Who's up for a 'Vegas reunion' party in 2010



Recommended Posts

Over 100 July Butterflies!.. (and maybe room for some Junebugs too)

I would like to take the lead in suggesting that if about 50 (and there are over 400+ of us) would be interested in meeting up, say Spring early Summer 2010 we could have a great trip to look forward too and could strut our new selves in Lovely Las Vegas!and meet at last our Forum buddies.. I'd love to see what interest there is out there for plan like this.. so Please lodge your interest.. Las vegas is somewhere most of us could get to for a long weekend and I have planned a couple of largish gatherings there before so have done lots of research ( got married there in 2006 and also had sons 21st).. Plenty of cheap accom and some great suites which perhaps we could have for one night to hold our 'Party 'in??

Thoughts please:thumbup:

I´d be up for this! It would be great to meet people from the forum.

I hope that more people are interested in joining. If not, suggest again in another year when most of us newbies have been here longer and feel like this is our lounge.

:thumbup: 2 or 3 people have already said 'maybe' so keep adding and I'll see where we get - I'll collect the details of anyone who says they might be persuadable!! Yeahh!

I could possibly be persuaded. It all depends on where the Army sends my husband between now and then. I know he is spending 2009 in the "Big Sandbox", and when he returns we will be moving somewhere, don't know where, don't know when.........Keep me updated, and I will find out sometime late next year if I can attend. If all goes well, I will be in Europe!

I'd love to go, it just depends upon timing and if I can get off of work. Other than that count me in.

      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.
