I cannot say enough about how much I enjoyed attending the OH event in Chicago.

I had the opportunity to speak one on one with Dr. Garth Davis from Big Medicine.  His presentation was overwhelming. 

I had the opportunity to meet other group leaders, members, speak with vendors and listen to other speakers regarding surgery and plastics.

Chef Dave Fouts who is also a Bariatric patient, was very informative regarding foods, how to prepare them...not to mention his fabulous cookbook.  I just had to purchase one, which he personally signed.

I had to immediately try one of his recipes and must admit, the best tasting Pork Stir Fry I have ever eaten!  So get your pen or print out his recipe.  ENJOY!
