. Will have the sleeve in April. I've read that after the sleeve it is much easier to get drunk with little alchohol. Is that too? Do you lose the taste for wine? Should I not have any when I go out to dinner? Thanks

I am 5 months post op. I have had both wine and mixed drinks (vodka tonics are my favorites). I find that if I eat something before I drink I do better. If I drink on an empty stomach, it hits me pronto!

Drink up. You will go out of ketosis and profoundly impact your weight loss. Do it on a regular basis and you will have lots and lots of very long stalls. Or even better, gain a new addiction.

You don't have to be in ketosis to lose weight. Not everyone is a puritan.

I've done quite a bit of personal research on the topic. That doesn't make me a Puritan. That makes me informed. But you are correct in that you do not have to be in ketosis to lose weight. However, regular consumption of alcohol will have an impact.
