My wife and I will be there Mike.  We are walking with the FOSA Saturday Morning Group.

Jim what does FOSA stand for and where do you all walk Saturday mornings?

I wish I could attend but I live out in Orlando and still recovering from surgery.  Have a great time

FOSA is the Florida Obesity Surgical Associate's (Dr.'s Grossbard, DiCicco, and Krishnaraj).  The Saturday morning group is our support group that meets the 3rd Saturday of the month.

Hey Mike! You KNOW I will be there!  Just hope I can FIND the place!  When I finally find my way to that mall will it be well marked as to where I am supposed to go? I am really looking forward to meeting you and all of my other local WLS buddies!

Mike, I have not registered because I was not ( and still am not) 100% sure I will be there but I am hoping to. MJ

We had our walk here in Miami this morning!  It was a huge success!  Last year was the first, and today we had at least double the participants and sponsors as last year!  It was a humid, sunny morning, and even tho we were on Key Biscayne, walking along the water, it was HOT!  There were boyscouts along the route handing ou****er bottles - that helped!   I hope the walks held in other towns were as fun as ours was here!  It was a lot of fun! Hope you had a wonderful time also Mike!
