Has anyone tried wine can we have wine after surgery

[TurnThePage 220]

Alcohol use is discouraged after RNY for 2 reasons. Due to the plumbing changes, your body reacts very differently. You are likely to feel the impact very quickly and much more strongly than usual, especially in your early months. Secondly, you would be consuming calories with no nutritional value. That is normally explained quite clearly in the pre-op materials and discussions.

If you do a search of this forum, either alcohol or wine, and you'll find a pretty long thread of people's experiences. Most said to wait about three months but to definitely be careful and try it at home first. Some got really hammered on one glass.

You can have an occasional glass of wine but do not rush it if you are still early out.

Consult your WLS binder, ask your Nut. & surgeon first. More than likely they will recommend you to wait a good while just so your new plumbing can heal properly.
