This is something you need to discuss with your nutritionist.

My sister is vegetarian, and she had bypass about 15 years ago. She still has trouble getting in enough Protein, and her hair is still very thin and unhealthy looking (she is a hairdresser, so I figure if she can't make her own hair look good, it must be really bad).

I believe that the reason juicing isn't a good idea is not the size of your stomach, but because it is very easy to drink too many calories.

Well iam not worried about the calories per say bc when i juice i dont really use any. Fruits unless its a tiny leamon or nit even a half of apple i uice only for the Vitamins strickley so i probably will end up still juicing for diease prevention i feel i will need more bc of the nutrition definenxy

I'm vegetarian. I get in 100gm of Protein daily, but I supplement with 100% unflavored whey isolate. Juicing isn't a good idea because it's all concentrated sugar with none of the benefits of the Fiber and roughage you would get from eating the fruit or veg whole. Even vegetables will contain sugars. You'd benefit more from eating a balanced diet and the occasional salad.

I am not a vegetarian, but I do juice once or twice a week. However, I didn't juice during the majority of my weight loss phase. I am in maintenance now and just make sure when I juice I log my calories and so far I have been fine. I even do the occasionally fruit juice. I always save my pulp and add it to my homemade Soups and if I do fruit I use the pulp and add it to homemade whole grain muffins (mostly my family eats those).

I haven't had any problems. I think if I juiced everyday it would be too many carbs for me and I would rather eat my food. LOL

Good luck.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
