Is Lemon Juice Okay



Recommended Posts

One of my favorite things to eat is romaine lettuce with lemon juice and pepper ? Does the acid from the lemon juice have any affects on my band ?

The lemon juice doesn't touch the band. There is no reason why having a band should stop you eating it. The only time it would be a problem would be if you had an ulcer.

I agree, I think it's just fine, can't imangine what it would hurt.

Enjoy!

What about hot sauce? Did anyone try buffalo wings or sauce?

One of my favorite ways to use leftover chicken is to dice it, toss it with 1/4 cup of Frank's hot sauce and some blue cheese crumbles, then zap in the microwave until hot. Band friendly, healthy, buffalo style chicken.

Spicy things shouldn't affect the band at all.

Did anyone try drinking beer? I can't imagine never having a beer again

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
