  1. 1. Are you coming to "NYC" for the National LAP-BAND Conference?



Recommended Posts

I am going! I live 2 hours from NYC. I'll take the train and stay. I'll find the money somewhere because I really NEED to be there!

I'm interested in attending in NYC, but it depends on dates and whether I can work it around my two jobs.

I have to say no just because of the location. It would be a lot easier if it were a little closer. Houston I would consider...or as someone else suggested, Las Vegas. I'll hang around to see where the other conferences might be.

i could not make the conference in Dallas. I would attend a conference depending on the time of year (I travel a great deal for business), location, cost, and program offered. The program offered is the most important.

I would love to go to a conference, but NY is a long way away for me. What about a NW Conference (say Seattle area) in the future???

Definitely NYC - it offers so many more opportunities. Flying into Newark might make the flight better and taking ground transportation to the city.

Thanks for planning this....I would love to attend a conference. I'm two years out and would love to

compare my experience to others...and learn all I

can about how to manage my band to it's greatest

potential. I would prefer NYC...but would still attend if it's in NJ. Like a lot of people, I would probably build

a vacation around the conference. Thanks again for organizing this.

I live in NJ and I am only a 15-20 minute path ride into the city so either place will work for me.

Hi all I think this is great and I would be willing to attend. I know that wheather we are in NY or NJ we can find a good venue and great hotel rates. What about the group rates? I live in Philadelphia which is close to both areas. Send me the information. I know people who would attend!!

I'm totally interested in attending the conferene....It would be great to finally meet some of my amazing lapbandtalk friends in person :D

I'm in California, and would love to see something closer to home, but would not mind flying to the conference....of course, I would probably prefer NYC to New Jersey then, but it's all very doable if I have enough time to get a decent priced ticket :unsure:

Please keep me posted!

I am curious as to where in NJ you are looking to book the conference. North, Central or South? Newark area, East/New Brunswick, Mount Laurel, Atlantic City? Philadelphia is also a great East Coast location with easy airport access for out of towners as well as easy train access. Before booking it would be nice to share a location more narrowed down than the entire state of NJ. NJ is alot bigger than NYC. Are you looking for a hotel with alot of conference rooms for breakout sessions, big ballrooms or an actual convention center. How large of a conference to you anticipate this being. I would be interested in alot more details. :D

I would possibly be interested but it is quite a far travel for me and not sure if I could actually do it financially at that time. Do you ever plan on doing any a little closer to the West Coast? I would love to go to one in Vegas or something like that because then I would have the option of driving the 12 hours or flying. Please keep us informed if you decide to do one closer to California!

Thanks!!!!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
