ObesityHelp National Conference: Friday’s Agenda is Finalized!
July 17, 2013Friday’s ObesityHelp National Conference agenda is Finalized!
Clothing Exchange, swap don’t shop! Stop by the Monterrey Room at the Crowne Plaza and donate the clothes that you’re ready to say good-bye to. Your clothing donation will go to another person making their way through their weight loss surgery journey but don’t leave empty handed, swap your clothes out for ones that fit you at your new size! This is a 100% FREE clothing exchange open to the public.
Interactive Discussions sure to Break-the-Ice, expand your support system and celebrate your decision to lose weight and get healthy! You are going to love these three discussions: Connecting for Support, Outreach and Accountability with Nicole of Beauty and the Bypass, Sharing Your “A-HA!” Moment with Michelle of The World According to Eggface, and Celebrating Non-Scale Victories with Beth of Melting Mama.
Friday Fitness, we’ve been inspired by the success stories of people conquering obesity and finding the determination to become athletes. There will be a session with Richard Kalasky, Overweight to Endurance Athlete and a Hip Hop class with Robanne Robin! Then we’ll bring Richard, Robanne and Dan Benintendi together to form a Fitness Panel, with the theme: From Obese to Athlete, Can I Really Get There?
Post Op Grads Q&A Panel has become a favorite at the ObesityHelp Conferences! On Friday, you’ll get to ask all the questions you’ve been wanting answers to from our panel of experienced post-ops. You know the questions that only a “been there done that” fellow weight loss surgery patient could answer! Panelists: Beth Sheldon Badore, Nicole Bullock, Terry Row, Michelle Vicari, Chris Waffle, Jessica Stockton
