Lookaway 2 Posted December 11, 2011 It's been 9 days since I've been banded, and would very much enjoy one small glass of a nice Merlot. Too soon? Has anybody tried it and have any side effects from it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
honk 780 Posted December 11, 2011 At day 9 I was still on full liquids; so I would say having wine at that point would have have a no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lollicatt 36 Posted December 11, 2011 I did and it was fine. I only had about half a glass but I didn't even feel anything from it. 1 Lookaway reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vlp1968 83 Posted December 11, 2011 In my opinion it's not going to harm the band or anything. I would factor in the calories though, and they are empty calories. Use moderation for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corrigan 75 Posted December 11, 2011 A glass of white wine has about 125 calories and probably some antioxidants so i'd say one glass is probably good for you (if you keep it to one). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
