    Default Anyone attending the YWM convention in Oct (Dallas)?

    "Your Weight Matters 2012" is sponsored by the Obesity Action Coalition.
    This looks like a great program. I think it could be helpful as well as FUN.

    Here's a link:

    I'm seriously thinking about it too.
    I think it would be fun to meet other people who've been sleeved, and informative to hear doctors and scholars from all over the world present new research about obesity (I'm such a nerd). This could be an annual GTG that someone else plans for us!
