How do You Find Your Party Sweet Spot in Vegas?

[FrenchCanadianGirl]

Apparently it's a good and bad thing...

Hahaha. Same here. I tend to forget about the first, the third, the fifth, the sixth and the last one. Haha!

But what is Excedrin?

I will have to forget about drinking only Margaritas

Beautiful combination of Tylenol, Aspirin and Caffeine. LOVE.

Wow, I've never seen that in Montreal. I think I will have to stop at Walgreens

Lot of great tips so far.

When I am in Vegas if i am not sleeping that means I am drinking. But I pace myself during the day 1 drink 1 water usually is my rule too. Especially during the summertime when you walking under the Vegas heat you better keep yourself hydrated. And i always make sure that I eat small and easy meals throughout the day.

Also sticking with one type of beer and one of type of hard liquor is the key, when you start mixing all kinds of liquor everything gets blurry very quickly. When I start clubbing, i start to escalate my drinking, I start with Votka/Redbulls, top shelf scotch on the rocks or good beer, usually after 1 A.M. or so i start my power drinking (shots, shots shots ). Before I leave the club I usually drink few glasses of ice water to make sure that i am not in wheelchair status so I can keep partying till sun comes up.

Even though its not the healthiest remedy for hangover but best way to fix hangover is ''hair of the dog''. Mimosas or Bloody Marys are great choices to start with. And I usually keep this around too;



P.s: And ladies please drink according to your size; i see so many girls who are extremely petite and tries to keep up with big dudes, and in short of amount of time they turn into a wreck, not sexy.

Diarrhea relief.

(stay with me here)

You get a pack of those powders that are designed to be mixed with water (they are called dioralyte in the UK). They are designed to rehydrate the body and replace all the minerals that are lost through dehydration...which coincidentally is exactly what the body is feeling during a hangover.

Bosh one of those before bedtime and in the morning, and you're back in the game.

Just remember to keep it in the glass...probably not the best idea to have loads of powder spinkled around your hotel room!

Well crap, thats how I shake my hangover lol. j/k........right

[Staggered_UK]

We ran so low on mixers once that I actually had to resort to the vodka + water option...not nice!

But at least it was better than resorting to the next option...aftershave.

Carrying on drinking is always good...keep banking that hangover until the plane home

Haha, that's always a winner, er...but I'm joking too...obviously

These tips are awesome, but doesn't caffeine dehydrate further?

To get the best of both worlds I'll be drinking vodka Gatorades in Vegas next month. Or if that fails I'll give vodka waters a try.

Vodka + rehydration...what could possibly go wrong?!

My biology professor in college told us that Gatorade + alcohol gets you drunk so much faster. Something about Gatorade being specifically designed to be absorbed through the stomach lining instead of have to wait until reaching the small intestine to be absorbed and thus shortening the time it takes the alcohol to get into the bloodstream.

So, I support this 100%.

Awesome

I think I solved the matrix. So i experimented last night. Ate early and took some milk thistle, started pregaming with Stoli and G2. Stuck with Stoli Sodas at bar,chewed on the ice for water slow my pace as I am a very fast drinker,mixed in 3 shots(I think 3 should be my cap. I think 2 shots almost a must) during course of evening. Ate before crashing.

I feel pretty good today. A little woozy but im good. Hydrating ,vitamins. If I was in Vegas Id be good to go in 1-2 hours with pregaming. Mind u I was only out til 4. The real juggling act is handling the drinking and other vices in Vegas especially with the staying power u need.

Well I now know what needs to be done. I used to be off mindset that drinking water during evening would be counter-producive and i would lose my buzz or something. Saturday started drinking arpound 6pm. Went strong til 5am. Did at least 6-7 shots during evening(had to was my bday had them handed to me). Even had different ones. Birthday cakes,jaeger etc. What i did was just pound a water every hour. Took 10 seconds. Next day I woke up and I felt wonderful. Especially when u consider the amount i drank and that I mixed stuff (which on a typical night I never do) the water just saved me the next day. I probably had 12 water during course of evening. Never lost my buzz and was in the zone where I was where i needed to be but wasnt fubar.

after check in i go to the hotel store and buy at least 6 1 liter waters. when I get back to room from the clubs I challenge myself to chug the 1 liter before sleeping. its hard because you feel bloated but its a lifesaver. such a difference if i dont do this.

[boykster]

I go for the holy trinity of drinks - alcohol, caffeine, and hydration. I primarily will drink bacardi and coke (or diet cola after a while to keep the sugar/carbs down) and chew the ice. Of course, later in the night I'll often switch to Vodka/redbull, but I try to keep chewing ice and drinking water when possible.

I always end the night with ibuprofen or excedrine and as much water or gatorade as I can drink.

[GTF]

I'm definitely going to give the pedialyte powder a try.

[daisy24]

what about popping an advil mid-way?? I've done 1 tylenol before pregamming, and before 2 before knocking out (hour past my last drink). Seems to help.

yah yah they say the whole "makes ur liver work 103939x harder" but whatever keeps me going.

I take 4 advil and drink a 32 oz. of water right before bed. Keeps me hangover free.

[not a vet but no rookie]

If I'm feeling crazy on hopped up on red bull I'll drink a lot of water before I sleep for 0-2 hours wake up and drink some more water and mix in beer

If I know I want to get some sleep I cut back on the VRB around 3 or 4 and switch to purely water for a few hours.

My body always knows to shut down after Vegas and I've never felt hungover except for when we leave and I stop drinking
