So I'm enjoying a skinny girl cosmopolitan and I'm already down 20 pounds , so what is the big fuss about alcohol if your body can totally tolerate it ?!?!?!?

Empty calories

You are two weeks out....

I'm not even going to go here Nevermind!

Well if that's all the worry than I'm fine because I still want my curves and don't want to get to skinny I'm a size 12 so in no hurry to lose more ! I do go to the gym 4 times a week to tone and follow all the liquid and soft food diet !

Are you serious?? Are we being punked? Please tell me you are joking? 2 weeks?!?

Then why post anything if "your not going to go there " ?!??!

????? Not good for sleeve too soon

Sent from my iPhone 5 using VST

Okay we'll no one still hasn't given me an explanation besides empty calories !! And thank you for the answer by the way . People just want to post negative things but no answers to the questions . Psshh

And another thing the medicine .. Loritab liquid that they sent me home with contains 17 percent alcohol !!! So is there any proven fact that alcohol affect the sleeve ??? Need answers not just negative comments

I would ask your surgeon. However I really think 2 weeks is way too soon.

Your body needs to heal first off. Second it is empty calories. Why put your body through surgery if you won't follow the plan?

I'm not here to say anything negative. Just a few points. Your body has just been through a major surgery. Your new stomach is still healing. For me, I wouldn't try this in fear that I would damage my healing stomach!

Honestly because this has to be a joke. Your body needs to heal. Anyone who has this surgery isn't silly enough to start drinking two weeks out...I'm with the "punked" group. Ha ha! But really someone might read this and think it's real and that's not funny.

Obviously I'm on the right track if I'm down 20 pounds in 2 weeks ! The most important thing is not to stretch out the sleeve by eating certain foods that your stomach cannot tolerate . Which I have stuck to this diet . And work out 4 days a week . Just thought someone could give me some expert advice on how alcohol affects the sleeve in a negative way . If the alcohol was burning my insides or making sick in any way that would be a whole different story .

Your lortab is in a suspension liquid made safe for the gastric lining...also it is temporary benefit that out weighs risk.

Alcohol can ulcerate fresh wounds but you can do as you like its your body

After 8 weeks then the answer would be yes, but it is not recommended. Alcohol has many calories and will not help on your progress with your weight loss. Alcohol intoxication will also

hit you a lot faster with the VSG than other surgeries.
