I'm not telling anyone to stop eating it I was saying what works for me and that wraps and pitta are a healthier option0

I am currently replacing breakfast and dinner with a fruit and veggie smoothie. I eat healthy snacks in between and a gallon of water daily. I eat a full lunch. This is what works for me. I still make sure that all fruits and veggies are weighed and fit into my daily calorie allowance. Again..... this is what works for me.0

STOP there, and everyone will agree with you.and that wraps and pitta are a healthier option
And that's the part people have problems with.

Different types of bread rather than normal that was my whole point0

Different strokes and all that, and that's fine. But don't make blanket statements saying that bread is "known to be bad for you." Because it's not.
I can eat two slices of my favorite Nature's Own Honey Wheat bread for the same calories as a large wrap or pita. Neither one is healthier than the other.0 -

But they're not inherently more or less healthy. They have different ingredients, different nutritional breakdowns, etc. But "healthy" would be determined by how they fit in with the person's overall diet. Not just by themselves.0 -
I juice pretty regularly - I'm actually doing a 2-day detox now. A gallon of this juice per day, and no chew-able food. I will drop a couple of pounds while I'm just drinking juice, but obviously I'll gain it all back! I like to do things like this as a reset so I'm more aware of what I'm putting into my body afterward. After this, I'm transitioning for 2-3 days of just raw foods - fruit, veggies, seeds & nuts, and then I'll go back to clean eating.0

It is the claiming they are healthier that people are disagreeing with. Especially since they have similar ingredients.0

Disagree all you like but it is what I have been taught by gym instructors,etc people who know a lot about nutrition. I'm not claiming to be an expert just thought if some people who are struggling saw it might of tried to replace it. My first day on here all I wanted was a bit of advice0

We are giving you advice, OP :flowerforyou:
You can listen to other people besides the "gym instructors" and keep an open mind. A lot of the people here are extremely knowledgeable and I have learned so much from the forums.

I have a nutri-bullet as well. I drink my breakfast on the way to work- frozen fruit, a cup of a leafy green, water (or sometimes green or white tea) with 2 tbsp of chia seeds OR hemp hearts added. I tried juicing but it seemed a shame to waste all of that fibre-dense pulp.0
