|  ? About Drinking I have a question. We were out in a mexican place Sat. night and a friend offered to buy me a Margarita. I wanted one, but was horrified to drink one because of the sugar in them. Don't they have way too much sugar. And is there anything we can drink besides beer after we've had surgery that won't make us sick from the sugar? Please help!!!

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass   | I was told to STAY away from beer (carbonation).....I have a glass of wine on occasion, but alcohol is EMPTY calories and usually converts right into sugar....if I drink at all, it's VERY sparingly! I have some Parrot Bay Pineapple Rum at home that I will mix with a protein bullet sometimes.....be careful though...there are 4 patients of my surgeon's office RIGHT now with pending DWI charges. If you drink, DO IT AT HOME!!! It goes right into our bloodstream, and you will be at the legal limit before you know what hits ya! |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I tried a margarita while on my cruise. I could only take a sip because it tasted way too sweet to me now. I have had some wine and a bloody mary as well, and those went down well and didn't make me sick. I don't think I dump from sugar either, so it might be different for you.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I have not touched any thing but then again I was never a big drinker. I think I drank too much in college  . But I know some other WLS patients and I have seen them drink wine and etc......and they are fine.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I've had pineapple and orange juice mixed with the rum....go light, as it IS loaded with fructose (natural fruit sugar) and does make some people dump! |
