Is the nutribullet safe to purchase for making healthy drinks after having bypass

It has been 3months since my surgery and ofcourse I have lost over 60lbs. I am thinking of purchasing the nutribullet but the last time I was with my nutritionist she stated no juices. Which I did not ask her why wishing I did because I really thought that y would be ok to make healthy drinks can anyone tell me why no juice or is it ok for me to get the nutribullet.

A nutribullet isn't a juicer. It is more a personal sized blended and would be great to purchase. Typically when "no juices" is said, it is referring to fruit juice as it is so sugary/ full of carbs. However, making shakes is a great way to get your protein in. You can also look up hand blenders or immersed blenders.

thanks so much for replying i had no idea and of course did not want to purchase off line and then find out by my nutritionist that i can not use it so that was very helpful.....

This is a great idea for you. I bought one soon after surgery and use it for making my unjury shakes. Also good for plain yogurt and berries. You can use frozen berries of any type. Just don't add sugar. Good luck.

I am getting a little discourage but staying on track i am getting my protein in and drinking lots and lots of water and bought myself a elliptical and a treadmill for xmas since i work 2 jobs in the beginning after surgery i was walking 5 miles a day then started a 2nd job last month so i am missing the gym and walking decide to turn a room into a gym got one more thing i want to buy to complete my gym and that will be something for toning.

Hello! I hope you are still doing great! I am over 10 years after roux en y bypass and just bought a nutribullet rx. AND, I posted a very similar question on the veterans forum just a bit ago. I am still looking to be sure that it is okay to use it as I remember that I can't absorb all things like I used to be able to do pre-surgery. HAVE YOU TOLD YOUR ACTUAL NUTRITIONIST ABOUT IT AND WHAT DID SHE SAY? Thank you in advance!!!!
