First drink since surgery, i feel nothing!

So I planned on waiting a few months before experimenting with alcohol, but sometimes life throws well laid plans out the damn window.

Was with my mom this morning driving her to a consultation for a lifestyle lift. She was so excited, dressed to the nines and I even did her hair and makeup. We arrived and were walking into the building when I heard her cry out. Turned around and she's on the ground not moving.

Long story short, she fell badly and on pavers. And she's on cumidin. So now we are both covered in blood, ambulance to the ER, 40 some stitches later, her right leg and knee is destroyed and she can't walk or move her leg. Immobilized.

Got her home and in bed, went to pick up scripts and stopped for a small bottle of vodka. F it. So a double vodka later, with Water and mio, and I feel nothing. It's like I didn't even drink it.

I might have another and report back.

7 weeks.

I was told to wait at least 6 months. that seems really really soon.

I hope your mother has a speedy recovery!

I still haven't got sleeved. My surgeon said 6 weeks is fine. I love vodka. Let me know how you feel after another cup. You sound like you need it. I hope your mom feels better. That's horrible!!!

I'd had a terrible day a week ago and had two bison grass vodkas, water and a dash of apple juice. Marvelous. I was two weeks out and it was even approved by my bariatric nurse. First one went down quickly. Second one, as quickly, but I felt it! Ergo, I only had two! Enjoy!

Omg I feel horrible for your mom , have a drink for me I'm to scared to
