I guess I forgot to blog about my first wls seminar that dh & I attended last Wednesday! I know I wrote a post about it but in the interest of keeping my thoughts all here in the blog- I'll add what I can remember here too.

It was a seminar for the Davis Clinic in Houston (the guys on the show 'Big Medicine.) It was downtown and from 6:30-8pm. We arrived to a gorgeous hospital & went upstairs to a conference area that is being remodeled. It was dark and creepy. There were just enough seats (about 40 people there.)

I got a packet that had a pretty generic info sheet to fill out. It also contained a flyer for financing your sugery, two more flyers with lapband ads, and then a stapled portion detailing step by step what was to happen if you choose to have surgery with them.

Dr. Robert Davis, the older gentleman (the dad), was the only Davis there. I had hoped to meet him but after his speech & q&a, he left. It was an hr long presentation with powerpoint on the different kinds of surgery. It was good- informative-interesting. I'm glad I attended.

I was disappointed that he's not a fan of lapband. Lapband is all that my drs have said I can get. GB is not ok due to my health issues.

Anyway- tomorrow is my second wls seminar. Its for the Surgery Group of the Woodlands with Dr Balette. My mom is going with me & we have to be there at 8:30am. This means I gotta leave my place by about 7 to make sure I'm there in time (due to traffic.)

I'm excited though!!!!

Oh & the reason I've warped my face outta my pics is because I was unknowingly pictured in tons of flyers & ads locally for winning that local biggest loser comp. I have sinced dealt with people who run into me & ask if I'm that same lady (since its quite obvious I gained it all back.) It taught me to keep my weight battles private for a while until I figure it all out, therefore, no face for now .

I'll post my review on wls seminar #2 tomorrow.
