Hello! Just signed in! I am scheduled for my surgery on September 24! I am so ready! One fear - wine! I love my wine but have a feeling that will be gone......................... Just wanted to introduce myself!

Welcome to the forum! I bet you're so excited! I still havent gotten a surgery date. Going through the pre op testing and supervised weight loss program. I finish that at the end of september and then they will submit to insurance. There is alot of info on tjis site and everyone is so willing to answer questions. In addition a history search will help you with info you are looking for! Where are you located?

It's a very short window where ur not urged to drink alcohol (cept beer, can't ever have that). I'm 5 weeks out and plan on enjoying a margarita now and then in the future. I'm not really into wine, but I'm sure it's fine, in moderation. You stomach is smaller now so be careful. You're liable to get tipsy faster!

welcome!

My daughter came home last week to help me with surgery etc... She brought me three beautiful bottles of Sonoma County wines. I too wonder when I will get to taste my new wines but am figuring it will be awhile.

I am from Alabama! I have everything done and ready to go, ordered my ninja blender and will shop for food prior to surgery
