Low Sodium- I Can Do It!

Did I ever mention that the surgeon removed 4 liters of fluid from my abdomen? 4 liters! She told me I have to be a on a strict(er) low sodium diet at least for the first couple weeks after surgery. Sometimes I hate following rules. But I'm surprised that I haven't been craving fast food- as I usually do. That's good, huh? I was craving green peppers, though, and wanted pizza with green peppers. So what does my mother do? She made me HOMEMADE pizza! The crust- homemade and salt free. The sauce- salt free tomato sauce. The cheese- low sodium cheeses. Tomatoes- fresh from her tomato plant. Mushrooms- fresh. Green pepper- fresh. Onion- fresh. It was certainly different than your frozen pizzas or your carry out. But it was amazing and wonderful! Do I have the best mommy in the world, or what!?!
