Hi gals

Here is my thought, I'm sorry i don't fly, I'm willing to drive 10 hrs, I don't mind that at all, and I'm open to suggestion. If I recall someone said no Atlantic City because I think I recall it is dirty, but a nice resort may be fun?

I am very go with the flow, I honestly love the idea of an indoor private pool, hot tub, and it is beautiful in MD in May and just being with my violet sisters, so what ever you guys think is good for me.

I did look at cities from albany, PA and FL seemed to be the big ones and FL might be too far.

I don't know, I'm so wishy washy, but I do love Splash Mt. idea.

Dont forget anyone can fly to albany or anywhere in between if it is easier, i can pick you up in my travels.

love ya all

Hey, here is a thought...

why don't you guys throw some places out there that you can travel to for the 250 deal and maybe that will help. only 4 showed up from albany so that might help?????

Mohegan sun in Mystic Ct?

I just lost my last post!!!

Anyways I just got home from work and I am sorry if what I said was taken the wrong way. I guess I am just sensitive about this because in an investment club I belong to it seems like we are always beating the same dead horse. I am all for getting a good deal. Money is an issue with me and probably everybody else!! My panties were never down, and I am as happy as I can be today. I was only saying that because it seemed to me (although I didn't really say much at the time because I didn't think I would go) that decision was already made. I am not tethered down by anything at the time so I am pretty free to go and do anything. I am sorry again if this was taken in a harsh way!! Just trying to make it simpler and I ended up making it worse!!!

A very :embarassed: and :rolleyes: Jane

Someone had asked for examples of locales of the $250 trips from the travel site...

Charleston, SC; Las Vegas; Phoenix, AZ; Scottsdale, AZ; Myrtle Beach, SC; Tampa, FL; Boston, MA; Dallas, TX; Atlanta, GA; Nashville, TN; Chicago, IL; NY, NY; New Orleans, LA; Orlando, FL; Portland, ME...

and that's just from the first 3 pages... there were about 13 pages from my airport (BWI).

Check it out from your airport!

Can I throw out some ideas? Maybe I'm the only one, but I love casinos.. and all the comps, spas, etc.. ho hum.

Tunica is great, and I can get a lot of rooms comped, full spas comped, blah blah.

hehe.

I am with you girl! I would love to go somewhere that there was some "gaming" action! Do they have a spa & stuff? I am sure that they probably do. DH and I stopped in Tunica when we were on our honeymoon and it was so much fun!

Ladies?

Tunica has tons of outlet malls right next to the casinos and the casinos are in this one little spot with connected roads. It's pretty nice. The spa is right in front of them.

And I could get us the 'pimp suites' that have hot tubs, pool tables, and never ending bar hehe. Did I mention free drinks? :)

I might be wrong, but when I got to the end of looking, it said since I was booking as a single, that I had to pay full price for the hotel room. that boosted it up into the 3-4 hundred dollar range. And more if we wanted to upscale the hotel. Granted, still a good price..

      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.
