Alcohol is calorically more dense than fats or Proteins.

I was curious about the impact of alcohol on ketosis and did several different rounds of self-studies using keytone strips.

You may want to do your own self-study and see how it impacts you. Just make sure you have a baseline to go by before you begin testing after consuming alcohol.

So before anyone gives me ****. I'm a 24 year old party promoter in Los Angeles. Its my job to go out and drink. So I can drink pretty normally I was sleeved 1/26/13. I know how many calories are in my choice of booze (jameson- 64 calories/ounce) so I drink jameson and Water each one has two to 3 ounces of jameson. The calories add up quickly. But I still do it. There was a week where I didn't lose any weight because I was drinking to much. So now I try not to eat much on days I'll know I'll be drinking. The one amazing thing about the surgery. Is I'm never hung over. Its like my stomach is too small to hold the alcohol. I love it. So I say keep living your life and if you want to get snookie wasted one night then go for it!

I had a few sips of wine here at there at one month post op. I am now four months and I have a glass of red at dinner, perhaps 2 glasses on a weekend evening. No problems. I've had the rare cosmo as well.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
