TommieT 30 Posted November 14, 2016 You may not be mentally or physically able to go! I had my gastric bypass surgery Oct 17th and still not comfortable with going around everybody. Not my cheerful self and still figuring out foods to nibble on. Good luck! Sent from my SM-N920T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
itsYaneris 71 Posted November 14, 2016 Hey I'm 3 weeks post op I went out last night for he first time I've lost 30 pounds so far. My advice is to go! It's something your going to have to get use it. I had the tinest sip of my sisters Long Island and it was actually gross I had no desire to drink. U can fake drink or say ur not drinking because of mess or something but don't let this hold you back Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ella37 455 Posted November 14, 2016 Not totally sure why you wouldn't be able to go, unless you're still feeling very bad. I'm a little over a month and can go out fine. Fake drinking seems ridiculous, is there really going to be that much peer pressure? Just tell them you're tired or you've been having some stomach problems and don't feel like drinking.

zelmad 3 Posted November 14, 2016 If you want to go, go. Take a lime or lemon get a glass of Water, put a slice on the rim. Unless you tell them they'll never no the difference. Select safe food you know you can eat safely. Remember it's a lifestyle change! Sent from my Nexus 6 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RNMomof4 86 Posted November 14, 2016 You should go and have a great time with your 30 lb weight loss! I would probably just claim a mild stomach issue. Can always offer to be the DD! Sent from my iPhone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joypod 9 Posted November 14, 2016 Maybe say you're finishing a course of antibiotics and can't drink while you're on them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
