I got home at around 11pm last night. Ugh cold ass Midwest, compared to the 90 degree weather of Vegas the last 5 days. Vacation was very necessary, very fun and well.... it was complete debauchery. Total debauchery. Living excessively in the fast lane of Sin City for 5 days was... AMAZING. I would do it all over again in a heart beat, maybe even bigger and better than what was already done. Insane fun. I'm a little tired, so more details and pics to come later.
Weigh In: Bwahaha!

3.5 pound gain. Hmmmm. Not cool, but eh. Could be worse. I'm not beating myself up, but I'm not proud of it either. It happened. Life, amazing nights and a million kickass memories were gained in addition to that 3.5 pounds so guess what - onward. That's it.
Lots of booze. I mean, lots of booze. I was there when Margaritaville Casino made the 'world's largest margarita'; Guiness Book of World Records was there. Epic.
Food: I ate, but only one or two times a day, because sleep was necessary at some point. Eating was a mixed bag. Some salads, some baked chicken, some pizza, some chicken chili, some pumpkin pecan cheesecake (Heaven.), some fajitas (skipped tortillas and rice). No buffets.
Walking - shit, dude. You walk a million miles while in Las Vegas. It was awesome.
*Pretty sure I'm planning a trip to Vegas for my 30th birthday. The dates look to be April 19-23.
Glad you had a great trip!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a blast and it was well deserved. Welcome back!
ReplyDeleteMy birthday is the 23rd of April, can I come too?
ReplyDeleteI am glad you had a great time. Can't wait to see your pictures. While driving truck Jim and I spent a week in Vegas and had a blast too. Back then I didn't worry about what I ate ... hindsite, probably should of.
Have a great week. Take care and God Bless!!
I so want to go to Vegas!!! Glad to hear you have such a good time!
ReplyDeleteIt's unfortunate about the gain but like you said, you had an unbelivable time, got a lot of fantastic memories and you are already planning your holiday back there! Wow! I'm so jealous of your visit to Vegas. I cannot wait to see the pictures.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a good time!! Don't worry about the gain, sometimes life is more important than watching what goes in your mouth every second- you'll get back to it in no time. I actually go to Vegas next week! Time for some clubbinggg! w00t
ReplyDeleteeverything you talked about is exactly why vegas is my most favorite place on the planet!
ReplyDeleteglad you experienced it the way it was meant to be experienced & had so much fun that you are already planning a return trip... that is how you know you did vegas proud!
3.5 lb. gain in five days in vegas is nada!

Las Vegas for a birthday, good idea. I think I'll suggest that to my husband for our 40th next year. (We share the same birthday.)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to those pictures of LV debauchery!
Glad you had a great trip! Now it's time to get back on the weight loss track! Do eeet!
ReplyDeleteJust in your blog here for the first time!
ReplyDeleteMan... Vegas... I'd lovelovelove to go there one day. One sweet day! :D
Welcome back, sweets! You'll get the excess off in a week or two. You lose well when you're mind's on it. :D
ReplyDeleteVegas was never part of my "I wanna go there" list, but hubby knows that when I hit goal and hold onto it for 2 years or more, I get a trip to Tuscany. I'm giving him time to save for that. :D My big "lost it, held it off" reward. :D
I've wanted to see Florence since I was 9. I am almost 52. About time, I figure.
So glad you had an amazing time!! Can't wait to see pics!
ReplyDeleteI've never been to Vegas but I keep hearing pretty spectacular things about it. Did you catch the Beatles show, by any chance? Is it still playing?
ReplyDeleteEveryone thinks you eat buffets in Vegas, but seriously it's about the alcohol. I loved Vegas! My little souvenir from our vacation there turned 2 in May. =)
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good time-welcome back!
ReplyDeleteMISSED YOU! Glad you had a great trip!
ReplyDeleteNow, seriously, is there REALLY such a thing as TOO MUCH FUN? LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had a BLAST! I'm glad you're back safe and sound! I'm glad you have such a positive attitude- that will help you take that 3.5 right back off!
You're so awesome!
