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!!

      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.
