Anyone up for a meet and greet this weekend?

Anyone interested in meeting up for coffee, tea, water, lunch, dinner, etc. this weekend? I think it would be neat to meet (or say hello again) to others who are part of this community.

I have to admit I am not a fan of buffets... BUT, I am willing to go if it means meeting up and saying Hi.

I am going to post in a couple of other places as well, see if I can generate some more interest.

Hi! I am up for it. Are you all by any chance in Henderson? We could do the District on Sunday morning. Lots of outdoor area and a coffee shop where you can get sugar and fat free drinks! :)

Just checking in.....

you guys go ahead. Have fun! Sunday isn't good for me.

I'll catch you later.

Btw, I'm new to Vegas....live over at Nellis. I have a map and can get around a bit, but am still learning. I've heard of Henderson...but have no clue where that is.

Vegas Grace,

Sorry you can't come, we will miss you.

I go to Nellis at least once a month. Just FYI: To get to The District in green Valley, you would take I-15 South to 215 East. Take the Green Valley exit off of the 215. Go about 1/4 and you will see The District on your right! Very easy.

We'll miss ya, Grace. Maybe we can meet at Cannery or somewhere near there someday. I live behind Shadow Creek golf course; my roommate is Army and he wanted a house close to base.

Sunday is the sabbath, so those are always out for me.

But if anyone ever can do a Saturday or any other day during the week...I'm up for it.

Yes, I know where the Cannery is. I guess anything in Vegas around the strip/ I-15 area would be good.

Hope to meet another bandster- haven't in a year...but I know they are out there.

We will be in Las Vegas in July on vacation. I had my lap band done the end of April. I know this may sound silly, but do any of you have suggestions for what kind of drinks I could order when playing the tables since diet soda is out? I am not a fan of wine and would like to get something besides coffee & Water. Also suggestions for reasonable places to eat would be appreciated, especially where it would be OK to share a plate with my husband. We will have a rental car and will be staying out on Boulder Highway. Thanks, Sharon from OKC

Sharon,

I order V8 juice or iced decaf coffee; you can also get iced tea. Or, bring along some individual packets of crytal light and put them in your bottle of Water.

There are so many places to eat - I can't begin to narrow them down. If you have a lapband card, you can ask at any of the buffets to use it as a child's entry. I have found most restaurants very accommodating.

Enjoy your trip and have good luck!

Ugh, plans changed for this weekend I shall remain in Vegas. I need to get out more, dammit!

Anyone up for coffee, a meal, or a walking date (love to walk the air-conditioned malls in the heat; even window shopping for 3-4 miles is burning calories!)?
