I am 12 days post opp, was craving Lemon juice, had two squeezed lemos on 8 oz of Water.

Any thoughts on this? Could this be bad for my sleeve?

You crave lemon juice? ? That's a little weird in and of itself. I've craved a nice tall Tom Collins before, but could it be a Vitamin C deficiency leading you to citrus?

I don't think it would be bad unless your drinking straight lemons or lemon juice. Then, I'd worry about the acid, but if its diluted in Water or squeezed over food then I don't see an issue.

During my 10 day full liquid period before surgery I was craving Pickle Juice. I drained a jar before surgery. I have wanted it a few times since surgery but not so much after i got out of the liquid stage where everything was SO sweet. Just want to add I am the only person in my house that eats pickles!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
