Can anybody confirm whether you are allowed to consume any alcohol ever again if you have a gastric bypass please, as my friends are telling me you can't?

All Doctors say different. I've heard 3 months, 6 months and a year.

I been having alcohol since 3 months. It's not an everyday thing. I was not advice not to drink. I do know alcohol hits me hard now after surgery but everything is small amount is good. If you read my fitness pal I got drink kept drinking & had half a bottle lmbo. Felt fine next day but wouldn't recommend to drink that much. Was celebrating how I made 6 months since WLS.

I had wine about 3 monts post op. The alcohol does not effect me any different post op. Just remember alochol is a empy calorie and moderation is key. I have a couple of wines during the week, I am 9 months post op and have no problems drinking alcohol what so ever.

You can eventually have alcohol but I recommend reading a new report from UPMC hospital out if Pittsburgh.
