The Lifestyle Intervention Conference last week at the Four Seasons Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada September 28-30, 2011 was AWESOME!

This was the first national conference focused on Obesity, Food, Addiction and Recovery.  The event was hosted by Michael Cartwright from FitRX and Brad Lamm, founder of Change Institute. Brad Lamm is an interventionist and a best selling author of many books including “Just 10 Pounds”.

There was a rainbow of experts speaking on various topics related to Obesity, Addiction, Intervention, Treatment, Insurance, to name a few.

They also had a few celebrity health experts including Joy Bauer from the Today Show, Fitness Guru Billy Blanks from TAEBO,  Tennie McCarty from Shades of Hope and Season 8 WINNER on The Biggest Loser, Danny Cahill.

I’m grateful I got the chance to tell my story and challenge with Obesity and Diabetes. One year ago I weighed 360 pounds and had a diabetic A1c of 10.4. To date I’ve lost 82 pounds and cut my A1c to 4.6.

The dialog and conversation about Obesity, Eating Disorders and Recovery has started.
Next years event will no doubt be bigger,better, and more informative. Good job guys!
