How long after surgery before I can have a glass of wine?

My doctor said two months and then be sure you're tracking it with your food choices. I account for every glass of wine I drink and adjust my fitness goals or eating goals appropriately. I am losing just fine but then I don't drink to get drunk, just to enjoy the wine, so that's maybe a glass or two verses tossing down a bottle (though that would help my liquid goals LOL)

If your doc says one year, ask them the logic behind that. OFten it's advised because the first year is the best weight loss period so they want to help you get to goal. Booze is kind of like candy...it may taste good but we don't need it right? My physician feels that moderation is key and given I''m a lower BMI that it won't effect me meeting goal.
