No juice here.

Might as well drink sugared Water.

I was told no juice as it contains too much sugar. However, I was at a friends house for brunch yesterday and she offered me about 4 ounces of Trop 50, blended with Syntrax vanilla Torte and it was delish!

It had Protein and less sugar/calories/carbs than plain ol' OJ. And it kicked that "I want Breakfast with a cup of O.J." craving I was having since before surgery.

Regular orange juice made me reallllly sick! Worst case of dumping. I accidentally drank it during week 1 post surgery. I wouldn't advise it. I have had trop50 with no problems but still in small amounts and diluted with ice cubes.

I was told no juice due to its high calorie and sugar content. My NUT did say if I'm really really craving it, to dilute it. 1oz of juice to 8oz of Water. However be careful with citrus, it might not sit right.

Just for your info, generally diabetic patients will drink OJ to recover when they go hypoglycemic because it has lots of sugar and the sugar in juice gets absorbed into the bloodstream so fast. For that reason alone, I would stay away from it. I am sure apple juice and grape juice (and probably any fruit juice) would be the same.

Just guessing here, but if you were to drink it, I would really dilute it (like 1 part OJ to 4 or 5 parts water). Probably not worth it diluted that much though.

Some of the other solutions recommended above sound like great ideas.

trop50 is ok according to my nutritionist... use the 10gms and under rule... (even tho they say 15 and under.. i play it safe with 10 and under) and maybe add a little Water or ice cubes

I was just told no juice as well. Empty calories and too much sugar. However, I got a sample of the orange creamcicle Protein Drink they have. I'm going to drink it tomorrow for Breakfast. :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
