Lemon- is it OK to have post RNY?

My doc says to avoid ALL citrus for at least one year after WLS because it is too acidic. I hear about people using lemon in their water or tea, or even having lemonade! What's the deal? Is having a slice of lemon worse than having lemon juice in your water? What about powdered lemonade?
