How soon after surgery did you take your first drink?

I am 6 months out now and I started drinking pop slowly again at almost 5 months. Some may say thats too soon or you shouldn’t, but I like pop and Its not hurting me

I'm a year and a half out. Per guidance, I had avoided alcohol and carbonation. My daughter and I we're on a cruise, and I decided to enjoy a mimosa with her on our balcony. I had about half a glass when the pain hit my stomach-- Lesson learned for me-- no more than a sip of bubbles. And no more than a sip of alcohol.

Im 17 months post op and haven't tried any carbonated products. I don't plan on either.

But as said by many others : the choice is entirely yours.

i made peace with my fondness for pepsi before the surgery. the doc said no carbonated drinks or straws anymore because of the air bloating you up. im drinking hawaiian punch sugar free.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
