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!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
