I havent had any liquor since Jan 1 and my surgery was Feb 5. Im going to a wine tasting party tomorrow with my friends. Is it ok to have a glass of wine? Preferably Merlot :)

Or is it not a good idea?

It's true that you need to get to know your band, learn how to listen to it, and learn how to live day by day....then you will know the answer to that question...

I agree - enjoy, just figure in the calories for the day and of course realize it's empty calories and not something to indulge in too often. On the beer- most docs say carbonation is out- stretches the pouch. That means no beer, no champagne- no soda sorry

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
