Other than having to walk MILES to get to the room to the exhibit hall, back to the room etc....it was awesome guys.  I think if I had slippers for rent I cuold have made big bucks.  Most women had blisters and super sore feet.  I hope you guys enjoy the pictures!

Thank you and that's adorable!! How have you been my love?  My head is still spinning from the trip and it was definitely an eye opening experience.  It is amazing how little some of the surgeons know about the life after our surgery and that is not meant to be a derogatory comment.  There are a lot of people in the field that don't know much about us and wow I'd love to change that.  I've got a couple of ideas I'd like to publish and one of them would be a book called "Dear Bariatric Surgeon...things post-ops would love for you to know."  The exhibits and all the things being offered in the bariatric world will make your head spin.  Some of it is surgical instruments and stuff like that but some are after care products too. 

I've missed you guys!  Thanks for the welcome ommmmmmmm.
hugs, Y
