Talk to your surgeon but from what I have been told, alcohol is not OK. Empty calories and carbonation.

Beer is a really bad idea for many reasons, but mainly carbonation and empty calories that our body processes into sugar. If you want an excellent answer then please consult your surgeon. Who knows they might say one beer per month is ok... Good luck to you.

I was told carbonation is bad, so once in a while I will have a sugar free lemonade mixed with a shot of vodka or something else.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
