Hello all! This is my first Forum topic. I've been reading your posts and so forth for over a year while mentally preparing to take this step. I'm still scared as hell, but excited too as I know that surgery is the right tool for me. I'll be starting orientation with Richmond Kaiser in a couple of days. So anyone reading this from my neck of the hoods please introduce yourself, I need as much support as possible.

Anywho, on to the question. I've recently acquired a juicer and find juicing to be super delicious and healthy. I'm wondering if anyone out there has used juicing to get some of the nutrients we need after surgery or is it a no no? I've noticed that sometimes the juices I make can be super sweet (Beets, carrots, apple, and parsley juice this morning was like drinking candy! Yummy!).

Thanks for reading. Can't wait to read your responses.

Hi Everybody, I'm 2 wks post op and I've found my tastes have changed. I use to do a really healthy green smoothie every morning, now it makes me nasuas, I'm hoping its just the raw veg and once I'm more healed will be able to enjoy it again. Been doing a good quilty whey protein and organic greek yogurt instead. More calories, but I figured at this point I'm really not getting in many calories at all. Anyone have an opion or thoughts on this? I'm feeling much better, but still not myself,

ooo that sounds like a great idea, im defiantly buying a juicer post op!
