@journeywithjoy_vsg: I had a Lemon Drop Martini - and finished it, felt tipsy 🥴 But the longer I sat there, even eating, I felt like I was going to pass out, while sitting down. Everyone started sounding further away. The ladies took me to the restroom, I could barely walk, I was leaning on someone else, got to the bathroom and fell…they brought a chair in and out cold washcloths/papertowels all over me. After about 10 mins I felt normal. Could walk on my own, didn’t feel tipsy, was fine….this hasn’t happened to me before……. Anyone else? #bariatriccommunity #scare #bariatricsurgery #alcohol #bariatriclife

yes, its common. I only drink lighter content alcohols like maybe a glass of Prosecco, and even then ONE small glass. we really shouldn't be drinking after surgery bc of this

It’s the mass amount of sugar so fast, and alcohol combined. I can’t drink because I immediately get sweats and all dizzy

Your body metabolizes alcohol faster after gastric bypass surgery.

It doesn’t take much alcohol to cause inebriation. Our systems absorb it faster. Is that the first time you’ve had alcohol since surgery?
