Lighten Up Expo is a special conference for people with weight issues, Bariatric patients, people who are interested in Bariatrics, and how Weight Loss Surgery can enhance the quality of their lives. We invite you to participate in the first-of-its-kind expo for bariatric patients, future bariatric patients, and anyone interested in maintaining a healthy lifestyle through education.

With weight issues on the rise in America, we take this opportunity to remind you that one of our nations' greatest strengths is education. Lighten Up Expo will educate participants, especially parents of children with weight issues, WLS patients and those interested in WLS, about the dangers of being overweight, and will help them find tools that are available for use to help maintain a healthier life.

OUR MISSION: to educate, motivate, raise awareness and provide resources beyond those supplied by the internet, literature or word of mouth. To inspire people to recreate their life by becoming healthy and physically active, to help attendees adopt a healthy eating lifestyle, with a plan to succeed. We strive to enhance, support and create a state-of-the-art educational experience that is both meaningful and exceptional for all individuals interested in WLS (Weight Loss Surgery) and a healthy lifestyle.
