Personal choice for me is I'm not drinking... Wasn't really much to drink a glass so not a big deal. I will say I have read many studies of high rates of addiction to alcohol with rny patients. I think it's a waste of calories and pouch space.

Docs recommend 6-12months before trying but theres people who have tried at 5 months and are doing good just watch wat you drink cause sometimes it has to many carbs and it will make you dump. I miself would like a drink in a future maybe at a party or reunion but I dont feel I would get addicted. I would say when ur ready take it slow with moderation and pay attention to how you feel. Well thats my opinion

Before surgery I would drink a glass of wine every now an then.. I don't think it would lead to an addiction !!!

Studies don't fabricate. And there are plenty of them out there. alex the founder of this site has posted numerous articles on this subject. Research for yourself only you can make the decision.

I had a glass about 3 months post op, the alochol did not affect me any differently from pre op to post op. You just need portion control and alcohol is empty calories so drink smart !!

I tried beer out of curiosity & nothing happened other than I felt full & guilty because of no nutritional value & worthless carbs. No "buzzed" feeling at all. Not worth messing with in my experience.
