Going to Vegas - What to drink?



Recommended Posts

Hey All,

So I'm going to Vegas in April (7.5months post-op) and my girl friend and I are obviously going to want to go out in the evenings, dancing, etc.

What on earth does one drink when they are going to a bar that isn't alcoholic, doesn't contain butt-loads of sugar and isn't carbonated? I mean the obvious answer is Water but there has to be something else?

Help! :-)

Cranberry rocks with an umbrella. :-)

fruit juices are full of sugar. When out, I drink iced tea, either unsweetened or with a non-caloric sweetener. If you don't want the caffeine, you can ask for herbal tea. You could also carry some of those Water flavorings in your purse (like Crystal Light) and just add that to a glass of ice Water.< /p>

Have fun in Vegas!

One cup of cranberry juice has approx. the same amount of calories as one serving of wine, so sip! :-)

I went to Vegas about one month ago and I had a few cocktails. My drink of choice was vodka and Water to which I added a flavor enhancer. I stay sway from juices, too many calories and too much sugar. I found some sugar free strawberry daiquiri and margarita single serve enhancers at the grocery store the other day. Those are what I would recommend even without the alcohol.

Have fun!!

      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.

        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!
