I joined (re-joined, really) WW yesterday after an 11 year hiatus. I decided it was time to lose the baby weight since my baby is 6yo now. LOL Anyway, the plan has changed quite a bit since the last time I was a member of WW and I'm going with the flex for now. My question is-- Does 6oz of V8 juice count as a vegetable? TIA and wish me luck!

I'm not sure. There has been a debate on that on a yahoo group I belong to. I'd say, call and ask them to be sure. Welcome to this board too!

Thanks! I'm going to count it as a veggie for now and ask at my next meeting. Also thanks for the welcome. I haven't been on the "Let's Get Fit" board for a couple of years, but I'm motivated again so here I am.

I would doubt it as it lacks fiber. JMHO

Well, I asked about V8 at the meet this week and it is considered a veggie, but one that is very high in sodium and not recommended on a regular basis.

BTW, I had a good week last week and dropped 4.4lbs!

Way to go on the weight loss! You must be so proud of yourself! It makes sense about the sodium. I know I try and watch my intake, otherwise I get really bloated. So, what is your goal? How much weight do you want to loose?

Thanks! I am happy with myself that I am doing what I need to do to be healthy. My goal is 40lbs by New Years.
