This is probably not what you asked, but... Be careful with alcohol, we have a greater chance of becoming physically addicted to alcohol and also increased chance of liver and brain damage after our surgery. Physical addiction (withdrawl symptoms when not drinking) happened to me, and I went to treatment with a handful of other Bariatric patients on the same inpatient unit. It's quite common, that's why they tell us to avoid/not to drink alcohol as a part of our postop teaching. I imagine you could become more sensitive to alcohol with new weight loss. I've been sober for 7 years now, 11 years out from Roux N Y.
