Omg... I used a straw

Was sleeved 5 days ago... Went to my great nephews birthday today ... He turned 2...... My niece had apple juice that was organic no added sugar... It was a juice box... As I was talking I took the straw inserted it... And drank the whole juice box not even realizing I was using a straw!!! Nothing happened... What do you think ?

  • That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger?????

  • My bariatric team says straws are ok. Just don't drink too fast. Generally speaking I'd stay away from apple juice at 5 days out - calories w/o Protein or Fiber. Juices in general I've been told

    I've been using a straw since day 1. I also wouldn't worry about the calories this early out as mentioned above. I drank watered down fruit juice in the hospital because I couldn't stomach water.

You can use a straw according to Dr Mathew Weiner. He has several you tube seminars on gastric bypass. Check them out they are so informative.

Hoping you continue with what appears to be a speedy recovery!

I use to drink from a straw for 4months so straws are good just go easy,..and good luck :)
