Alcohol After Bariatric Surgery 2

The goal of this observational study is to learn how the body processes ingested alcohol and how alcohol affects mood and blood sugar in both men and women after undergoing sleeve gastrectomy. The main question\[s\]it aims to answer are: * Are there differences in the way that ingested alcohol is handled in men versus women after sleeve gastrectomy? * What is the consequence of drinking alcohol on an empty stomach versus after a meal on blood sugar control after undergoing sleeve gastrectomy? Participants will participate in two types of alcohol tests (alcohol given orally or administered intravenously) after not eating anything overnight or after having a meal. Researchers will compare men and women who underwent sleeve gastrectomy with men and women who had no surgery, are of similar age and body composition, and have similar alcohol intake patterns.
