    Hopefulin2021 got a reaction from JustSJ in One glass of wine....   
    White wine seems to be better for me which is weird because I was a strong red wine girl before. Wine has little to no effect on me so I’m not sure what all the hoopla was about. I have a half glass once a week sometimes I’ll finish a full glass ( about 6 oz) I do get a little tipsy but it doesn’t last long at all. I haven’t had any after affects and I definitely don’t eat more afterwards, if anything I’ve been eating less these past few weeks. I’m sure transfer addiction is real but it hasn’t affected me like that at all. I kinda despise eating and it’s more like a chore now.

    I wonder how it feel after being overweight all these years to finally be at a “normal” size again. I was pretty slim all the way until my mid 20’s then I just put on like 70 lbs over a course of 15 years and I didn’t really notice until about 5 years ago and been trying to lose ever since. I lost 20 lbs here and 30 lbs there but always put back more so I finally made the decision to have wls. Idk how I’m going to feel to be back to my normal weight it’s exciting and a little scary at the same time! How is it for you guys?

    Hey chanterelle! Everything is good I can’t believe we’re both almost two months post op! I’m feeling good, dropping the pounds I can see a lot of change so I’m happy about that. As far as food I am doing ok, still not meeting Protein or Water goals but I’m trying lol I feel great though no complaints. I’m eating about 500-700 calories a day , well 700 is a stretch but some days I get there lol how are you feeling????

    I have had about two more glasses of wine over the last two weeks and honestly I don’t feel anything at all lol I sip really slow and don’t always finish the glass but i feel fine, not sure what the big deal is I guess it’s different for everyone lol

    I had a glass of wine lol and it did absolutely nothing. I felt fine, wasn’t drunk or even a little buzzed at all but it was nice to be able to sip and feel normal. I’ll only have one glass if I’m out or there’s a special occasion. I Had Merlot and I sipped on that one glass for about an hour lol it was hubby and I date night so that was the reason. It was fine!!!’

    Yea true, I was basically wanting to know if anyone else had a small glass a month out of surgery. I haven’t had any complications and I don’t want to start now, I can wait lol. Thanks for the feedback!

    SO I’m about 6 almost 7 weeks post op and I really want a glass of red wine. Maybe like a Merlot or Cabernet Sauvignon something dry, how bad would that be? Remember this is a judgement free zone! Lol 😝

    I am sorry to hear you’re going through all that. Being in the hospital is not fun especially on top of all that. I was in the hospital for two days and I was released yesterday. I hated being there with the blood work and the shots to prevent blood clots not to mention the IV fluids freaking burned it was not a good experience but i made it through and so will you. I have been frustrated a few times just cause of the pain and not being able to move a lot and I’m not used to this. My husband has been wonderful and I don’t know what I would’ve done without him being here. I hope you have a strong support system because you will definitely need it. Like they always say this too shall pass, you got this girl stay strong.
