Juicing fresh fruits and veggies

Do people have problems eating fresh fruit and veggies after the sleeve? Do you need to cook your veggies or can you eat them raw? Does a juicer work for getting your fruits and veggies in or are you supposed to stay away from veggies?

Thanks

I can only speak for myself on veggies, but I eat more of them now than I ever have in the past. (one year out but started veggies at 8 weeks)

Fresh veggies of any kind are the ONLY food I have found that never makes me feel sick.

I joke around with my sweetie that since having the sleeve, my stomach wants me to be a strict Raw Foods only person.

I also eat veggies lightly cooked (less mushy=better for me), and we have an Omega juicer that I use 4-5 times per week to get in some green leafys such as Kale. I usually juice 4 leaves and 1 (ONE) piece of fruit like an apple or an orange to take off some of the "green" taste that can be strong.

I also notice that when I do not get in as many veggies I don't feel quite as energetic, maybe because less veggies means I may be filling up on something else that rhymes with "arbs" and starts with a "C" /grin
