LBT in Vegas FEB '08



Recommended Posts

Hello Las Vegas Bound Bandsters:

I am really excited about this trip. Juli, I sent you an email and would love to participate or lead wherever the need be. I live in Atlanta, Georgia and was banded on May 24, 2007. I think this trip would be an excellent reward for all of our hard work....it hasn't been exactly the easy but been worth it every step of the way. Juli, let me know what the next step is and I look forward to seeing everyone in February 2008.

Love to All....

I'm waiting to hear from the Travel Agent...

If she doesn't produce something shortly we'll find another! I'm open to suggestions for someone if you know a good TA.

I'm a former TA and still have some connections. Want me to make some calls?

I will probably take you up on your offer. Tomorrow will be a full week since I talked with the TA, she was to email me and send me stuff in the mail and I've gotten nothing.

I'll let you know tomorrow.

I just dropped Band Chick a note. Hopefully we'll get this going.

It shouldn't be that difficult for someone to take our money and create for us a good time.

Herumph.

I just googled 'group travel Las Vegas' and got this link: Las Vegas Group Travel - Las Vegas Group Vacation Package | LasVegas.com LasVegas.com is a great website and I'll just bet they would have some great travel specialists that could help. The first question is: How Many Rooms? .... because that makes a difference in whether or not you can reserve a block and get discount prices. 20 rooms is usually the minimum as far as I know. They do have a number listed for <20 rooms as well. They can arrange meeting rooms, shows, tours, etc.

      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.
