Orange Juice a NO NO for me

[IWannaBeSkinny 0]

I think I overdid it big time today. I am 4 days post op and I drank a glass of fresh squeezed OJ. I was already feeling kinda bad when I was making it...The feeling I used to get when I hadnt eaten in way too long. So, I took a few big drinks (with no water) and then it was down hill from there.

I pressed on and went to a friends to play cards and had to abrubtly leave because I felt/feel so nausious.

I came home and took a nasea pill and now am sitting here just "waiting it out"

Do you think it was from the sugar in the OJ? Or that I just overdid it today? It had been quite a while since I had "eaten" anything and it took a lot of work/standing to make the juice in the first place.

Thanks for that. I believe it was all due to the OJ now. My hubby said that I wasn't supposed to drink it, that the dieticion said that. But, I didnt remember at all. Then, when I looked online I seen you are not supposed to drink it post op.

I was able to "sleep it off" so that was good. I will mention it on monday at my follow up.

Was there a lot of pulp in the juice? That could have "clogged" you up... or maybe it was because you drank it too fast and your body wasn't used to it yet.

Glad you are feeling better now.

I think there may have been a lot of pulp. I strained it really well, but when i looked at it today, it was settled to the bottom and it looked like a lot

Whatever the reason, I am not going there again.

Thanks for your help!

I was told no OJ post op due to the acid in it. I hate apple juice and the other options so I didn't drink juice.

Hmm, no one told me anything about OJ and I've drank a lot of fresh squeezed since I got my band (Feb 08)

Never had a problem but then I drink everything slowly as even Water will give me a problem if I drink too fast
