All inclusive Cocktails



Recommended Posts

I'm going on my first vacation since my vgs surgery and it's an all inclusive resort. Are there any low calorie cocktails that I can drink? This will also be my first time drinking alcohol since my surgery 6 months ago-a little nervous and excited...

You should pack a couple bottles of mixer like: Skinny Girl mixers also Baja Bob's. Then you could always order a shot over ice and add your mixer. They have all kinds!

Anything distilled has the least carbs and calories (gin, vodka, tequila, etc..).

It's the mixers that you need to be wary of.

Best bet is to drink it straight up OR ask for it with either Water or soda water (NOT tonic water, lots of cals) and add lots of lime or add a couple drops of sugar-free water enhancers.

Very dry wine is relatively low in carbs and cals too.

AJ. No preachin, but you are flirting with the devil. And you're basically forkin your WL. There WILL come a time when the losses stop. And you are so gungho about changing your diet, but you need to look at the attitude to booze. I'm no saint, but I also know it's a fine line.

I agree working on it - Problem is love that Friday Vodka and juice to close out a week. I agree and have to really stop the fun, This is probably the hardest thing to stop doing plus i hate being told i cant do it so my rebel side comes out, Decided today to skip the after work cocktail hour and just go home. The diet and food thing is easy - Its the perks that are a b***h like Diet Coke, Vodka, Rootbeer. Tropical smoothie.

Ok Im going to go cry and curl in the corner - Just kidding Have a great weekend

      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.
