I see posts about weigh loss conferences in the U.S. (YWM in Arizona), but have not seen anything in our neck of the woods.  Does anybody know about conferences in Canada that would be relevant to WLS patients?  I would love to attend and get involved.

Thank you for any suggestions.

I would be very interested in something like this in our area too!

Thanks for posting this Debbie,  maybe if there isn't any in this area  some of us could work on

getting something together?  Depending on how many would have an interest in this sort of thing.

A bunch of us from the Barrie/Orillia area made a weekend of it and went to the Sarnia one in October and had a great time. The event was awesome and got to meet some wonderful people. Definitely recommend the Cambridge one this year!

I have been to an OH one held in New York. Loved being able to go to the Big Apple, but having one closer to home is definitely a plus. Las Vegas in May was sounding good, but I am sure I would be more into the Vegas experience than the WLS event...lol.
