More ways to fight Childhood Obesity-Read on!!

I know we all just took part in the Walk from Obesity this past Saturday.  As you also my know that I am a Critical Care Nurse caring for adult patients with heart disease.  Over the past years, I have noticed a trend of younger patients in our units.  This is linked directly with Childhood obesity.

I am a supporter of the Walk from Obesity and the American Heart Association.  The Nashville Heart Walk is this Saturday.   Anyone who would like to join my and the St. Thomas team, please PM me and I'll get you the location, time and other information.

The reason for my post this afternoon, I got an email from the American Heart Association about Endangered:  Stinky Sneakers---this is a campaign to get America's youth out and moving more.    I am attaching the link for further information.  It has a website to visit and get more information.  I thought maybe some of you would be interested in sharing this with schools, their administration and school nurses and PE teachers.
