Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Anyone up for a meet and greet this weekend?



Recommended Posts

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!)?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
