Liquid calories are always easier to consume, and less satisfying. I'd suggest you stick to lightly cooked veggies.
I drink V8, but I'm 305 lbs and plan on staying that way...

not to mention the sodium in a V8 is ridiculous. My rule of thumb has always been to keep it as close to nature as possible

thanks for your replies guys and me too what i hate the must is the sodium content they put in.


P.S I was thinking of getting a juicer to make my own vegetable,fruit drinks

juicers are pretty good just a pain to clean. i have one and was all gung ho using it for like a week then i put it in the cabinet and haven't touched it in about 5 years

I drink v8, i think they have around 20% DV sodium

You never want to cut up? I think you'd look a lot better....

How many people over 300 lbs have visible abs?
I'd rather be one of a handful, then one of millions.
Plus I compete in powerlifting, so the extra fluid cushions my smallish joints.

I guess it does replace what you get from veges.
Its also a great source of SUGAR and SODIUM

How bad is sodium for you and what are its effects

retain water, increase in blood pressure if your BP(bad if you have high blood pressure already).

I love drinking tomato juice, but not the kind from the stores. I get them from my garden, juice the tomatoes and can it myself. I prefer beefsteak tomatoes because the flavor is a bit better to me and I don't have to add salt. That may not be practical to alot of you guys, but if you have room for container gardens on your deck, that might be a possibility or just hit the farmer's markets for your tomatoes.

very true. how imporant ias cooked veggies (steamed) vs raw? am I loosing much by cooking or steaming them?

isn't there some low-sodium v8 out there? i know the abs diet talks about it, but has anyone found a place that sells it?

Yes. There are three types of V-8. One is the regular, another is hot and spicy, and there is a low-sodium one as well. I've seen them at Kroger and most grocery stores.

I know the v8 has a lot of sodium...but damn its good!


I don't make a habit of it, but I enjoy a glass of it every now and then

The low sodium V8 actually packs quite a bit of potassium in it, I believe 4 times the amount of sodium.
