I'm three weeks post-op...can I chew sugar free gum?

Not sure on my end. But I have been told not to eat gun once you are banded.

I chew sugar free gum all the time i have not had any problems with to much air.

i was told not to chew gum because of the air intake but i chew with my mouth close and as i stated before i have not had any problems. But there is some people who can eat bread and some who cant so try chewing a gum and see if it works for you.

dr told me nooooooo gum too much air and dont drink out of a strawwwwwww

The problem with gum isn't the calories or the air so much the fact that if you accidentally swallow it it will most likely get stuck!
