I was banded on 4/29, and today juice sounded wonderful to me. So I bought a 100% fruit juice (I think Everfresh), and had some (not even half), and while it tasted great, my stomach has just been kinda flip flopping. Is it because of the sugars in it? Is there a certain type of juice that is better for banders? TIA!

Any Juice that is sugar free or concentrated. NO SUGAR!

Maybe some crystal light or diet v8 splash, if you drink juice its a whole lot of calories, read the labels and you will see what i mean.

It was recommended to me to dilute fruit juice by half at first to avoid getting an upset stomach.

I buy 100% juices and dilute them with a lot of water. I find it gives the water some flavour. I usually do 2 oz of juice and 8oz of water.

Since the natural sugar will be diluted also, it may feel better on your stomach

Even though it has calories when watered down, I think it is a better alternative for good health than bevvies containing artificial sweeteners.
