Looking for advice for parties



Recommended Posts

I have a birthday party that I have to go to tonight. Anyway I don’t wanna drink alcohol as I’m only one month out, I can’t drink juice due to sugar, and I’m worried anything with bubbles will hurt.
I don’t want a bunch of questions and why I’m only drinking Water.
What can I drink that looks like a normal drink that I will be able to tolerate. I was hoping for a non-alcohol, non frizzy, non sugar drink. Does a drink like this even exist?
Please help guys I have no one else to turn too?
I’m so anxious about tonight.

Just tell everyone you are the designated driver! No worries because you are being safety minded. I used to carry around a glass of white wine. Didn't drink it, just carried it around.

Is it at a bar? If so you could ask barman to pop some fresh lime and maybe mint in a glass Water. People that push you to drink may assume you're having a vodka lime soda or mojito then.

What about Water with some Crystal Light or Mio flavoring? It'll be a color that could indicate just about anything in terms of a mixed drink . . .?

The above posts have it right. nobody needs to know that the drink in your hand is Water. Mio bottles are real tiny you could carry that around easy or just keep lemon or lime piece in glass. If your with date/spouse go with DD bit otherwise you might have drive some drunk home (lol)

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
