    I have to be honest, I put a lot of effort into this and it kinda sucks that there's maybe 5 or 6 of us.

    Unfortunately even just the plane tix would be too much for us. Hoping for a honeymoon (never had one) next year....but we'll see.
    Best NSV - fitting on a kid's amusement park ride with my 4 yr old grandson!
    CFIDS =Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) Also dx with post-bariatric reactive hypoglycemia; and chronic gastritis (both sleeve complications). Permanently disabled.
    Start weight 335, down to 218, up during gastritis. Have accepted there is no way to lose it with my hypoglycemia. Current weight 260. Currently doing 10 day sleeve reset and determined to get back down to my post surgical weight or close to it.

    Oh I would love to go as I have never been to Vegas and would very much like to go and hear the consult about the comestic surgery. I am going to have that done next year so I am saving up for it now. Unfortunatly I will all spent out since I am taking a vacation this month so I will be unable to attend due to lack of funds.

    Hi Michelle,
    Oh how I would love to come to Vegas, may all time favorite place to visit. Unfortunately, I am having surgery next week. I'll be having gastric bypass. I have severe acid reflux and the Dr's at Mayo Clinic have told me that I can't have the gastric sleeve done because it could make the acid reflux worse. So, they are waiving the preliminary workup so that I can get this done and feeling better. I've been through the workup before for the lapband and in 2000 for the gastric bypass, which I ended up not having because of other health issues. It sounds like a wonderful time with lots of good information and support.
    I hope everyone has a good time -
