Hello everyone and what a great site this is.

Had my sleeve done last Monday over here in England.

Feel really good and not in any real pain so consider myself quite lucky.

The question I have is for the veteran sleeved, when did they first have a drink of alcohol and what was it.

Liked the socialising aspect of drinking before my op and just wondered if it's possible to still drink in moderation after the operation.

Thanks.

Sadly I messed up my weight on the profile set up..the weight on the left is supposed to be in KGs and I cant seem to correct it.

Welcome, and congrats getting to the looser bench. What does your plan say wbout consuming alcohol after surgery? I ask because over here, in the US, there are as many pre and post op plans as there are doctors preforming the surgery. My surgeon wants no alcohol for the first six months, if you feel you have to have it. After that I was told to proceed with extreme caution, because I am a few times a year wine drinker. She stared I would feel the effects very quickly. Best.

Thanks for the reply.

It never got mentioned on my post op plan and I forgot to ask.

I will ask on my follow up appointment.
