OH Conference ROLL CALL!
If it KILLS me, I am going to get there. I’ve got a hotel room. I’ve got my registration. I’ve got NO idea HOW I’m going to get there but I will!
For those of you considering going and wondering whether it’s “worth it" I’ll share my experience. For first timers, the sessions are really informative and cover a variety of topics. But for folks who have been to one before, or anyone really, there is a definite benefit in being in the company of so many post-ops. People who GET IT. People who GET YOU. That’s what I love about OH Conference. Getting to meet the people behind the screen names, talk about my post-op life and listen to others experiences.
And I really like the exhibitor hall. I am usually broke when I come to conference but the swag bag they give you is pretty cool. I went to the Cincinnati conference in 2010 and won me a $50 Visa gift card! Plus there were all sorts of vendors there from bariatric vitamin and food companies to shapewear companies to even a company that provides solutions for hair loss (which I appreciated and am not checking into further as I have non-surgery related permanent hair loss).
S’anyway, who’s coming to Atlanta? I’d love to meet as many of you as possible!
