I am SOOOOO excited you are going to Obesity Week and especially The Downsized Meetup! I am an active member of that community and would love to know you met Christopher and Laraine. If you don't know Condie Carmack... who has the Cancer-Obesity Newletter and is a Molecular Biologist (among other skills and titles), specializing in, obviously, the Cancer & Obesity connection, I encourage you to meet him. He will be around the Downsized people in the Exhibit Room from what I understand.

I would have loved to tag along with you... just following you and soaking in your knowledge and experiences. I will admit I am a tad jealous... but next year! Have an amazing time.

I was so excited at the beginning of this message until the sad end when you said you wont make it this year! ๐Ÿ˜ญ

I am looking forward to meeting the Downsized crew and I will keep my eye out for Condie. Thank you for the kind words and the heads up! But more than anything, thank you for the support! ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿฅฐ

Ahhh, but I am having my 4th cancer surgery of the year Oct. 2, so won't be able to wander the halls of the world for a few weeks. Believe me, I would much rather be hanging around you all than healing, but it is what it is. I will be watching from here to see what you all are doing and hanging on to every word you say. I know you will have a wonderful time. Next year though, for sure!
