OH Event Seattle 2009

Amanda T, Joni, Lisa O., Dr. Tina, Sheryl, Nicole, Kristin, Tiff, me, Jean M.

Ok, actually it was held in Bellevue, WA @ the Westin Hotel. It was held Aug 14 & 15th.

I took a buttload of my old now too big clothes to donate at the clothing exchange and was bummed that there were none in my size but I did score a sweater with 3/4 sleeve well not quite 3/4 but half sleeve which I can wear at work since it is cold with the stupid a/c. A/C is just so wrong in Seattle.

Anyway then went out to Snoqualmie, WA to hang out with fellow lap band friends. It was fun! I got to meet Jean M. She's a wonderful gal. Lisa O. is a great hostess. It is fun having friends where you can relate about having lapband.

Saturday Aug 15th.

It was fun. I think I od'ed on protein shakes! I felt so bloated when I left. LOL I love watching this show "Big Medicine" with Dr. Garth Davis. I got to meet him! YAY.

I was sooo MORTIFIED when a friend (who had RNY) bitched complained about how cold it is at the Westin Hotel, (not OH's fault), the lunch food (again not OH's fault) saying why did they serve refried beans because it can cause everyone gas. Hello, it doesn't cause everyone gas. I don't have issues with beans. I told her to take beano if she has issues. She also bitched complained about those flour torillas (spell?). I just wanted to hide under the table. Well, hello, you don't have to eat it, and not everyone there had the surgery. People can handle them fine if they chew well, don't dump on it, etc. Just don't worry about others, worry about yourself!! UGH. She also complained about mozzellra (Spell) cheese not being available, all there were was cheddar cheese. I got really irritated and gave her my string cheese which I had in my purse in case I got hungry. I never got to eat it because I overdosed on protein shakes!

UUUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!
