I ask this in all seriousness.

I live in a state where it is illegal but we're planning on to going to Denver for a ski trip and I want to try it.

I don't necessarily have to smoke it, but I was wondering if it would harm my surgery?

We're looking at going in January so I'll be like 3 months post op by then.

No carbs, no calories and doesn't inflame the liver. Be a responsible adult and enjoy sensibly. Vaping the CO2 oils in small quantities is akin to having a couple of drinks, esp. Cannabis indica.

In my research about drinking post sleeve you run the risk of a new addictions. If you are smoking or drinking to cover up unresolved issues with food, you are just fooling yourself and masking the pain instead of dealing with the issue. You are an adult, so take careful emotional stock, get some professional guidance on the spiritual/mental health issues if needed.

People have been using intoxicants since time immemorial, I'm just in favor of responsible health risk mitigation. I stand by the late Mississippi Judge Soggy Sweat's position on intoxicating spirits:

"My friends,

"I had not intended to discuss this controversial subject at this particular time. However, I want you to know that I do not shun controversy. On the contrary, I will take a stand on any issue at any time, regardless of how fraught with controversy it might be. You have asked me how I feel about whiskey. All right, here is how I feel about whiskey.

"If when you say whiskey you mean the devil's brew, the poison scourge, the bloody monster, that defiles innocence, dethrones reason, destroys the home, creates misery and poverty, yea, literally takes the bread from the mouths of little children; if you mean the evil drink that topples the Christian man and woman from the pinnacle of righteous, gracious living into the bottomless pit of degradation, and despair, and shame and helplessness, and hopelessness, then certainly I am against it.

"But;

"If when you say whiskey you mean the oil of conversation, the philosophic wine, the ale that is consumed when good fellows get together, that puts a song in their hearts and laughter on their lips, and the warm glow of contentment in their eyes; if you mean Christmas cheer; if you mean the stimulating drink that puts the spring in the old gentleman's step on a frosty, crispy morning; if you mean the drink which enables a man to magnify his joy, and his happiness, and to forget, if only for a little while, life's great tragedies, and heartaches, and sorrows; if you mean that drink, the sale of which pours into our treasuries untold millions of dollars, which are used to provide tender care for our little crippled children, our blind, our deaf, our dumb, our pitiful aged and infirm; to build highways and hospitals and schools, then certainly I am for it.

"This is my stand. I will not retreat from it. I will not compromise."

Hope this helps
