This is the best! I am loving seeing you guys in Vegas.

Tonight I went to a bridal shower and dressed up in belly dancing gear, learned to jingle my hips (ouch!) and made a bridal gown out of toilet paper. I had a blast.

But I have to say, I almost wore myself out before that party by getting so excited over the Vegas Bash and the Pity Party here on LBT. It is so wonderful to have a group of people who understand how this band can totally change a life. I never would have put on belly dancing clothes if I hadn't gotten banded. Only my banded family understands the impact it has on life.

Queen DeLarla's tiara is lovely. All of you look wonderfully normal and beautiful. What an inspiration to see you all.

Becky,

As a fellow lapbander I do understand what the band does but I am worried,

Will I also want to dress up as a "Belly Dancer"???? Kind of hoping that urge pass buy maybe while I am sleeping some time.

Of course if it hapens my friends will only say "Seen him do worse" lol

The band has been a God Send to me and I wish everyone here a continued good healthy life.

Oh my gosh, I just read today's horoscope, you gotta read this:

"You're about to take center stage with regard to your friends -- mostly because they want you there. Hey -- it's your natural place now. Smile pretty, and be tolerant of the media. "

So, maybe Oprah WILL show up (totally cracking up here!.) YES, those were the empties, and for the record, while I haven't officially had one of Carol's frozen marguritas, I did try one, and this woman know's what she's doing!

Last night was fun - there were some glitches at Howard Johnson's, so a few girls went to the Excaliber and others to The Westin, so we've got bandsters everywhere! Everyone showed up safe, and we had a great time at dinner. But we were all so exhausted, that some of us walked across the street to Terrible's Casino and played for about an hour. No major jackpots - yet!

I'm up early, special for you guys so you can join our fun. Here's some pictures of the table at Buca di Bepo last night. I'll post names as the pics continue. And there will be tons & tons more pictures cause I saw at least 4 other cameras last night.

Here's our table - on the Left: Carol, Leatha, John & Penni, my Chris & Donali's John way way in the back.

On the right: Vera, Michelle, Ginny, Karen, Lisa & Donali.

Beautiful Vegas Vika (Vegas Bandster)

Pretty Penni & her John (Hmmm, where's LuLu's pimp?)

[DeLarla 22]

Donali and her John - same obnoxious remark, both very nice John's though!

[DeLarla 22]

Carol & Leatha (makes my heart smile posting these darling people)

[DeLarla 22]

Is Karen:

1. Getting the waiter's attention;

2. Doing the Macarena;

3. Bonking Lisa.

[DeLarla 22]

Karen has lost, oh, like NINETY pounds! Ginny's on the back on the left, and Carol & Leatha on the right (is Leatha trying to give me the finger?)

[DeLarla 22]

Michelle, Vera & Lisa - Bonded Bandsters : )

[DeLarla 22]

Mr. & Mrs. Theresa (I just had to kiss his cute cheek, sorry T.) Gosh, she's just a lil' darlin' too!

And that's Ginny K in the background. I was hanging all over Texas Babs last night (we got a thing going on) but someone else must have those pics... I'll get some good ones today. Yesterday I was exhausted, but I got a good night sleep and I'm ready to party!

Gotta run to the store for last minute stuff. Vera should be here in a couple hours to make her Enchiladas. My girls pulled through and brought more fresh hommade tamales than I can count. We'll keep you updated!

WE ALL MISS YOU GUYS & WISH YOU WERE HERE.
