Sleever's Rendezvous...?



Recommended Posts

If you guys are planning a summer get together weather is going to be the deciding factor. The south is miserable in the summer and so is the east coast in my opinion. Since the consensus is to meet up centrally I think colorado is a good option. The springs has some fun things to do and the garden of the gods is breathtaking plus you could challenge yourself to a hike up pikes peak. There is also an airport so you wouldn't have to drive in from Denver but it isn't that far of a drive anyhow.B)

Maybe more regional get togethers would be best. For example Portland, OR; Lasvegas,NV; Colorado Springs,CO; New Orleans,LA; Nashville, TN; Orlando, FL; and somewhere in New England like New York City or Boston :blink::rolleyes:

Even though I'm a newbie I would LOVE to do this but I wont even be sleeved until June at the earliest so I'm guessing that having a fat chick aweighing you down is going to be counterproductive. :( That being said, I'm in WV and Allegiant Air has some SUPER CHEAP flights to Ft. Lauderdale. Perhaps some of the rest of you could go that route and then rent a car together. It might make for an extra few hours at the airport but it could end up saving ton$ in the long run. Good luck guys and put me on next year's guest list for sure!

Yeah this sounds like so much fun!! Also, and someone may have already mentioned this, but Cruises are fun and really seem reasonably priced if you look for deals. I would also absolutely LOVE to do this and get to meet everyone, but it's taking every penny I got to pay for surgery this yr. Maybe next time? We should totally make it an annual thing!!! :)

I would love to meet everyone, but I can't afford Florida right now. I would love to have one in Texas because it is a little more central. I was thinking San Antonio. There is lots to do and we could just pick a weekend to go. As long as you stayed in a hotel on or close to the Riverwalk we could all meet up. Any thoughts???

I vote for Las Vegas. Lots to do, and awesome hotels.Summer rates aren't too bad, either. Remember, it's a dry heat!

Most places are cool with me.

Floria Keys would me my first vote, Las Vegas is number two, and New Orleans is running third.

This is a wild idea - A CRUISE (just a thought).

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
