Going to Vegas - sleeve friendly places to eat?



Recommended Posts

Since Vegas is built on HUGE buffets - anyone know sleeve-friendly places to eat?

I would hate to pay $15 for a buffet, then eat like 3 bites of food. My hotel won't have a frig, so can't store leftovers.

thanks!

Hi, I would ask your doctor to write you a note stating you had surgery and that you can only eat a child's portion and hopefully they will allow you to have their children's rates on the buffets

I showed my surgery card & many places gave me the child rates when I was in Vegas last year. When they saw what I ate, the staff kept asking me how I could exist on such small amounts. It was funny!

I just got back from Vegas and I went to restaurants and shared a meal with my Sister - After she saw how much I was able to eat she did not mind sharing. We went to the Hard Rock - on the strip and shared the Pulled Pork Sandwich - (it is actually chicken) I just took a couple of spoon fulls of the chicken from the sandwich and had a bite if the Beans and slaw and I was full. Another day we went to Popeye's and I got some chicken there. It is just past Fry's beyond the Luxor on the south end of the strip. I also had some Jerky (High Protein and you will not need a fridge) and some Pig skins to much on between meals. You can also take some of the Protein Drink mixes and grab a water bottle while you are walking around. I also grabbed milk at the 7-11 on the strip to get me between meals - There is quite a bit of Protein in Milk. Hope this will help give you some ideas and have fun in Vegas! :D

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
