    I was told NO alcohol...like EVER! one sip and you will be on your butt because your body cannot tolerate it, beside the wasted calories... if you haven't started, I say DON'T... your doctor may be different, but there are no benefits from alcohol... you may want to wait until after your birthday to have it done if you are intent on partying like that...
