The Walk From Obesity, With Photographic Evidence.
Wetness. The Walk From Obesity 2008.
We are back from a somewhat soggy Walk From Obesity. <---- The photo set is at that link.
I have some very definite ideas about next year's walk, if I have anything to do with it. It simply amazes me that more big city hospitals and surgeons are not involved with something such as THIS. Do you know how many bariatric hospitals and surgeons they are in greater BOSTON? Lots. When I was asked what hospital my Team was "affiliated" with - I stammered. I guess Teams are typically based on surgeon's support groups. To my knowledge, my bariatric hospital is not involved in anything such as the Walk From Obesity.
But, we walked, in the rain, and I hula-hooped. Beth did not know she could. I have NEVER hula-hooped. Ever. I didn't think it was possible. I kept it up, for a couple whiles anyway. Heh heh.
My miniature team. Hey, we still raised a good chunk of change, even if we were just FOUR.
