Damn no shrimp or crablegs?

Yea that would be super cool to see!

From watching one too many nature docs, dolphins love to ride the waves created by the bow. It's purely for entertainment just like with orcas.. I just didn't know if a cruise shop created that kind pressure wave. I know know where my boyfriend can find me. Lol

What kind and how often have you seen sealife near the ship at sea? Dolphins? Whales? Sharks? Sea turtles? Where's the best place on the boat to see any? Is the best time at the end of the cruise when they dump the pureed fish food four miles from shore? Mainly inquiring about Charleston SC to Bahamas.. but I would love to hear about everyones experience.

Omg so funny, mine is on August 10th! I didn't lose enough weight to satisfy my surgeon, so he put me on a liquid diet from now until whenever I can eat solid foods post op.. Which I'm kinda mad about.. last year I started doing the two shakes and one meal and lost 30 lbs in a month and then when I was at my dietion appt, she scolded me saying I had to eat more than once a day...otherwise my body would shut down, yet somehow it won't after surgery.. This whole journey has been conradictions. Lol

Nope not booked yet and I'll be with my boyfriend and his family.. He's had bariatric surgery years ago.. Plus I'll be 8-9mths post op.

Idk I see the word Cayman and automatically think crocs 🤣🤣🤣..

I thought I read somewhere a parent was wondering when it was gonna open back up.. pretty sure it was a current post.. 🤔 Oh well it's here incase a newbie is inquiring..

I was just at my last class I had to take and a woman that had already had the surgery was with her husband whose getting his surgery gave me an awesome idea.. Those little cups you normally make jello shots in are the perfect portion size (plus they come with lids) I'm gonna get me a pack and put it in my carry on.. I don't plan on doing any of the fancy dining cause I hate the thought of wasting food (even if it does end up as chum for the fishes) And I certainly aint paying for food I cant eat.. thats a waste of money.. I think I'm gonna stick with the Lido deck.

Also I meant to say that I did see on Amazon that Gatorade has high protein shakes in cardboard bottles.. just like the boxed water on ships.

I'm glad I was alerted to this thread.. I am planning a 2023 cruise as well (my first ever) and I will be 8-9 months post-op. I too am concerned about portion size and not wanting to waste food, so I was planning on sticking to the Lido Deck since it's buffet style. And I already have a gallon water thermos since we need to drink 64oz a day.. my only question is about ice. But I will be on CCL Sunshine so I need to figure that out.. I want to be able to cap off with ice once it's melted.

My bad, I read it wrong.

Awesome thank you!
