I bout a juicer. Surprisingly there is only one small thread a bout lap and juicing.

I am 1 year post op and haven't lost much. I don't really eat the proper foods, so I was thinking about going on a diet like the pre band fast, but then I started hearing about Clean Gut, buy Gwenyth Paltrow and her Dr. If you know who she is then you know that she is super healthy and she drinks a lot of green juices.

Any other banders juice?

How in the world do I get started? <staring at shiny new juicer>

I did juicing for about 6 months prior to deciding to do lap band. It was fairly easy to do but the cost was a bit extreme for me personally. A proper juice would use quite a bit of veggies, so I was going to the Farmer's market and buying in bulk. I did mention this to True Results and the Doctor there said it wouldn't hurt every once in a while, but that the band was most effective with chewed solids. I have no idea though, I hope everything works out for you! It took me a while to find some yummy recipes, I had to look on line because I kept making some and they were terrible! So I say go online and look some up! I just know I used a lot of ginger and a lot of green fruits and veggies. Best Wishes!

I occasionally get a fresh made juice at the health club after a workout,,,,many of my friends have juicers....

My reluctance is that I focus on protein...so I stayed with making my own fresh smoothies, all types of flavors and combinations.......40gm of protein!

if you eat your allotted amount of foods, eat better quality food, and let the band do its job (while you do your part), you wont need to do a diet....just my opinion.

juicing is good, its liquid..goes right on through

eating healthy/lean food is better.

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
