Wine?
Sooo just how bad is it? I have been tending to have a small glass of white merlot sometimes nightly. If I sip and drink it slow enough I don't get any nasty side effects. Sometimes extra flush in the face but no dumping persay.
But curious if its just a bad bad idea or "ok"?

Well your Doctor would tell you, Bad idea.....Because we can have transfer addictions so easily now.....
I myself drink socially.....I can't drink pop as it makes me sick so I stick to shots or Cosmo's....So basically just alcohol, or water with vodka and crystal light....
I think if you don't abuse it, it's okay once in awhile.....If you feel you NEED it every night, then you may want to back off of it....
Hope that helps, and is only my opinion, others may have different views....Kelly

Well, I wouldn't say its a transfer addiction...at the moment. 
No seriously, I do know ppl where this happened so not to take lightly.
I have noticed it helps me settle down and fall asleep faster but not something I HAVE to have nightly.
Mostly wondering if its a weight gaining factor or not?
I can't get what Bob Harper said last night on Biggest Loser..."Don't drink your calories!" (dang it!)

I guess if it's not addicting to you, then your fine....It is empty calories, Bob is righ****er is better....
Weight gain factor? Could be....I would guess it's more food or grazing issues......It all adds up though.....
Hang in there.....Start logging everything that you put in your mouth, it's amazing.....When I logged my food I realized where my problem was.....

If I drink wine I am D-R-U-N-K after 3 sips (lips numb, slurring words drunk). 
I can tollerate sugar more than some people I know so I don't have dumping but it definitely hits me much harder than any other kinds of alcohol.

Well I don't sing good sober.....We'll have to have a "Girls OH night out."
That sounds like fun!
I used to love wine, but since the surgery, (so far) I have found it to be too sweet. And I like dry wines!
Funny, I was not a beer drinker before surgery, but now I find I like the taste of beer and it doesn't make me drunk
. Of course, I have to share a bottle with someone, I can only manage to drink the amount of beer in the neck of the bottle.
