Depending on what's in the drinks but you might find they shoot-up your bg, better just to cut back on the portion sizes and eat 3 straight meals IMHO.
 
Most commercial fruit juices contain a lot of Sugar, and are not that good for you
It seems a lot of people are going low Carb to loose weight, and you get the additional benefit of lowering Blood Glucose.
Consider giving it a try.
It worked for me, slowly but I have lost a lot of weight 40Lbs, and reduced blood sugar to around 5.0 over 18 months
Good Luck
 
Why juice? It's not very healthy as the cells and fibre are broken down making the carbs higher GI; there is also the sugar if it's a commercial product. Obviously as a T1 you can carb-count to match but I would keep the juices down.
