Who has juiced before? I got a Breville juicer for Christmas and besides the fact the amount of veg and fruit I put in doesn't yield as much juice as I was expecting, I am loving it! My favorite one so far was celery, spinach, lemon, apple, and ginger. Has anyone used juicing to aid in their weight loss? Any tips fora…

The old WW but also tracking on here?
I am doing the old WW with the slide thing that tells you the point value for stuff but I'm not sure if I'm doing my best! Tracking on here shows me that I'm taking in lots of carbs and not much protein and I'm not sure if I need to change my macros around?

Have seen a nutritionist for a year- basically no progress
Let me start out saying that I am a 25 yo receptionist with a loud voice in my head that comes out the second I take the last bite of something "bad".
