I'm about 5 months post op... My 21st birthday is in 6 months which will make it 11 months post op & for my 21st birthday of course I want to go out & have a drink.

What drinks settle good? & you haven't had problems with? Just need opinions on drinks..

To the ppl that have negative comments don't try it with me...

I'm sad to say that my first time drinking post-op I basically got wasted on a pineapple and Malibu :-( Try a Cadillac margarita with a double shot of patron, those are awesome!

Awww! Yeah' date=' I think I might go with wine![/quote']

White wine irritates Sleeve Perry but red wine, my fave, is just fine.

Just make good smart choices.

Ohhh that's smart!!! Thanks <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

I just saw crystal light in the store and they make alcohol flavors now! Too soon to get my drink on but great idea!

I was told I could drink 1 month out. That seems crazy! And yea you go on with your bad self! 21 and feeling good. You deserve a cocktail! I find things to be 0 calories on your 21 bday but that's my math. Have a wonderful time! I like the crystal light idea!

Dasani makes coconut pineapple drops and mixed with the water/vodka your having yourself a carb free piña colada

I tried to drink a Mojito yesterday, but started to feel drunk after about 2 ounces and had to throw it out.

Yeah alcohol seems to work much faster now

Try a skinny girl margarita. Worked for me yesterday. Didn't hit me too hard as long as I went slow. Effects were the same as before surgery. Still made sure I got my protein in before I started.

Love. It . gurl.

I seem to get a mini buzz about an oz into a nice glass of red wine but then nothing. I gave up white wine on my pre op diet and now only drink red. We are wine lovers so now that I drink way less of it we have been splurging on nicer wines and I enjoy them. Just not as often. :-)

Thank you everyone for your ideas!!!! Even though my birthday is months away lol... I plan early as you can see!!!
