When can you drink something like OJ? I am one month out and craving it!!!

You can generally drink anything like that now; however, you may want to check with your NUT if they want you having something so acidic at a month out. If they ok it, I recommend cutting it with some Water. It is loaded down with sugars (natural or not) and can be pretty hard on the stomach.

Good Luck!

I was told i could have the low acid low pulp one after Clear Liquids but diluted. Instead though, I am squeezing some orange into my Water now to give it a nice taste.

I don't drink orange juice because is acidity and it's loaded with empty calories. I do eat a few slices of oranges and they are really good to. Satisfies that desire for OJ. It does irritate the stomach too.. ;)

You may also want to try True Orange crystals for orange flavor. It's made by the same people who make True Lemon, which is super tasty for lemonade. It's basically crystallized orange and a really nice add in with none of the sugar or calories.

some is OK, I would limit it to a few ounces though... sugar content and all.

I am 6 weeks out. Was craving oj badly, took a sip and I felt Nauseous I couldn't eat for the rest of the day. I love oj by the way. I guess it's another sacrifice. 36lbs down and happy about that though

      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!
