Bandsters Caribbean/dolphin retreat and fun!!!



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone!

I am so excited about this trip! I will try to answer all your questions. We will be at one of the top reefs in the world! This will be my gift to me for losing weight!

When....i was thinking beginning of May of 2007.... Possibly March if everyone prefers a bit early...but some spring brakes are in March and brings cost up.

The cost will depend on how many people go, but roughly for 1 week at an excellent island resort with ALL meals included, double occupancy....

7 night hotel accommodations

Fish and coral under Water ID cards

2 snorkel trips daily by boat with guide in which we can see dolphins

1 dolphin encounter at the resort

Reef ecology lecture and fish ID slide show

Full American meal plan – 3 meals daily

Daily dolphin presentations

Welcome island cocktail and orientation

Tropical picnic on Tabyana Beach

Island Fiesta Night on the Key

Horseback riding

Kayaking and Canoeing

Entrance to Roatan Museum

Airport transfers and airline ticket reconfirmation

And of course time to restore and heal... mini health lectures, discussions, games, and lots of fun!!

All of this for about $1,750-$1,950!

Does not include airfare

Air fare is extra from Houston on Continental, but I can try to get a group discount when I have enough people that sign up. The airfare now is in the $380 area, but don't know what it will be for 2007.

We will need to have a deposit ready for the resort by the end of December or maybe January...they sell out quickly.

It is really one of the best experiences you will ever have!:smilingface

(52): What a great gift to yourself for such hard work losing weight with the help of the band!

Have you looked at the cruise lots are going on in June? It sails from Galveston. You might not get as much participation as you want since there is another event so close to yours.

Yes, I saw that...but there might some people who do not like cruises, but do enjoy the sea and island life. Also i saw that it is quite full and probably not easy to get on the cruise at this point...I was interested but saw there was little space. So far I have receives a couple of possible yes!:)

Thanks!

Just a clarification here on the cruise - there is still space, but only 1-2 rooms at the heavily discounted rate as quoted in the thread. There is plenty of space still available on the ship, though. NOT that I want to take away from this trip; just want to make sure everyone understands!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
