Consuming alcohol is not recommended before any surgery as it will thin out your blood and retard the healing process. After surgery, large amounts of alcohol consumed can prolong healing times, and the thinning of your blood may cause dizziness. Ask your doctor about the side effects of alcohol related to your surgery.

what are the restrictions on drinking alcohol and having gastric bypass?
Should you mix gastric bypass and alcohol? Recent studies have shown that gastric bypass surgery can irreversibly affect the way your body metabolizes booze. Your stomach will no longer have the volume to deal with more than a glass or two, so instead of burning it quickly - or at least at the rate you're used to - it will languish there while your blood-alcohol level skyrockets. Your tolerance will be significantly lowered, if not obliterated. In some studies, participants could only have one drink before they were legally intoxicated enough for a DUI! Know your limits if you're drinking after gastric bypass. They may have changed when you weren't looking.
