Topic: Hi everyone!
Wow its been a while! I see some familiar faces HI! Im here because I have had a rough year. I had my surgery 5 years ago. I was able to maintain for 4 years. My mom passes away suddenly last January and this past year i just spirled out of control. I have gained back 25 pounds and I am freaking out. I am still active and I am lucky that i havent gained more then that back. I just joined WW to try to get myself back in control and i am back here because this board was a MAJOR support for me when I had my surgery. So I am going to make it a priority to post and stay around.

Can't wait. Definitely NY. I already have three other trips planned for this year so I'm not sure about the others.

Hi Carmella,
The conference will be for 2 nights, Friday and Saturday. Usually people stay for both, but if you are local, you can drive back and forth. The agenda hasn't been released yet so I don't know if anything is scheduled on Sunday morning, but from my experience at these conferences, usually nothing is scheduled on Sunday. I'll keep this forum posted as soon as I receive the info.

Hi Maryellen,
Do you know if the event on Long Island is a one or two day event. I called the Sheraton and they said they didn't know they just have the days reserved. In other words do we have to make overnight reservations.
Thanks so much,
Carmella

I have had the sincere pleasure of conducting a motivational speech at one of Marie and Dr. Jay's group meetings for the Westchester Post Ops..........................
it is a GREAT group of people and I highly recommend anyone available to attend their meeting.
