Amanda61082 28 Posted March 15, 2012 I have only had two drinks since surgery (4wks ago), and one time I ordered a Skinny Margarita, and the second I ordered white wine. It is tricky though because you can't drink when you eat, and you can't drink 30 minutes prior, so I had a hard time figuring it out. I found that I was just holding the drink and not even drinking it, but I still felt like I was part of the group, so it worked out! I hope it helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonna 4 Posted March 15, 2012 I have had margarita's with no problems, however I don't hardly even get a whole one down. I also don't do it often, probably since surgery which was about 9 months ago I've only had maybe 4 or 5 drinking occasions. Have fun on your vacation!!

Knaroz 31 Posted March 15, 2012 My new favorite is Long Island teas no ice no coke. Be careful 1 you will be fine, 2 and you will not need to drive, but 3 and you probably wont remember where you are lol They are mean. 1 shues138 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lovebug17 13 Posted March 15, 2012 How long after surgery did you guys wait to have your first drink . I'm going away next weekend for a friends birthday and wasn't sure if it was too soon I had my surgery on Tuesday and I would be just under two weeks out . I don't wanna ruin anything and I really don't need to but if one glass of wine won't kill me then why not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JennyBee 340 Posted March 15, 2012 I had 2 glasses of red wine exactly 2 weeks after my surgery.... Tasted like heaven. I had no problems:) have fun!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Knaroz 31 Posted March 15, 2012 Just be very careful and after you drink the wine try to drink a good amount of Water to flush the pouch out. I would be a bit worried about letting the acidic wine sit in a fresh pouch. Could cause some irritation. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
