You're crazy to even think it this early out. Give it time and ask your Doctor when you can do that shot.

You just had major surgery to overcome weight problems.

Now you are only two weeks past this and considering sabotaging it.

Don't be stupid.

A shot is probably not a great idea. Alcohol will affect us more quickly and more decisively than ever before.

I'm 5 weeks post op. I probably still won't drink for a while. But if I had to have hard liquor I'd try something I could sip. Something to savor over a little while.

Wrong thoughts to be having. 6 months minimum, though to be honest, if you're already considering it now, I'd just wait 12 months. No need to tempt old demons until after you've made your way to goal weight. Just my honest 2 cents.
