Add greek yogurt to your juice to turn it into a smoothie. You'll get some protein and fats this way. Try adding avocado as well for some fats. You're not eating enough calories and you'll burn out quickly. You're definitely not eating enough protein and fat a day by what you listed. Fats are not the enemy!0

juicing can be wonderful as a single meal replacement daily, however, the other meals and snacks, you need a variety of foods. You are not nourishing your body well enough, and should be eating more. Also, jello? jello is just junk food.0

Juicing is just a passion I love doing its a great way to get my husband and child to eat heathy
NOTHING YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT IS HEALTHY! YOU ARE UNDER FEEDING YOURSELF! YOU ARE SETTING A BAD EXAMPLE FOR YOUR CHILD! DIET PILLS PLUS A STARVATION DIET IS A HORRIBLE PATH!
Yes, I deliberately put that in all caps and bold.0 -
I asked for advice I'm just starting to diet again you guys aren't posting to my post at all. Some people are good response the rest are trolls!!! Bold is not needed I can read thank you. My family is as healthy ever I don't make my family eat as I do my kids eat fine and normal as any growing child ! If you never juiced I wouldn't expect you to know how amazing it is for people . Not once did I say that's all I feel my kids or family read don't speculate. It makes you sound ignorant . I asked for advice and I got it . Thanks0

I don't consider jello junk food it's like 5 calories and 0% of everything else it's a nice way to make myself feel full
I mix it with yogurt and granola. Yeah from reading the post I just added plain oatmeal and find more fiber filled foods:) 0 -

In general, if someone is on a weight loss plan and they wouldn't want their children to eat the same way that they do, it should inspire some thought.
Your children depend on you. Shouldn't you show your body some care? Don't you want them to grow up seeing what it looks like for a woman to nourish herself properly?0 -

You admit to eating far too few calories and using diet pills .. then lie to us and say you're not starving yourself. Your admitted actions make your accusations of ignorance on our part absolutely laughable. You obviously aren't paying attention to what people are telling you and then ranting against your deliberate misrepresentations of what you were told.-1

Thank you that's a great idea! I eat Greek yogurt every day! I love avocados ! Thank you!

Any juice you usually buy in stores in concentrate . Not close to the real deal. Even if it says 100% juice it's still not as good as making it in your home. Especially if you add your own vegetables to the juice like kale or collard greens . I personally like to known everything that's being put in. Read the juice labels next time you go to the store or if you. Have it you will see they add a lot of other things than juice . I don't want all that added stuff

100% juice doesn't have other things added. If it did, it would no longer be 100% juice.0 -

I have purchased not from concentrate juice at stores all over the US, usually at regular grocery stores. I'm not really sure what you think the concentration is doing that is negative, but there are options available for people who wish to avoid it.
I do read the label when I buy juice. It contains juice from a piece of fruit. There are no other ingredients. If you don't want anything added to your juice, there are plenty of options that meet your needs.
If you want to juice at home, that isn't a problem. I like to make many things at home that I can purchase because I like the taste of mine better or I find the process pleasant. But you seem to be doing this from a place of misunderstanding (or possibly fear) and I don't think that it is based on valid reasons. It also seems to be inconsistent. You put all this thought into juice, but you eat Jell-O, a food that is much more processed and contains many more "unknowns" than a bottle of juice.

If it says 100% juice, then that's what's in it. It is illegal for them to lie on their labels. 'From concentrate' just means they took out the water from the juice, then froze it for better transportation, then added the water back in again as it defrosts. Nothing extra is added. So, again, what's wrong with 100% juices from the store?
Please, please, please eat more. If your kids see you eating like that (only 500-700 calories) they might copy you now or in the future. And actually, yes, a lot of the people replying to you HAVE juiced before. They're not specifically saying juicing is bad, they're saying that your low calorie count and low counts of fibre, fat and protein are the problem.0 -

Look If you feel fine drinking juice from the stores go ahead . I don't think their as good as making it from home.

Yeah I'm going to add more for sure! That's the only reason I posted here was to see !

Oh .. the irony of a person complaining that store juice has things added to 100% juice (which it doesn't) then admitting that they add other things when they juice.

I've been juicing for a while now dieting and not dieting , my main juice is 2cups of kale,4. Celery stocks , I Apple, I whole cucumber ginger and lemon. I take this every day as a meal replacement now that I'm dieting usually for lunch. I'm trying to loose two pounds a week so it's saying my calorie intake should be 1,500 . I eat yogurt and jello, eggs and this juice . I don't want to eat bread or pasta. So it's saying that I'm not i taking enough calories . I work out with preworkout and by the end of the day of eating those things I'll have 1000 to 800 calories left for the day that I'm not using . I'm on day three of this new diet. And I've lost 5 pounds probably water weight. Am I getting enough nutrients for my body with what I'm eating? I know it's not enough calories but if I'm eating fruits and veggies and protein every day is that okay?
No. Not enough nutrients. Not sustainable or healthy dieting.
Eat your 1,500 calories. Get at least 1,200 calories. Don't take diet pills.
Have your juice but also eat more regular food. You have enough calories to do so. How about meat, cheese, nuts, potatoes, beans, lentils, peanut butter, vegetables and fruits that haven't been juiced?

At this point I am praying this is a troll!Lmao I asked for advice and I got it. If I didn't want advice I would never post idiot. I didn't say I was not going to add more calories to my diet did I. Therefore your post are not needed there buddy. Pot calling the kettle black won the troll comment there.
Not one thing about your post made any sense what so ever, but I am an idiot? LOL! Good luck to you on your journey of juicing or trolling or whatever it is that floats your boat!
I am kind of flattered though that out of all of the posts calling you a troll, mine was the one that ruffled your feathers

lol fresh juicing is way better than store bought 100% juice!!! Fresh juicing contains more vitamins and minerals most of the time juices you buy at the store have added sugar . There's no fighting that . People can buy store juice if they want to. Not a problem ! I just prefer fresh over sitting juice

Do you have a source for the claim that juice that is made at home contains more vitamins and minerals than juice that you purchase? Since you can easily buy juice that doesn't contain added sugar (or you can add sugar to juice you make at home), that particular point is irrelevant.0 -
Your getting more vitamins and minerals from fresh juicing . And most 100% juice your buying has added sugar that I don't particularly wantjanejellyroll wrote: »janejellyroll wrote: »janejellyroll wrote: »
