Thoughs on Deli meat?

[Stinger910]

What is the general consensus of deli meats as a lean and healthy way of getting protein. More specifically, Boar's Head brand. It seems quite convenient, but it is something I should completely cut from my diet if my goals are to lose weight?

Deli meat is healthy for you as long as you stay with a reduced sodium and minimally processed variety.
