Is it ok to have a little wine every now and then?

Hi all, I have a question. Is it ok to have a little wine about 30 minutes after you eat at night only? I would love to do that but am afraid fo the calories. I also wonder if it's a good for you to have red wine? Doesn't France and Italy support the notion that red wine is good for the heart? If that's true how much is good? Looking forward to the reply's.

Best Regards,

I support it to. I was told it is 4 oz. of red wine a day. I haven't started to add my wine back in due to the fact I was just banded. I will in due time tho.

I love my wine and i have it at least once a week (2 - 3 glasses).

I drink a bit once in a while. Besides the calories, they advise us not to drink because of stomach irritation and the idea that alcohol MIGHT lead to band erosion. I think quite a few people drink sometimes, tho, without any problems. I'm not a wine drinker but have had beers and drinks at times. I'd probably wait more than 30 mins after eating, tho...right?
