Has anyone tired juicing ? Do you recommend it I'm 2 months post op and I've lost 40 pounds. I really really don't want to just juice all day. since liquids including Protein shakes do fill me up and leave me satisfied I was wondering if I could leave the protein and just juice ?

I asked my Dr about juicing and he said it might have too much sugar. Congratulations on your weight loss.

Juicing is a ton of sugar. It gives you a big sugar rush because there's no fiber to slow down the absorption rate. If you want to stay on protein shakes a little longer before going to real food contact your surgeon and make sure he has no issues with it.

It doesn't have to have a ton of sugar. I used to incorporate fresh vegetable juice for micronutrients. Makes you feel great.

I would suggest using veg or berries with Protein powder. Not sure of your plan and fresh veg but I can add a little berry banana or veg to protein smoothie.

But if you mean straight juicing I would think unless very watery with low carb veg and with some added protein probably too many calories and carbs.
