21 y/o guy never able to have alcohol again?

  • Popular Post

    Ive been to 2 weddings since surgery. First one was at 3 months then the next at 6 months. I drank a lot at both and very much enjoyed how quickly it metabolized. I only drink on special occasions and at nicer restaurants. 1 bad night of choices doesnt make or break things as long as it doesnt turn into a pattern. Of course most of us ended up needing this surgery because it became patterns but hopefully with the weight loss and retraining we make better choices.
