banded july 28th

I was banded on July 28th, finding it hard to get through the pureed diet, don't seem to like much. I do have a question as to why they do not want you to have orange juice. I have had smoothies before with oj and find them more to my liking. :teeth_smile:

I think the reason you were recommended not to have OJ is because of its high acidity.:teeth_smile:

try blended chilli i hear that is good, or baked Beans.< /p>

OJ is high in carbs/sugar. I do not like the pureed diet either, so I just stayed on full liquids one week longer and then moved onto the next phase.

I have found it amazing how many different ways people have to eat after their banding. Makes you wonder which way is right.

I was told that the first 7 days I am on a clear liquid diet and orange juice is not clear!!:biggrin:

Hi! my doctor also stated only liquids that you could see through for the first 7 days. However, the next week the I was able to drink anything I wished. If the OJ bothers you the first time avoid it and try something else. Some people say the acid and sugar are too much. blessedmother
