I just registered - I am coming alone. I won't be banded until January, so I'm really hoping to learn a lot!

Will the clothing be exchange only or will it be like a garage sale where they might be purchased? I don't think I am driving so no extra baggage.

Any news on how the clothing exchange will work - I will try to bring some on hangers - but I would love to know what to expect - might determine how many clothes I bring. Will it be like a garage sale - you can buy the items cheap, will it be - you bring and donate all yours and then take what items you want. Is there a limit?

Here's the hotel info from an earlier post -

Wyndham DFW Airport North

4441 W. John Carpenter Freeway

Irving, Texas 75063

Can't wait! Wish I were already banded so I'd have something to contribute to the clothing exchange. :thumbdown:

I am definately going too. Wonder if we are supposed to get a confirmation on our sign up for the conference? Guess I could email Coachcher. I am looking forward to this as well.

The Clothing exchange will be available for everyone who wants to participate. No purchasing of the clothes will take place.

Whatever we have left over I will donate to a local women's shelter here in the DFW area.

Everyone who has signed up is on the list. All you need to do is go the registeration table to pick up your name tags.

I am so excited and looking forward to meeting everyone.

You don't have to be banded to contribute to the clothing exchange. Bring what you don't think you will be wearing much longer and pick up some smaller sizes so you will be prepared once you start losing weight.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
