Exercise: Just my brain. Heading off to therapy this evening. 

Summer, I was going to try the starkist creation and then saw the sodium level, I have a hard time with sodium, it makes me feel like a stuffed sausage if I have too much. Do you have any trouble with it?  maybe I'll be brave and sneak one in.

It doesn't seem to bother me, but too much sodium never really has been an issue for me. I can honestly say I've never looked to see how much was in it! I focus on calories and protein and that's about all I can handle counting. I know nutrition is a lot more complicated than that, but it's been working for me so I just keep on keeping on. I say try one, they're a staple in my diet because they taste decent, have a great calorie to protein ratio (90 cals/16 protein), they're the perfect serving size, they're cheap and I can bring them anywhere because they don't have to be refrigerated. 

Good luck!

Excuse me ladies I know I'm totally butting in and late at that.          I just wanted to say I eat starkist tuna in the sweet and spicy and I'm also sensitive to sodium.  This doesn't seem to bother me at all and I use it many different ways.

 

My fave way for breakfast 1. egg

                                                       2. 1 thin slice of muenster

                                                       3. packet of sweet and spicy

Make your egg the way you like it.  My favorite way is over med Then I place the cheese slice over the egg.  So while the cheese melts I put the packet of tuna in skillet in a patty form.

I like to add a little more spice. So I add cayenne pepper and a little onion powder.   Then nicely flip it.

When heated all the way through.   Take out of pan and stack,  tuna, egg/w cheese.  Then  I sprinkle a little bit of herbs and small dollop of greek yogurt.

 

The protein is about 30 gms .   cals I'm not quite sure but will check  it out.     Since your interested in trying it. Maybe you can try only half a pack on some greens.

 

Thank you for letting me butt in.                             Jenn D.
