Vegetable Juice?

[indyanna]

I am very new to Carb Nite – Day 4 in fact –  So far, I am having no problem with staying well below 30 gm of Carbs per day.  Question? – Can you drink a V8 juice?  Net Carbs are 11gm or should it be avoided like fruit juices.

Avoid extra carbs whenever possible

Fruit should be avoided. And how are you not able to stay below 30g a day? Unless you're eating very fibrous green veggies, it shouldn't be a problem. Should be eating meat, eggs, butter and coconut oil

I am not sure why you would want a V8 juice? What are the benefits? Just eat the real thing.

I think you misunderstood me - I am not having any problem with < 30 gm/day.  So far it is going great!

The reason I would want to drink a V8 is because I love it, but if it will mess up my weight loss progress I can certainly drop it or save it for Carb Nite.

Fair enough if you like the taste but it is probably isn't doing much for your health.
