My doctor said one month. I went 3 weeks and had a glass of wine with my friends. No problems but it is empty calories.

I was told a year by my nut. I've been secretly having a little wine though

My doctor said 1 month out. I had 3 glasses of wine 2 months out and was fine

Is that all at once? With the sleeve, 3 will probably cause pretty severe intoxication. Heck, one glass of wine makes us drunk.

I had 1 glass of champagne at 4 months and it made me so sick, and it tasted like vinegar. Haven't touched anything since.

One glass of wine does not get me drunk. 3 shots of whiskey though does the trick

I had a vodka cranberry last weekend and didn't get sick or even tipsy. It seems like some people get drunk faster and some ppl it isn't any different than before surgery. For me it's the latter...so unfortunately I'm not as cheap of a date as I wanted!

What about a pint of Guinness? Or two? Anyone know impact? Have not tried any beer post sleeve yet and maybe Guinness is too bubbly.

I experimented at about 7 mos preop. I used to enjoy beer- not so much now. It just doesn't taste good. I stick to patron gold. I get buzzed pretty quick, but I rebound quickly. I tried a margarita while out with the girls and it was too much. I felt sick. So, I stick to my old reliable- TEQUILA! ;)

I used to enjoy apple martinis on business trips. Those were really good. I am not much of a drinker since being sleeved, but it is nice to only need one.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
