Juicing and Tracking Calories

umfan85

I am hoping somebody on this wonderful board can help me with a question. I have recently taken up juicing my own veggies and fruits. I really enjoy it, and have incorporated it into a daily ritual.

I am not doing a cleanse or detox or anything of that sort, it is just a way for me to get plenty of fruits and veggies. My question, do I log the calories as if I had eaten them?

No, you're going to need to look up the numbers for just the juice because you're not eating the fibrous parts and missing some of the nutrients from those parts. An alternative would be to put the whole fruit or veggie in the blender instead of a juicer so you are eating the whole thing and can count the whole thing. That's what I do for my smoothies.
