BariatricPal Meet and Greet Opportunity in San Diego @ WLSFA Event with Carnie Wilson



Recommended Posts

Wish I could go to tell my story and meet you both....I only had 9 months left to live in March this year when I had my op....with my 25kg loss so far with the Omega loop gastric bypass I would be an inspiration to this new procedure. It saved my life....Carnie Wilson was always an inspiration to me and the 80's and 90's were my fondest era for music...then watching her procedure and how open she was about it...I too wish I could get the message out....life changing...Anyway hope you all have fun.....One day when I have the money I will be there! Best regards to all leanne Perth, Western Australia.

So I was reading the small print on the registration page and if you don't stay at the Manchester it is another 100.00 fee for the event making it 200.00 to attend??? What if we have family to stay with as I was going to visit and attend the conference. Just doesn't make sense to charge more if people live in San Diego or have family there. Thanks for clarifying this.

Here is what I am reading:

Early Bird Ticket 6/1/2014 - 12/31/2014 Discounted tickets for event attendees staying in the Manchester Grand Hyatt April 10,11 2015 in the Discounted WLSFA Room Block. Proof of room reservation must be presented at the event registration desk to receive access to the event. If not staying at the Manchester Grand Hyatt an additional $100 fee per ticket will be charged for access to the event.

Yes it would be a lot of fun! I would of course go through BP.com - I will know before the Earlybird specials expire.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
