I Understand you shouldn't drink it but what if youre out with the girls and you want a drink? I understand that there is extra calories involved that you shouldnt have with your diet. PS I hate wine! I am a former beer drinker

You might have noticed how these overly sensitive perfect people on here tried to rip me a new one becuz I said I had my 1st drink @ 3 weeks..and I will say again I had my cocktails already..worked out next day..no weight gain..5 weeks out and still have my cocktails and lost 13 lbs from week 3 to week 5..I say do you! Sip slow and I'll suggest u have something on the rocks!! These people on here can be so judgmental I'm not peeping thru your window when u take a bite of a ham sandwich b4 u reach 6 weeks so don't a girl and her cocktails....POW! And in that order...drops the mic!!

Haha I love your post!!!!!

I am pre-op, but LOVE Grey Goose mixed with SoBe 0 calorie lifewaters. There are a ton of different flavors. My favorites are yumberry pomegranate & black and blueberry. They have vitamins and your hydrating at the same time as getting a buzz on, lol! It's a win, win!

@OTR..LOL no not the cologne referring to a user on here

"I Understand you shouldn't drink." So the answer is "Water."

Lmao! How I love your answers!

Yum I'm going to have to give that a try :-)

I may like the vodka and Sobe I will have to try that one. Tequila makes me crazy, lol

My doc said absolutely not until 6 weeks. Ur stomach is not healed toooooo early. I'm 6 weeks and had my 1st vodka crystal light and it burned. I'm an experienced drinker too lol

No food bothers me and since I already tried it same with alcohol. I sort of wish it did. Now I couldn't drink it down like I normally would but still burn free.

I just want to say for the record to anyone who will listen that I, at age 37, had TOTALLY OVER did it back in June. (I'm still pre sleeve). I swear I haven't been that sick since high school. I swore off drinking alcohol. It was over a month later when I tried again. Mainly to tell my brain that I'm overreacting. I wasnt.

Lesson: pre sleevers go on a big bender and develop an aversion. Worked for me

:)

My doc said alcohol is ok just beware of the liquid calories and stronger effects. As for carbonation, he said that since the sleeve is still relatively new, we don't know what the long term effects are. Maybe stretching, maybe something else, we just don't know.
