Anyone that went to Blossom Bariatrics in Vegas...what did you do for dinner options while there? Where can I get the lean protein and veggies since I’ll be in hotel without a car or kitchen. Appreciate all input.

Are you going to have surgery? If so you'll be on liquids

I will after but before my surgery I have two dinners of lean protein and veggies

Wow okay most ppl are on liquids just before and after surgery

Not everyone. I wasn't. All doctors have different regimes for pre-op.

Yes, Blossom has us on liquids for breakfast and lunch, however, we are allowed to have protein and non-starchy veggies every night for dinner, 2 weeks preop.

We ate at Red Robin one night. I love turkey burgers and Red Robin has the best at a restaurant. They actually allow you to get just a burger and only charge like $3.

We also ate at an Italian restaurant, which was fabulous and I wish I could remember the name of it. I actually just got a side order of 2 meatballs.

What hotel do they have you at? There was a restaurant in the one where I stayed called Annie's Diner or something like that and that had great options. Blossom gave me a list of all the places that were near the hotels they use that have good options.

Burger on the plate or lettuce wrapped. Side salad and your choice of seafood/fish. Ask what their freshest veggies are and request steamed veggies and a grilled chicken breast. I have found that if you ask for something most places other than fast food or restaurants that don’t really cook anything are very helpful.

Zoom zoom-Blossom puts us in the Hampton Inn. No restaurant on site there.

I just saw where you had in your post that you will not have a car. There’s not really much nearby, except for a restaurant in front of the hotel. I’m assuming you are staying at the Hampton Inn. There are lots of places around, but not within walking distance, so you may just have to have dinner delivered. We actually rented a car for the week, mostly because we did not want to be stuck inside the hotel room and I did not want my husband stuck inside the hotel room while I was at all of my appointments.

They house at more than one hotel (or they did before). I actually went twice - first time, I was in a marriot I think and it had a restaurant. Second time, in December, I was at Hampton. You're right, no restaurant there but there is at the other location.

I went to King’s Fish House twice while there back in May. It was so good. I actually had my final before surgery dinner there too! It’s in the Green Valley Ranch shopping complex that is about 10-15 mins Uber ride from the hotel (I’m assuming you’ll be at the Hampton or the Hilton Garden). I would definitely go there if you get a chance!

Miss215...that sounds amazing...thanks

We’re staying at Hyatt Place when my husband and I come in September for my surgery with Blossom.

I am in the Hyatt now. Having surgery on Monday. I felt safe regarding covid with all aspects of this trip (airport, hotel and Blossom). Blossom has a great program. They really care about each patient.

I just got home from vsg at Blossom. Cracker Barrel is next to the Hyatt. You can easily walk there safely. Use the side door by the elevator to get to there. There is a sidewalk. You are not walking on the highway. They have really nice salads.
