To Soon For Glass Of Wine After My Lap Band Surgery?

It's been 9 days since I've been banded, and would very much enjoy one small glass of a nice Merlot. Too soon? Has anybody tried it and have any side effects from it?

      I did and it was fine. I only had about half a glass but I didn't even feel anything from it.

    At day 9 I was still on full liquids; so I would say having wine at that point would have have a no.

    In my opinion it's not going to harm the band or anything. I would factor in the calories though, and they are empty calories. Use moderation for sure.

    A glass of white wine has about 125 calories and probably some antioxidants so i'd say one glass is probably

    good for you (if you keep it to one).
