    It's impossible for us to tell -- we don't know how much you'll be eating, drinking, and moving while you're in Las Vegas. But it's just four days -- even if you go completely off the rails, most of what you gain will probably be temporary water weight.

    Depends. Are you eating at the buffet for every meal - drinking non-stop and barely moving from your chair? Or are you eating reasonable meals with an occasional splurge, having a few lower-cal drinks and doing a ton of walking?

    As long as you get back to your normal routine when you get back, you will be fine. Try not to binge but enjoy yourself. Last year i went away for a week and for most of my meals i just ordered what I wanted and drank what I wanted. As soon as I got home I went back into my routine and within 3-4 days I was the same weight as i was before i left. Vegas has some of the best restaurants in the country, you should enjoy yourself.

    I'd gain a pound a day. Three meals, drinks, and snacks would probably add an extra 3,500 calories a day, I'm sure. So four days would take me two or three weeks to undo. I'm not saying it isn't worth it.

    Exactly 1/2 as much as to your billfold?

    I've been to Vegas many times and never gained weight there - lots of walking involved if you do it right.

    None. What happens there, stays there.

    Lol well so far I went over my calories by 35 the first day and 60 so far today and I'm only drinking water I've worked so hard to lose that 50 pounds don't want even 1 of those back

    Only water? How is this even possible.... I would be bathing in IPA.

    But good for you! Going over so little won't have any impact for 4 days.
