Thank you to all of our OH friends in NY for being so gracious and having us and all of our other OH friends visit Long Island! We all had such a great time! This event was fantastic, and at the top of the list was being able to announce that OH has been able to work with Dr. David Buchin and Huntington Hospital to put together a patient grant for one of our own OH members!, Jennifer Birch! Watch for formal details to appear!

I had a lot of fun! It was my first event and certainly not my last. It was great being with people who GET where I've been.
Thanks to all who take the time to organize these wonderful events.

Had a great time Kim! The event was wonderful! It was so good to meet and greet so many OH'ers and hear their tremendous and inspiring stories. Thank God for a forum such as OH to share and care our journies through this thing called 'obesity." All the best to all of you. You have done an awesome job so keep up the good work!

Thank you for bringing all together in one fantastic event ... this is not my first and certainly will not be my last ... I for one am looking forward to the next OH event .. The event was FANTASTIC indeed and what a pleasure meeting so many awesome people... I was so touched by the awarding of that patient grant ... it was the highlight of my OH experience. Thank you so much Kim and OH for being there for people like me. Where is the link to FB?
This was my first OH event, simply b/c the last time they were in my part of the woods (Maryland) I had just had surgery so traveling 4 hours was not in the plans! :-) I had a fantastic time and can't wait to attend more! I am so thankful a group where everyone is sooooo welcoming (and fantastic, of course)!
To Kim, and all your support team, This was not my first OH Conference, not sure why this one moves to the top of the list, but as expected, I was informed, I was motivated, and I was inspired!!!! I got to see old friends and meet new friends! It was organized, well planned and of course went off without a hitch (lol)... Thanks to you and your team! It was very nice to see other SGLs pitching in to help where and when they could... I would not be where I am today without OH and I am grratreful for your existence... I don't agree with everything and let that be known as well... so when something is soooooo right like "Sexy in the City, I need to let you know that! Thanks again! See you soon!

This was my 2nd OH event. But it was the best. I learned so much this weekend. I know it will help me in my journey in losing the rest of the weight I have to. It was great seeing people from the last time. And also knowing there is hope out there in finding someone again to love.
You all did a great job cannot wait until the next one.

This was number four for me and so far the best. Thank you everyone at OH for ALL you do!
