And? Nothing says you can't drink wine when you are banded. Just remember, calories.

Count the calories and move on! But they do add up fast, so moderation is the key.

I was wondering the same thing. I haven't drank since surgery, but I really want to enjoy a glass of wine or a margarita on vacation.

I had a glass of wine and it was just what I wanted. I was satisfied with a small glass and I moved on. :)

There's no carbonation, so the only concern is empty calories. I say drink up and enjoy!

Red wine works for me, some of the whites are too crisp and irritate my stomach, and margaritas are a little rough for my band as well. So take it very slow to see how you do. Oh, beware that the alcohol hits you faster because there's not much in your stomach and you're not eating while drinking!!

I have wine all the time, plus cocktails and beer.....it's all in the calories.....if you are still dieting / losing then you have to be aware...

Lucky to say I'm past that and try to live a "new normal life"....

If you are only enjoying a glass or two every now and again I wouldn't worry to much about the calories. If you are exercising 3 plus times a week you will burn those off. If I go out for girls night I always keep in mind of my intake throughout the day. I always ask though if something is carbonated. I had a bad experience with that. My stomach hurt all night after drinking a cocktail that had something carbonated in it. Enjoy that glass of wine!!!

Wine is something that I am not willing to part with. My weight loss is actually better with a glass of dry wine. ;)

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
