I wouldn't recommend fruit juices at all. The sugar in fruit juice is comparable to drinking regular soda. Fruits should be limited. I know that many nutritionists allow fruits and juice but in reality I personally would not ingest such. If you ingest too many carbs (and carbs are just chains of sugars) then you sabotage your weight loss.

As far as eating tomatoes and such goes, I love the cherry and grape tomatoes. I don't find them to be acidic at all.

I do not drink juice at all, except an occasional 4 oz of low sodium V8...IMO it's wasted calories.

I drank a lot of all natural lemonade and limeade the first two weeks after sleeve surgery, its all I could drink pretty much diluted with Water outside my Protein shakes.. I was fine and I think it helped my stomach heal and gave me energy .. Now over three weeks out I drink a little here and there..Sugar Free drinks make me sick just thinking about them.. And I can afford the calories no problem ..

For me and and my nutritionist approved plan its all about getting my nutrition and Protein in and watching my calories.. But no problems with acidic drinks luckily!

I quit drinking all juices when I made the decision to lose weight.

The closest thing to juice that I'll occasionally have is Chic-Fil-A's Diet Lemonade.

Occasionally (like twice a month) I'll have a small glass of OJ. Small as in shot glass size. I drink it slowly to savor it. No problems unless I drink it too fast. One day I needed a drink and the only thing available was one of the kids juice boxes, way too sweet! Took my sip and passed it to a kids.

      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! 😞
