Interesting summary. I usually lose fat on the trip because of more walking and I use the exercise rooms when available.
I think the high protein buffet also help and i don’t snack.

Casinos need the potential income these days, they are trying to “healthy up” their regular players as to keep them longer . Ask your doctor about using Cinnamon or taking Cinnamon capsules (sold over the counter) TO help combat the pre-diabetes. Good luck and keep using your treadmill. Diet, cadio exercise and weight loss is the best prevention of diabetes. In my best Spock voice – Live long and prosper.

Thanks, Jean. I have long appreciated your attention to the gambler as a whole person.

I always love the options that are in Vegas.
I am happy as a Weight Watcher that MY Choices are available in most buffets in Vegas. I do find that a few of the cafes still have some comfort dishes that we could indulge in but the majority at least have a salad or fish, chicken or lean beef.
As a person with dietary allergies, I do feel that the SUGAR FREE options are sometimes a challenge all by themselves.
I also like the community of Las Vegas has a number of friendly Weight watchers meetings to help keep us accountable… I always lose weight on my trips. We have so much time to walk .. Similar to your advise about a “Piggy Banking” casino run..
The life style events sound great.

It’s not so much that they’ve developed a sense of caring–after all, how many millions of lives have casinos destroyed?–as the simple realization that we’re worth more to them alive than dead. The single largest demographic that has made the casino industry successful is the Baby Boomers, and now that we Boomers have gotten to the cough-and-wheeze stage, they are belatedly trying to make us health-conscious, either because it’s an attractive marketing ploy or they just want to avoid the ultimate tragedy: Grandpa kicking the bucket in mid-handle-pull while owing an outstanding $20,000 marker.
