DetChatt 188 Posted December 24, 2012 I waited probably 6 months and had a bit of wine. I don't drink much anymore though. It hits me too hard after the weight loss. But I will have a drink if I'm out. I just avoid beer or fizzy things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FLORIDAYS 3,040 Posted December 24, 2012 Mine said nothing other than no beer and no alcohol the first week.... Was debating only 1/2 glass tomorrow and tracking it. Not sure yet Its pretty early on in my opinion but....it's just my opinion. 1 Maddysgram reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lassie 247 Posted December 24, 2012 when we go out for dinner I drink a glass of wine, about twice a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finallytime 134 Posted December 24, 2012 I agree that it is very early on. And I need to be mindful of eating and drinking. But I am trying to put into perspective the old me would have drank and eaten myself into oblivion this week with my husband having a heart attack and my dad being in the hospital and being as they are both going to be here tomorrow I am debating the 1/2 glass. Guess I will see how I feel about it tomorrow. But nice to know I made a chocolate chocolate chip cake from scratch today ( my favorite), 4 dozen Cookies, 3lbs of baked ziti, multiple dips and put candy out in all the holiday dishes and didn't so much as have 1 m&m.... Pretty sweet victory!! 1 Maddysgram reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maddysgram 6,159 Posted December 24, 2012 I have to agree with Floridays, 10 days post-op is a little too soon. Congratulations on not touching all the goodies you're making! You're at a critical time right now, stomach is still healing from surgery. They'll be plenty of Christmas to Celebrate in the future with Portion Control. Take care of you now.
