My dr allows you to have small amounts of alcohol 12-18 months out I was just wondering if after the surgery does a little go a long way does it in fact make you a "cheap date"?

drinks go to your head a lot faster. When you first have a drink make sure you are at home with someone you trust.

So nothing will change for me. I was always a cheap date being on 11 different Med's befor surgery alcohol was almost nonexistent 1 beer was like a six pack (great way to save money on booze) no fun at a bar

Have at it just please don't drink and drive.

My right leg still hurts from time to time thinking about the drunk driver that ran me down and drove off. Took almost a year & (6 surgerys) for me to heal and learn how to walk again with my right leg

DRINK but DONT DRIVE

It's strange how sensitive I am to the tinyest bit of sugar. But my favorite thing to drink is hard cidar. I prefer the sweeter kinds. It had 19g of sugar per bottle. Not a single problem. I'm thinking it just hits differently. But I thought I was going to be billy badass and drink three in a row. I was smashed!!! Stayed so for about an hour, then I had a hangover from hell. It hits fast and wears off just as fast.

Doctors often quote a ratio of 3 to 1. One drink post-op is like three pre-op. Be careful. There are some horror stories out there about bypass patients getting a DUI after one drink. If you're going to have even one drink, definitely best to give your keys to someone else.

Nah I'm a way more boring 21 year old. I'm so lame that on my 21st (8/6) I went bowling and had a glass of wine and didn't even get drunk.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
