Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass  |  Getting Ready to Visit NYC Yall better watch out! This little country girl is coming to the big city Thursday! I am chaperoning our high school's choir trip and I am so excited!!! I have never been to NYC in my life! We are planning to be there by 5 on Thursday and stay until 1:00 on Sunday. I cannot believe I am doing this. I would not have this time last year, but losing 100+ pounds sure makes things easier. I need advice about the weather. I know it is only going to be in the lower 50's, but what does that mean for NYC? What should I bring? Once we dress in the morning, we will not be able to change. Also, my daughter has asked for a porcelian doll (NYC) - does that exist? Would love any advice any of you are willing to give. I wish I had my itinerary - but I left it at work. I know we are going to Chinatown, Broadway, Midevil Times, Rockefeller Center, and some more places I will post about tomorrow. I cannot even remember the name of the hotel we are staying in but I know it is in New Jersey. Anyway, I am thankful I have lost weight and feel like making this trip with 20+ teenagers.

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery. Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | I live in Jersey! If you are going to Midevil times, that's in Jersey, down by Secaucus (think opening scene of Soprano's) and what use to be called 'Giants stadum', don't know what it's named after now, which makes me think that's where your hotel will be...it's the Jersey side of the Lincoln tunnel...(tunnel that goes under Hudson River and connects NY to NJ.) Not very pretty cause it's all highways and so close to the city (too bad you are not coming up by my end of Jersey...I'm about 45 minutes west of there, in the 'country', that's the prettier side of the 'garden state') but I used to live down that way. Chinatown, pretty cool, don't be fooled by the purses on the street corners, no way in hell did you luck out and come across a genuine 'coach' for $20! And I'm pretty sure that's not a real rollex! Broadway is cool, so much excitement! See if you can scoot over to St Patricks Cathedral. Are you going to Little Italy - hope so, best food in the world! Little Italy is sooo close to China town. Ferrera's pastries in Little Italy.... Post more tomorrow and I'll see what I can tell you - Kenya and LittleLisa and Femme if she's around, should know more about NY city. I do not want to scare you, I am familiar with Virginia, my brother is in college at George Mason - you will not be in Kansas any more, toto! I'm going to pm you some pointers.

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | You know what else...it's hard to say how to dress for weather, but the tall buildings do block the sun a little and make the city windy, so wind breakers, scarves, gloves, just in case. I know I'm always cold in the city because of just that. DocSanae, thanks, I don't know alot about one thing, but I do know a little about a lot of things

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Genmel you will have a ball in NYC!!! Our son lives in Manhatten and I love going there By the way, I do like the $20.00 knock off coach purses, I think most people know they are knock-offs. I won't pay $300. for a Dooney and Burke, but I pd. $20 for the knock-off and $20 for a Burberry knock-off. Dress warm, it does get windy there with the buildings. And definitely go to Little Italy. Have fun!!

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Hi, I live in Northern Jersey, very close to Route 3 (Secaucus)where you might be staying. It's cold here in jersey so it's even colder in NY. I agree think a warm coat, gloves and hat it's very windy in NY. When in NY you will see many street vendors if you see something you like don't be afraid to talk them down on prices...haggle, haggle, haggle. You will enjoy Medieval Times. I went there a couple years back and enjoyed it. Here is the site link just in case. Medieval Times Home Page Since you will be staying in Jersey here are some helpful links. Outlet stores in Secaucus here is the link: Hartz Retail Shopping Centers and Hartz Retail - Secaucus Outlets and try this also Outlet Malls in New Jersey - Designer Outlet Gallery - Secaucus New Jersey If you need any other info just let me know. Have a grand o' time!!!!!!! |
