leeblewb 9 Posted January 12, 2011 I would Water it down. One of the things they told us in the preop class I went to was that alcohol is absorbed much quicker, so a 1/2 glass is like a couple of glasses previously as far as affect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

myrori 55 Posted January 12, 2011 Oh boy is it ever fast! I had a vodka and cranberry juice the other night and the buzz stayed with me all night, one drink! After the buzz I got GROUCHY! My guess is Blood sugar spike and drop? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
we11ro 5 Posted January 12, 2011 I had a glass of wine and it was fine on my tummy but heavy on the head. So just sip slowly and make sure you have eaten prior. Of course...I would confirm with your nutritionist. Happy Birthday!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buchannon 17 Posted January 13, 2011 Sip slowly and you will be fine! Alcohol hasn't been a big deal for me with my sleeve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thinoneday 445 Posted January 13, 2011 I'm 6 weeks out and it's my birthday party do u think 1/2 glass of wine will hurt me? I was told not to drink alcohol until i was at least 3 months out. . .you being out only at 6 weeks I can't answer that question for you, you must make that decision. . however you could have juice resembling the same color as wine in a wine glass and make the best of it. . . just a thought. . . happy birthday to you though!!!
