Get a crock pot, throw a pork butt and some potatoes and veggies in there in the morning.. then you have food for a week when you get home.

So in other words, eat a bunch of Subway?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

There are many different combinations of spices that will have you completely cooking without salt. Even the type of meat you cook needs different amounts of salt. Red meat seems to need more to me. Try and use fresh spices and herbs when you can. Also refrain from sodas if you drink them. Beer, wine, tea, water and milk are solid drinks. Buy unsalted butter also.

Avoid eating out as much as possible. When I'm home, I'm the primary cook. I never add salt to any dish I prepare.

That whole getting bored with food choices thing.

A lot of it depends on the type of meat. Can't be anything pre-frozen. I generally prefer sweeter marinades, so that doesn't make chicken or fish too bad, but if I'm grilling a steak I want to put Lawry's on it.

The biggest issue, IMO, is having a diverse enough set of food to eat and not get bored with choices.

Very true on the meat. Lawry's is definitely not a friend of the low sodium dieter, although they do make a 'lower sodium' seasoning salt (25% less sodium), but it honestly is still pretty high . . . .

I am working on this problem with sugar and it's really hard since salt and sugar are in everything.
A can of organic minestrone soup seems healthy but it has roughly 700mg of sodium a serving and there's about 2 servings. I had to stop eating that.

Your only choice is making meals with fresh food. I went to Sprouts in Overland Park last night and they have 10 oz organic frozen fruits and vegetables for $2.79 a bag. Cheaper if you don't want organic.
That's what I get and it's worked out well so far.

That's not all that's poured directly into your mouth. Hey Oh!

All kidding aside, avoid Subway like the plague if you are on a low sodium diet.

About any sandwich you order there is going to be LOADED with salt (minus the flat bread veggie sub).

Eating out is better done at home.

Avoid restaurants like the plague.

Maybe she will give you a mouth hug reward.

Yes, agreed. Avoid eating out altogether as much as possible, but Subway has this cultural connotation of being 'healthy' eating.

It's not.

All based on the fact that a kiddie porn loving pedo lost a bunch of weight eating their sandwiches.

I suppose it depends on your goals. Most posters have already hit the nail on the head, stick to Paleo-esque principles and and prepare your foods freshly, sticking to meats, veggies, fruits, nuts ect. The problem you will run into is meal prep, as cooking this style demands a large amount of time to prep usually 20 mins +. If you have deep pockets, you can do what my brother did, which was contact a business that essentially packages the meals and delivers them about once a week or every two weeks.

Don't eat anything processed. No alcohol. Don't smoke. Don't touch yourseld. Read books about God. Be good to people. Cum in the vagina only no pulling out. No drugs and don't cuss to much. Pretty simple to live healthy.
