I had surgery on 5/17/13. I had 2 drinks on my birthday, August 2, (cosmos). I got buzzed after 2 sips. You will get buzzed really fast! But what's weird is the buzz goes away really fast. I was a pretty big drinker before surgery. I drank 1-2 a week. In the summer, and the Holiday's maybe even 3 times a week. I enjoy girl time, a glass of wine with dinner, or a beer with the hubby. However after surgery, I've had sort of an aversion to alcohol. I don't know how to explain it. Since August, I've drank maybe once a month, mostly vodka mixed drinks, and had no issues, and have enjoyed them. I think like with anything else, moderation is key! I also stay away from anything bubbly. Sadly no more beer for this girl. Good Luck, and as with everything make sure your doctor clears you to drink!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
