Can I have wine after a while? I know soda is excluded, so once in a while can I drink a glass of wine?

That depends. When was your surgery? I was allowed alcohol in moderation about 4 months out. I usedto have 1-2 beers a month but the carbonation makes it less pleasant now so 1-2 x a month i have a glass of wine with absolutely no problems.

My doc says says no alcohol ever. But different docs have different rules.

Hi,

Let me encourage you, try not to think so far ahead in the future of what you can and cannot have. This surgery will change you in ways only you will be able to tell. Most importantly, the sleeve is a tool to help make your dream of living happy and healthy a REALITY! :rolleyes: I am willing to give up my popcorn and diet sprite....I'm firm on this now, perhaps in another 80 pounds I maybe tempted, but I really want to take care of this blessed tool that gives me another chance...

Yes you can have wine but in moderation. My surgeon said after two months. But keep in mind, alcohol will affect you differently. So when you drink wine for the first time, make sure you have a driver or drink at home to see how it affects you. A little can make you tipsy.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
