Low Carb USA is expanding all over the US.
My favorite event is, of course, San Diego!!!
Here's my list of top 10 reasons why I like to attend Low Carb USA San Diego
1. Lots of people, just like me, sharing our stories, resources and favorite foods. I learn so much and
there is growing group of long term weight maintainers who will gladly answer any question attendees might have. Is low carb sustainable? Of course it is.

Awesome volunteers Low Carb USA 2018 |
2.
The speakers and famous podcasters hang out in the hallways and answer questions. For hours after their lectures. The speakers also pose for photos, sign books and are generally awesome. Last year, 3 documentaries were filming at Low Carb San Diego!!!!

Fat: The Documentary first day of filming!! Jill, Vinnie, and me |
|
The awesome Georgia Ede, MD |
|
Well hey, look how tall Shawn Baker, MD is!!! Awesome! |
3.
Location: Right in my back yard- downtown San Diego is about 3-40- minutes travel from my house by car or train. If you bring your family and they aren't as interested, send them to the zoo, on a harbor tour or to Coronado for the day. Or the museums in Balboa Park.

Scooter around downtown San Diego with the fam or your new Low Carb Friends |
4.
Ground Breaking standard of care protocols are being developed at the meetings and will offer people like me a choice between low fat WW points counting and Low Carb, higher fat. Had I been offered that as a child, I might not have tried to eat myself to death as an adult. Word!!!

5. Many of
the vendors are pretty great. SWAG!!! You can walk through the vendor show all 4 days for free and get swag and samples. Just saying...
6. There are
continuing education units for many medical professionals. Not all, so check with your licensing body before you count your CEUS' before they hatch. :)
7.
Connect with local Low Carb groups in cities near you. There are sign up sheets at the back of the room for OC, LA, and other cities where you can attend meat-ups near your home.
|
In LA, you can hang out with Ben Saur, in San Diego, meet him in the hallway |
|
Create funny polls, follow new friends on social media.. |

Met podcaster and dentist Matthew Standish, DDS! |
8.
Walk to great low carb restaurants in the area. Check with the volunteers at the front of the lecture hall and we will get you to your grub within your budget and food likings.
9.
Take a break on the waterfront, play Pokemon, bring your camera and enjoy San Diego.
10.
Learn, keep up with the latest in low carb health benefits. Consider changing something up if its' not working. Share with your friends and family and coworkers.
