I Need A Glass Of Wine...lol ;)

[AmyRae 1]

I had gastric bypass September 12, 2011...I have done great with it...I'm down 100 pounds! My doctor said no alcohol for the first year, but now that it is summer, I really want a glass of wine. Anyone out there have any suggestions? Did you really wait a year??? Thanks

Be prepared if you drink any alcohol....it affects you in very big ways in even shorter times. I have become quite the "cheap date" since my surgery...lol

I just read in one of my books that one drink can be the equivalent of 5!! Start with a teeny tiny bit!! I think the reason they say a year is because alcohol has lots of calories and no nutrients so it can thwart your weight loss efforts. So I think I little would be fine...just be careful!! Cheers!!
