meps413 46 Posted September 6, 2014 Hi! I'm brand new to the forum. I was sleeved on aug. 7th, and overall I've been doing well. I'm down almost 30lbs. Here's my question: I know I'm not supposed to have any alcohol. But I'm going on a bachelorette tomorrow. How much would one drink hurt? I'm not driving anywhere, and will be having dinner first. I'm sure I'm better off not risking it, but it's going to be hard to be on a party bus full of free liquor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sunflowerchild 146 Posted September 6, 2014 I am 5 weeks out right now and I would feel very uncomfortable having a drink at this point. I had some liquid NyQuil (which contains some alcohol) about a week ago when I was sick and it burned in my stomach after I took it. Being so close to your surgery date I would think it could be dangerous because you could still be healing. It might be a good idea to ask your NUT because everyone's plan is different and everyone heals at a different pace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
