wondering why we feel so bloated and miserable. I woke up this morning feeling bloated and puffy-eyed wondering what was wrong. Normally, I eat very clean and healthy. I seldom eat salt or sodium loaded foods. I never eat fast food or anything fried. So what was going on? It occurred to me that the sushi and sashimi I had eaten on Sunday was enjoyed with a bit of soy sauce. Even though it was the low sodium version, my body was telling me that the sodium was an unwelcome guest. I learned my lesson the hard way. It does matter what we eat. I had to share this timely article with you about water retention and water weight gain. Read and enjoy!
