Guest guest Posted October 13, 2003 Report Share Posted October 13, 2003 Hi, I was wondering if anybody else is addicted to tomato juice. I love the stuff and asked my surgeon about drinking it and he said it would be fine. The problem is I am afraid I am drinking to much! Do you think I can drink too much? I drink two pretty large glasses every night. One good thing (I guess it is a good thing!) though is shortly after drinking them I am on my way to the restroom!! No problems with the plumbing here! I also absolutely love sunflower seeds! I too buy the kind that you can get two for a dollar or the bigger bags of the same kind that are $0.88 at Wal-Mart! Can you eat too much of these? I can snack on the things all day long and eat an entire bag if I let myself. I try to limit myself to no more than 1 cup of them a day but it is hard! Would it be ok to eat more? It isn't like I am hungry, I haven't gotten hungry yet. I guess I am just use to eating them from before surgery and they taste so yummy!! Any thoughts on the juice and the seeds? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Sandi C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 13, 2003 Report Share Posted October 13, 2003 I think the tomato juice is fine. I drink a big glass of V-8 everyday and my doc said that that was fine. But don't drink too much. You don't want too many calories. Candi Anything wrong with drinking tomato juice? Hi, I was wondering if anybody else is addicted to tomato juice.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2003 Report Share Posted October 14, 2003 hi sandi. i ain't a nutritionist, but i imagine that you would have to increase your water to flush out the sodium from the tomato juice. don't wanna retain water 'round here:-) lori h.
