Drinking While Banded



Recommended Posts

I have a question!! I am going out with the hubby tonight to a concert and I haven't had an alcoholic drink in months! I was wondering if anyone has had any since being banded??

I've had a margarita and some wine. I don't drink beer or mixed drinks with carbonation.

Just remember you might now be a cheap date...half my pre-banded margarita and I'm loopy. So I stick with a sangria wine and ask them to add extra fruit.

Have fun!!

I agree, the 1st time I had a drink, after banding, I was semi-high with only one margarita!

Yesterday, Thanksgiving, I had one beer and 2-3 glasses of wine.

Thanks y'all!! I am not going to do any carbonated drinks, I am still antsy on those, I am a wine lover, so this makes me happy. My husband figured I would be a "cheap date", he isn't complaining LOL!!! Hope all had a good Thanksgiving!

All I can say is, make sure you have something in your stomach before you start drinking, i.e. eat dinner before you go to the concert. If you drink after not eating for several hours, you will be TRASHED in the blink of an eye. Seriously, I speak from experience! I did this on Halloween at one of our local bars...I had two glasses of wine over a couple hours and I was so drunk we had to leave. It's crazy how much alcohol tolerance changes after banding!

Watch out b/c your tolerance has prob dropped. Plus you r not eating as much so you'll get drunk quicker.
