I use to have a problem eating veggies too. Went the V8 route also.Yapper said:I don't eat much vegetables so I've started choking down v8 lately because... it's got to be good for me, right??

good point on the potassium, md3, but as an endomorph / lazy mesomorph I generally avoid potatoes, and I can only take so much banana... I tend to get my potassium from low-fat / low-sugar yogurt.
You've gotta define 'need' though. I've been lifting on a low-carb diet for ~3/4 of a year, with only enough carbs to keep me out of ketosis (60-100g /day) and maltodextrin in my post-workout shake. Carbs come in the form of low-carb vegetables and fruits, and a small amount of carrots/sweet potato.md3sign said:Body type doesn't matter ... you still need carbs.
I share your bias.simon said:Maybe I'm biased, but eating less rice, bread, potatoes etc. only leaves me more room for lovely lovely meat.
i think that's why they market it as healthy.Hockey Playa said:V8 tasttes horrible, it must be good for something
