Good job! Youre halfway to your weekly target of limiting sodium intake to no more than 2300 mg for five days. Your discipline in monitoring your sodium intake is commendable. Todays count of 1530 mgs is well within the limit. This is a significant step towards a healthier lifestyle. Remember every bit of effort counts and youre doing a fantastic job. Keep this momentum going!
