October Vegas Bash Info for newbies



Recommended Posts

To all prospective newcomers to the Vegas BASH: Below is a tentative Itinerary for the October events.

8th = Friday night we have a dinner meet at some area restaurant or in one of the restaurants in the hotels. Buca DiBeppo was a suggestion by Lisa. Head over to the BINGO and disrupt the proceedings. LOL!!!

9th = Saturday we plan on heading to Lisa's house for the day. Barbeque later that afternoon. Gabbing till we drop. Prize to the most original scar design. Prize to the either Penni or Lisa for who lost the most weight. LOL!!

10th = Sunday (depending on when people have to leave) do a brunch somewhere and say our goodbyes.

Most of us are staying at the Howard Johnson's (HOJO) located at 5100 Paradise Road, in Vegas. You can get a better deal by going to the website directly www.howardjohnsons.com

The dates are October 8, 9, and 10. Check in on the 8th; check out on the 10th. The rate I received was $49.00 a night going through the website. Anywhere else it is higher. It is not required that you stay at the HOJO. That is just where the predominate bunch of us are staying.

Also, when you decide where you are staying and make your reservations then please send me an email to Penni60@aol.com with your contact info. I am trying to coordinate all arrivals so everyone knows where to meet that evening. I need your email, phone number, cell number, etc. In a return email I will give you my cell number so you can call me when you arrive in Vegas.

Any questions?

      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.
