My dr recommended 3 months but basically said I could do what I wanted after 6 weeks. I waited three months and half a glass of wine and couldn’t drink anymore. It felt really weird going down and I didn’t care for the sensation. I’m 6 months out now and. Can tolerate wine (2 glass limit). I’ve tried some vodka drinks but they are hard because all the mixers I like are either carbonated or have too much sugar. One dirty martini gets me fairly buzzed but I’ve noticed that it goes away fairly quickly. It’s pretty weird. I have the sleeve, not bypass. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I'm 4.5 months out and am going to have my first drink tonight while watching the Eurovision Song Contest (most Americans don't have a clue what that is, but it's a big deal for us back home, LOL). I'm going to be in Ireland in 8 weeks (I go home for the summer every year) and my brother and I like to go out for a drink, so I'm looking to see what my reaction is to alcohol now and what my tolerance is. I have a friend who had the sleeve 2 years ago. She gets buzzed very quickly, and then sobers up equally quickly (like in 15 mins). It's pretty funny to watch. I'll report back tomorrow, LOL.

My English isn't good if you don't understand anything tell me and I rephrase it [emoji28][emoji28] The hardest part was at the beginning to learn when to stop eating, because with less of 1 oz of food I was full and vomit if I eat a little more. The easiest is to buy clothes now🤣🤣🤣🤣. Well I think is not easiest part, but when you start to feel better, physically, your self esteem. My pre diabetes and my high blood pressure dissapeared, you feel better. I think people treat me the same, some think I make a good decision, others I feel are waiting me to fail. But I hope to have enough discipline to keep doing it well. You have your surgery done? Sent from my SM-N950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I take the pro-care and you can buy them on this site. They have all the rda needed after rny. Good luck!

My doctor hasn't said specifically, only that it'll cause you to get drunk faster and to be careful. I don't drink alcohol so it's not an issue for me.

Hang in there love, just keep your goal in front of you. am 9 weeks out and i had same issues at 4 weeks postup. Just keep trying several things till you stabilize. I wish you all the best, but just know it'll get better.

Sure it's normal. It's a big deal. It's a major surgery and it's going to have a big impact on both your immediate future and the rest of your life. Take a deep breath . . . you've got this!

My two cents on what to expect five years out…for whatever its worth. I feel real and head hunger. I have since I was six months out, I had to find ways to satisfy hunger. Eating Added carbs and sugar will cause hunger and make you crave them more. Detox off them Ditch soft proteins, shakes and bars. Years out they will never keep you feeling full. Eat dense protein with the other foods on your plan. Eat as much veggies as you want until full. It will help keep your calories in range. Keep healthy sweet and salty items on hand for cravings It’s very common feel less sleeve restriction as you progress out from surgery. It’s not full size but you can hold more food volume. Just because I can eat more food does not mean I have to eat over my weight loss/maintain calories and macros and gain weight. I log my food in myfitnesspal.

I just pureed what I made for the family. A roast puréed with the juice was amazing! Cooked carrots were good too!

I had RNY a week and 2 days ago. I’m so thirsty ALL THE TIME. I know I’m not dehydrated because I hardly ever stop drinking. I’m not currently taking any vitamins. Could I be deficient? My dr. never mentioned anything about vitamins after surgery.
