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.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
