Alcohol

I know we shouldn't drink, but what is the best thing to drink should the occasion arise? I've had Skinny Girl Margarita & Wine....both still have alot of calories.

Very, very good stuff... Pay for quality not quantity! Fine Australian (of course) dry white wine is my preferred "lapse".

Vodka & cranberry w a twist of lime. ;0)

JJ. Still trying to figure that one out. Carbonated drinks of any type do not agree w me. So it has to be a light juice mixer or white wine. Even though I love red wine.

And the skinny girl margaritas are ok just doesn't contain much alcohol.

Here are some options.

Vodka, whiskey, tequila....all of these have no carbs. Have them with some low sugar juice...or some flat diet soda. I would stay away from drinking them straight because it can be hard on your sleeve, as well as they will hit you a lot harder now then before surgery. I know the doctors usually say to stay away from them as they can slow down the weight loss, but if you do it occasionally it shouldn't hurt. Just be careful of the possible cross over addiction. It is easy for wls patients to become addicted to other substances after surgery. I know that I drink about once a week...and it hasn't stopped me from reaching my goal. Good luck! And have fun!

careful, OK. Water with a twist of lemon is OK too!
