| EVENT INFORMATION |

OH had such a great time in Bellevue for the last event, that we’ve decided to come back!!!
Our general theme for this event is learning how to become FABULOUS! Whether you are looking into weight loss surgery or have already had weight loss surgery, this event will have something for you! We are busy lining up great speakers to provide information on bariatric surgery, plastic surgery, nutrition, self esteem, relationships, dressing for success, exercise and becoming the best you can be wherever you are in your journey. In addition to the many breakout sessions, our main stage will be offering motivational speakers as well as a professional Q & A panel.
We have negotiated guest room single/double rates of $129 plus taxes at this hotel. It has a spectacular location and affords ample opportunities for walking with your friends to the many shops and restaurants within just a few blocks. Please check with the hotel for parking prices. We’re going to have some fun, and we would like to thank Bellevue for having us return!
