Your first drink

2 years and counting.  Don't like beer.  Never developed a taste for wine.  Enjoy the hard stuff just fine, but I've lost as many brain cells to alcohol as I can afford! 

hey sleeve sister, i had a drink bout 4 months out and have one or two on weekends

i use vodka adn crystal light for a low cal drink. its true what the above posters say. your buzzing in minutes then wears off pretty quickly (within an hour for me).

was nice, no bad effects. and when i say nice, i mean it was nice to be a bit "normal" and have a drink with friends since eating out sure isnt the same lol

 hope everything is well with you girl

love ya,

Hey sleeve sister,

Things are going great! still haven't had anything to drink. I have like the break from not drinking, it made me see how much I was doing it socially with my friends. But I am dying for just a glass. I don't want to slip into old habits ever again! I have read some posts about some who have worried about gaining back weight!

Everything is going good, How have you been? Doing any clothes shopping lately?

Luv u too!

Andie

been doing pretty good, down 180 overall, approx 130 from surgery. im clothes shopping all the time.  i really didnt think bout the fact this would be an expensive adventure in the clothes area but i guess it is a great payoff lol

i have been checking out the second hand stores too. sometimes i can find great items, just have to dig, then i buy one or two nice outfits for work/outings

how are you doing? i see from your tracker you are doing awesome by the way!!

I had a few sips of my daughters 21st birthday margarita at 7 months out.  I was going to have a drink when I hit Onederland - but then I realized losing this weight is more important to me than a drink - so I still haven't had a real drink - just the couple sips!

8 weeks out. If I drink I factor in the carbs. No big deal. Have low carb drinks like red wine or vodka and SF red bull.

I did get tipsy at Halloween and my friend gave me a sip of her drink. It was horrible b/c apparently it was mixed with orange and pineapple juice. Me + acidity = not good.

Ooo, Girl!! Thank you so much for the tips! I don't want to get sick, just have a glass and see how I handle it!.

I was told untill 1year out but I didnt listen .At 3months I had 4shots of tequila with crystal light and was drunk for about 2hours next thing I know I wasn't drunk no more haha crazy thing. 

Thats so weird!  Hmmm
