my name is Joyce. I am having Roux NY surgery on August 19, 2024. I am doing the 2 weeks pre op diet and I am drinking water with Electrolytes, protein drinks, and orange juice besides having 64 oz of water. I am diabetic, and my sugars have been very good, but my only question is, why am I drinking orange juice? The only answer I can think of is for the Vitamin C. I would rather drink something else that won't raise my sugars every time. Any suggestions? I have had to drink a bottle once in a while at night, because my sugars drop too low.

That is great question. I looked at multiple pre-op diets from google search and they vary differently on juice. From have juice, have diluted juice or no fruit juice.

This would be a good question for your provider or nutritionist.
Do you have access to them via a portal to ask question?

Joyce, I hope you are well. How did your surgery go on August 19, 2024? Any tips for at home recovery?
