Beer or Wine



Recommended Posts

After the sleeve, does anyone have a beer or glass of wine once in a while.

I do, but I drink Bud select 55 or vodka with diet or rum with diet....it still makes me very sleepy later and the next day I have no energy. Everything else seems too sweet to me and since I count calories, its just not worth it.

Yes, I stay away from beer (causes too much gas) & I will have wine or Malibu & Diet Coke.

I was told no carbonated drinks what so ever but I can drink alcohol in moderation. So I'm anticipating that I'll drink wine and other mixed beverages that are carbonation free. I love my wine!

I have a glass of wine about every 2-3 weeks. I have had a few beers as well, but the bottled or can beers have way too much carbonation for my tummy, so the draft beer is a little easier to drink as it tends to have a little less carbonation. Just keep in mind that many sleevers tend to become a little addicted to alcohol after surgery, and there's also the whole "empty calories" thing. <_<

I drink wine. I just make sure to drink it after I have had all my Protein and Water and that I have the calories left.

I will have wine once I meet my goal or a treat @ 1/2 way. (maybe this weekend)

Beer sounds so yummy, but I haven't had carbonation for years and don't want to now.

Thanks for the responses. I guess I will be the designated driver most of the time. I do like to wine taste when I get out to California.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
