You shouldn't smoke after WLS due to the risk of ulcers. Well, along with all the other reasons you shouldn't smoke at all. I'm sure some people do resume smoking after surgery, but it's a very bad idea. It doesn't make much sense to me, either, that you'd go through major surgery in order to get healthier while doing something so unhealthy as smoking.
