  1. Hello, My Dr. said that I need to stop smoking before the surgery, and then when I went in the week before I saw the PA and she asked how much I smoked and I said well I am down to about 2 cig's a day, and she said oh, ok, well it is not like you are getting the gastric bypass done, then you would have to quit!!! I am still smoking and I am fine.:tongue2: really I am!
  2. Hello, My name is Peggy, I had the surgery a month ago, and my Dr. told me not to have any alcohol for about a month and then so in moderation. My friends had the bypass thing done and they say not to have nay for at least a year. I am starting to have my wine again, maybe two glasses some nights, I know they are empty calories, but hello we have to have some fun sometimes...:tongue2:
