I'm in preop phase, but a friend of mine goes to second hand or consignment shops on her lunch hour at work. She says she loves it.

I'm just beginning the whole process, so bare with me. And I know this sounds really stupid and am completely aware of how bad this is for me...but:) My biggest concern about having surgery is drinking after. I don't drink on a daily or even weekly basis, but probably 4 times per year have a day long binge social drinking activity ( tailgating, camping, a winter festival we go to etc). Usually is beer or hard cider and we drink a lot. Am I still going to be able to do that? It's really my only time to see my friends due to distance and children etc. Any thoughts?

Dr says not to drink period and really won't discuss anything about it. I just wanted to know if I would be physically able to and what would happen if I did. I fully understand that this is a commitment to a healthy life, which binge drinking doesn't fit in. I just wanted to try to see if others had any experience with it, whether or not I choose to do it post surgery. Thanks so much for your help, just trying to get an idea of what is in store for me.
