I was sleeved in Nov. 5 & had my first glass of wine on Thanksgiving.... So just a few weeks later. I was completely fine... Moderation is key.

I had a glass after a few months and was fine. I stay away from it until I'm at goal so not to slow my already slow weight loss.

I had about 2 oz of wine at 6 weeks and was fine. Had about 4 oz. wine again recently at 8 weeks and got a bit of a buzz from it. The other day I went out and had about 1/2 of a long island iced tea and I felt more of a buzz, but I'm really not noticing this huge affect I was expecting.

I get buzzed faster just because it's been so long since I've drank like a lush.

My surgeon said at a month out I can have some wine or hard liquor (I'm a plain vodka kinda girl) but just watch sugar and calories. I'm 3 weeks out tomorrow and will let you know in a week how I feel!!! ; )

Sleeved April 4, had my first glass at 2 months. I have found my taste buds are different now I can't tolerate sweet wines. No buzz on one glass, but boy did it taste Good,!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
