LESLIEH 68 Posted December 29, 2010 Thx for asking that question I was wondering the same thing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M2G 1,836 Posted December 29, 2010 I do not drink orange juice, but I do drink orange flavored Benefiber, per my NUT's instructions. It reminds me of Tang (remember when you were a kid?) and it fits my diet plan. As for real orange juice I have no clue. I would imagine once you hit 6 weeks post-op it would be fine...don't forget to include it in your daily intake (or however you keep track.) My NUT is big on not drinking your calories. Honestly orange Benefiber, Water, and a short Decaf coffee once a day is all I ever drink. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MommyTawnie 3 Posted December 30, 2010 Greeting all, When can you drink orange juice? I'm six weeks post op. I plan on staying away from orange juice. To high in sugar I was told not to take in more then 8-10 grams of sugar at a time, however I'm wondering when I can have my grapefruit juice again...
