This Week's POTW!

Thank you K&K for honoring me with POTW for this past week.  It has been my pleasure coaching several fellow OHers to accomplish their goal of finishing a marathon.  I know that this feat will give them confidence to do many more amazing things in their lives! This week's POTW is an amazing person.... First, he is a loving husband and devoted father... Second, he is a supportive friend and OH Cali Board Member...  Third, he is an incredible endurance athlete... Have you guessed already? Fourth, he is a beloved teacher... Fifth, he is a talented musician... You've got it!  Our POTW for this week is Gene (Groove Daddy)!  Gene is a fun, supportive, lovable guy!  He is an amazing example for all of us.  He lost an incredible amount of weight and has kept it off for several years.  Groove Daddy has run several marathons and has adopted a balanced, healthy lifestyle.  Recently, he began running with his son.  Over the years, Gene has made many contributions to the Cali Board.  Let's give some kudos to our very own Groove Daddy! Please leave comments on his blog: http://www.obesityhelp.com/member/mrwink/uzone,blog/action,c omments/blog_id,19489/blog_post_id,26625/

Wow, this post looks nothing like it was supposed to!  I guess I have lost my way in all the new site technology.  Oh well, the message is still the same, just a different format!

 Scott No you haven't lost your way, OH has, They have forgotten how to separate everything.  This has been going on for a week I think now. Sure makes it harder to read.  Well I just wanted to say Good Choice for our new POTW. Take care and have a wonderful St. Paddy's Day. CONGRATULATIONS GROOVE DADDY. HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY

What a great pick Scott.

Congrats Gene..
