I am three months out and my doctor said at this stage i can have citrus. Was wondering has anyone tried orange juice and what happened. I love orange juice and tired of drinking crystal light and water. Please let me know.
I rarely have juice but I always dilute it to half and add a packet of equal for sweetness. I won't chance the sugars but many people do ok. Personally, I prefer wylers orange drink mix to juice.

I didn't drink any juice for like a year and a half out. I was afraid the sugar in it would slow down my weight loss. I know people seem to drink it now right out of surgery but I was scared of it.
I'm eight months out. I tried OJ several months ago and the smell made me . I tried to cut it with H2O and it still tasted too sweet. For now, OJ is a casualty of surgery.
Unless you can find a "No Sugar Added" or "Sugar Free " orange juice, I would stay away from it. Too much sugar, and even if you dilute it, the taste probably won't satisfy you. I won't taste like the OJ you love.
