My surgeon said no alcohol for six months. There are a number of reasons behind that recommendation.

  • Internal healing takes quite a long time and drinking alcohol prior to the pouch being completely healed is an invitation for ulcers.
  • All forms of alcohol are essentially sugar which can result in dumping.
  • Alcohol is empty calories with essentially no nutritional value.
  • And since it hits you so much faster and harder than it did before, it can make it more difficult to follow the protocol.

All good reasons and I would not encourage anyone to drink alcohol prior to six months out. I enjoy a glass of wine with dinner. But I didn't even try it until I was six months out. We all have to make our own decisions but it's a good idea to consider all of the pros and cons.
