Hi all!! I will be relocating to the northern VA area really soon and I am looking for a good primary care provider that has knowledge of WLS. I already have a surgeon up there just looking for a medical doctor. Any suggestions?

May 4th 2007 "Friday Evening's Meet & Greet" is all set and will only cost $5.00 per person. It is up on the 9th floor outdorr "Moon Terrace" od the Double Tree Castle Hotel, at 8629 Internation Drive (but the main entrance to the hotel is on the Universal Blvd. side), in Orlando, Florida. Time: 6:30 PM to 9:30 PM - At 9:00 PM in the distant to the North will be the Fireworks from Universal Parks. (If it Rains we will be downstairs in the Jester's Room by the hotels pool). Included: Hot/Warm Beef & Chicken Fajita's with the fixings plus cubed cheeses. Also plenty of Iced Water with Flavoring "To Go" packets from a few companies. And assorted Samples. If you want Mixed Liquor drinks - you may purchase them at the hotel's Lounge and brought up to the gathering of Friends and Friends to be that we've been following on the ObesityHelp Forums. So bring your WLS Journey's Photo's and any Favorite Post-op Recipes you wish to share! We're expecting between 40-70 attendees with Conference Speakers & Vendors. But remember even though this is to be an Outdoor Gathering, there is "NO SMOKING" allowed.

As a volunteer clown, participating in functions to help children, I often ride one of those silly little bikes where my knees are above the handle bars. As a chubby clown I had problems riding them. As a slim downed clown the small bikes are much easier although I prefer my carbon frame, Kestrel Road Bike now. Now that I am almost to my goal I plan to spend the next ten years riding my bike in events across the USA. The plan is to ride in five events each year which will give me whole USA after ten years. There are many bike rides sponsored annually by worthy charitable organizations. Riding my bike will allow me to help others while helping myself maintain my newfound slimness. I wanted to commit to this on the state forums as a reminder to myself that the surgery is only the first step; a life-style change is imperative if I want to maintain. I intend to do that on my bike. Kim
