Bariatric Friendly Dessert Foods
Dessert foods are a must-have at any event. As you know, bariatric friendly dessert foods are few and far between. The guilt that comes along with eating dessert is on just about everyone’s mind, especially for bariatric patients or health-conscious individuals. Also, the term “healthy” and “dessert” don’t always go hand in hand. The point of these desserts is to be healthier alternatives. By eliminating more sugar and having low-carb options.
Drinking Alcohol After Bariatric Surgery
This is a loaded question. Ultimately, drinking alcohol for bariatric patients depends primarily on the weight loss procedure. To preface, it is not recommended to drink alcohol after bariatric surgery, but if you do, here are some healthier alternatives.
Here are some tips for people who chose to drink:

- Chose a glass of dry red or white wine and sip on it slowly
- Avoid sweeter wines such as white zinfandel, muscat, german riesling, and port
- Avoid sugary mixed drinks such as margaritas, daiquiris, pina colada, white Russian, long island
- If consuming hard alcohol, mix with a sugar-free beverage such as club soda, crystal light, or add just a splash of cranberry or pineapple juice
- Add fresh lemon or lime to drinks for a fresher taste
- Do not use store-bought drink mixers unless they are labeled sugar-free
Conclusion
Going to the next party or event doesn’t have to be unnerving. Spreading the word about hit dishes that are health-conscious and bariatric friendly is important in battling the current obesity epidemic. Remember, weight loss doesn’t have to be done alone, neither does a bariatric diet. Get your friends involved. Get excited. Stay on top of your health, and see the results grow.
