[jasleeve 440]

i always have the biggest craving for orange juice!!! is it forbidden? i want it so bad.

those who know me know i cant have it right now because i have a stent that is being removed today but i definitely want it soon!

I am hesitant due to the carbs but also the acidity...george (my sleeve) hates acidity.

im worried about the acid. i want to try it badly though lol. i have an addiction to juice & every so often (even pre surgery) i crave a glass of oj & that craving has besn crazy lately! i feel like i could drink an entire gallon of oj with how im feeling! lol.

I eat and drink just about anything, but am hestitant about orange juice. Not because of acid, but because the juice is so high in sugar. I had to juice all the oranges on my trees and turn them into ice cubes. I plan to drop the cubes in carbonated Water during the summer (or hopefully hot spring).

If you want to try a tiny bit, use real oranges, squeeze it yourself and dilute by half. Bottled OJ is full of chemicals and stored in huge tanks.

I got a juicer for xmas.I should juice more, I haven't juiced much. Well, to drink. My skin is krazy soft, however, lol.

In my defense, I had no idea you couldnt juice a banana. (sorry hubby )

My tummy loved it, acid and all. I got the Tropicana 50 - it's lower sugar and "lighter" tasting. Maybe if you just dilute regular OJ it would be good? I know...I crave it sometimes. Maybe it's the Vitamin C we're wanting?

My NUT told us that citrus is an irritant to our stomaches. But I do squeeze some lemon in my Water and love it. I would dilute OJ down to cut the carbs and acidic.

i dont worry about carbs cuz i dont eat since i been diagnosed with a leak. im actually in the hospital now. they just removed my stent. im down 55lbs in 2months. irs worth the treat.

Omg before surgery Simply Orange was the only juice I would drink. Now I want a huge glass with extra pulp sooooooo much!

I have always squeezed fresh lemon into my Water and have been wondering if my sleeve would tolerate it now. Do you have a problem with plain water at all? I can't drink it at all and I hate all of the sweet drinks like mio and CL. Maybe lemons will be the answer to my prayers!

[Ms skinniness 3,003]

Bedhead: Yes, I do have a problem with Water, my sleeve doesn't like it. So buy deceiving it by adding some lemon, gatorade G2, or mio, I can get more in. When my body is hydrated, it's very, very, very, happy . Hope this helps.

Congrats on getting your stent out!! I know you have to be so happy!! AND congrats on your 55 lb loss! That's phenomenal!!!!! I haven't tried OJ yet,I'm only almost a month out. But for some reason I have to put hot sauce on everything I eat,and I soak all the meats I cook in lemon juice to make them tender. I have an obsession since my sleeve with sour and spicy! My sleeve loves it!
