tonights guest speaker at our support group!

We had a guest speaker at our meeting (the Butterfly Group)in Cincinnati, Dr. Lisa West-Smith conducted an awesome meeting about how to handle stress, dealing with it without turning to food. Dr. Lisa is a psycho therapist-who deals with eating disorders.. Her office is in N. Ky-and if you are a patient at the Tristate Surgical Weight Loss Center you will see her in a preop class before surgery. Dr Tom Sonnanstine director of the center allowed me to sit in some of the classes, I loved it and have used some of her exercises on self control. Come to the conference and hear her speak along with Dr. Tom - Dr. Trace Curry of Deaconess Hospital who will be MCing the surgeon panel-Dr. Keith Gersin of U.C., Dr. Shin of W.
