Blueberrybook - not sure what you mean by a raging metabolism? Myself, I try to eat controlled sodium - my Weight Watchers app tells me i am not quite succeeding! I usually eat 2x sodium per calorie - like 1500 calorie, 3000 sodium, where i hope to eat 2000 sodium max a day.

My point is, if i eat "other peoples food" (restaurant, or anything where i dont have the nutrition label in front of me!), well, ive been too afraid to even track, but the extra sodium will make me ravenous, even if my hunger has been on an even keel. I turn into the Salt Sucker from the first ever episide of Star Trek!

But really its like a hole in my stomach. I had some fat free cottage cheese and canned pineapple this past week. Even with my hunger-abating turkey sandwiches, my "full" signal was obliterated. I read somewhere your body is just trying to get enough stuff into you to neutralize the sodium overdose. But its not smart enough to choose wisely. It will even choose more sodium!

Hope this helps im always "sleeping it off" so i dont recommend that!
