I am 5 weeks post-op and doing well. I haven't had any citrus juice because it was not on the list of liquids provided by the dietician, I feared it had too high of a sugar content, and also felt it might be too acidic for a tender tummy. At what point is it safe to start having orange or grapefruit juice? I miss it so much!! Lyn

Lyn- Ohhhhhh how I craved orange juice post op!!! My doctor made me wait for OJ until I was on full solid foods. I was at about 6 weeks then. It really isn't in 'his plan' per se, but I confess, I did BEG! Do be careful if you decide to try it. The acidity and the sugar can get to you. Try it for the first time again well watered down. Good luck! Lisa C

Try Tropicanas SF Popsicles, they have Orange, Raspberry and Strawberry and I found the Orange satisfies my craving for OJ
