  • I attended online last year. Halfway through the weekend I knew I had to be there in person this year. I was fortunate enough to go to the event in KY and whenever I attend an event, I always leave at the end in a positive mindset and a renewed energy to continue my journey. For this year’s BME, I’m looking forward to turn online friends to IRL friends. 😊Looking forward to chatting and meeting my coaches in person and seeing the ambassadors. I’m also looking forward to the wealth of information we get the whole weekend. Probably most important, feeling like I’m in a safe and inclusive environment with other like minded individuals. - Jessica Gutshall

  • Simply, Beautiful. Everyone is looking so Beautiful. Thank you Pop Team for the opportunity to access this remarkable event online. It was filled with invaluable insights. The weekend was truly inspiring, elevating, and emotionally stirring. Can’t wait for next year ❤️❤️ - Carolynn Hittle

  • Thank you to the POP Team and all the Sponsors, this was my first ever bariatric event and I loved it and had such an amazing time 💜 So informative and helped keep me going forward with my goals! Thank you thank you thank you!! It was so nice meeting so many great people in person instead of just seeing you all on a screen 😊😊💜💜 - Terry Bowen

  • Thank you Laura for an amazing weekend! I can’t wait for the next event! - Tiffany Lewis

  • Thank you everyone for such a fun, inspiring, informative, and motivating weekend!! - Shona Hoffman

  • Biggest takeaway for me is that I found my tribe of people. I wasn’t alone and am stronger for it. I knew I was right where I need to be with this community and I’m grateful. I also learned that it is 100% ok to put yourself first and fight for you. It’s a community that I cherish and am lucky to find. - Allie Olofson


  • I attended last year and I’m going to try to attend every year now. It was so good meeting and connecting with people that are on the same journey. I think my favorite parts were the game night and the prala. I’m a quiet person, but love games, so it got me out of my comfort zone to go up in the front and play the memory game. - Jennifer Erskine
