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



Recommended Posts

I guess I'm not exactly sure what is I should be attending. What is this? Airfare, Hotel, registration and food add up to quite the bill for something I'm not sure what it is. I've seen the website, videos and newsletters. Anyone else a little confused? Someone care to expand/enlighten me?

It's just what it says it's a Meet & Greet for wls patients , if you click on the link or search Wlsfa you will find out all the information , The Hotel rate depends on how many days you are staying & I'm not sure where you live so I wouldn't know about Airfare , also the promo code is Bariatric pal if you are planning to reserve a room it is April 10th_ 12th there will be Speakers, Surgeons & PS Surgeons & from what I understand Carnie Wilson & a Lady from the show My 600lb life will BE there & maybe some people that contribute to the wls sites , also there will be activities , booths that will hand out samples of stuff to help with weight loss , , however you must register ahead of time if you want to be guaranteed a room , & there is valet parking I think that's like $50 a day or you can park your own car & it's $25 a day , if you stay somewhere else they WILL charge you but you have to have your Registration # OR they will not let you in the event , hope this has cleared up your inquiry or you can pm Alex Brecher , he was going to be there , but his plans have changed & unfortunately will not be able to make it.

Oh by the way you have to buy your own food it is not included.

Sadly, I will not be able to personally attend the WLSFA event this year :(. I have a scheduling conflict and can't switch things. Hope I'm able to attend next year.

I'm really disappointed that I won't be able to attend the WLSFA event this year. I hope our BP members will make some NOISE!! :D :D :D I'm a single dad and due to a last minute change I have my kiddos for the weekend. Couldn't bring them along to the event. Hopefully, I'll see everyone at next years event.

I called to confirm my reservations for the room & they had no knowledge of me booking a room They had someone with the same name as mine coming from Amsterdam in May not for this weekend April 10_12th , so I was lucky enough to book a room for the event at like $60.00 a night but I thought I had included everything when I paid for THE EVENT & Hotel , so I'm glad I called to verify everything it would have been awful to get up there & not have a place to stay , I even told them the confirmation & reservation # and still nothing so I least now everything is good so I will still be able to make it.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
