Drinking Non-Carbonated Alcohol

How long did you wait after surgery to have a drink? What was it? Did you tolerate it ok?

      i want to say the rule from my surgeon was like 6 weeks after surgery but i cannot recall for sure. If i made it the whole time i'd be surprised - i'm sure i indulged a little earlier than i should ha

    Watch how much you drink, I had not been out for like a month and a half, my generous friends kept buying me drinks. I felt it a lot sooner, I slept well that night...lol.

    I too drink vodke and crystal light. When I drink the weight does not come off. I have no problem with the band but a few drinks and the calories add up fast!
