Can diabetics drink alcohol?

Okay, you must be the same diabetic troll in every post about SGs. It's getting so annoying.

Don’t care what anyone posts that annoys you.

I still drink, but not nearly as much as I used to. I think it has something to do with the way the medicine interacts with my pleasure receptors. It tastes fine to me but I’m just not going back for as many refills. I’m happy that my intake has gone down.

I also find myself forgetting about coffee after the first cup. I used to drink coffee all day. Sadly, Wegovy doesn't affect sugar for me. Maybe the only negative thing about Wegovy for me is that I still crave chocolate but since I'm not hungry, I could easily skip dinner and just have a little ice cream at night, which is obviously not healthy even though it does allow weight loss. I've caught myself having a cookie for no reason, then not wanting the next meal because I'm full. So I have to watch sugar super closely and not sabotage my overall health or protein goals.

This tracks for me. I don’t have any desire to drink alcohol and don’t drink nearly as much coffee. Still think about sweets a bit. I used to love wine!

DP and same for me. I drink so much less coffee and alcohol.

I drank a glass of wine with dinner 4-5 nights a week, and would often have two if I went out with a friend. On Wegovy, I have no desire to drink it. I’ll have a glass if I go out, and I enjoy it - but it’s the difference between 5-6 drinks over a week and one. Pretty dramatic (and welcome!).

I loved wine before and I still love it now. My alcohol consumption barely changed bc it doesn’t fill you up. Food, however, is a different story. I’ve lost 25 pounds because eating doesn’t appeal to me anymore.

Yes, I poured myself a glass of wine reflexively yesterday evening. Nursed it for 2 hours and couldn’t finish. No desire.

It changed the taste of white wine for me so I avoid it. I can still drink a sweet cocktail or red wine, but often don't finish the glass.

I’ve been in semiglutides for a year. I still ant as much wine as I ever had. I’ve lost 45lbs. My sugar cravings had gone away but appear to be coming back.
