Topic: Summer Fun
 Hello Members!

Hope your summer is starting off well.  I wanted to check in and see how everyone was doing.  What summer fun is everyone having?  Please remember to drink plenty of water no matter what you are doing.  Get up and get moving if possible.  It pays off in the long run.

Look forward to hearing from everyone.

 That is great!  Do you have any last questions or concerns?  Do you have a support person that is going to be there with you?  Just the simple reminder questions.

Topic: Surgery Date Set
Good news just received my surgery date from Vanderbilt it is Mon Feb 27th can't believe it is here, it sure seems like a long time from July 1st when I stated this journey. Friends ask me how I am feeling now the date is set all I can say is excited,a little nervous but I am looking forward to beginning this new chapter in my life.

Topic: Walk From Obesity event on October 2 at 3:00pm
Has anyone else gotten a message about this event? My message came from an e-mail from the Vanderbilt Clinic. Anyway, it's a 1-mile fun walk/fundraiser at 3:00 in the afternoon in Nashville at Centennial Center for the Treatment of Obesity. There will be some vendors there, too. The information can be found at this link:

http://walkfromobesity.donordrive.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=d onorDrive.eventDetails&eventID=513&destination=E

On-line registration is $25 and registration on the day of the event is $35.

I signed up to be on Team Vandy. It sounds like fun! I hope you guys will come out, too!

If you can't make it but want to donate toward the cause, my fundraising page is at the following link:

I hope to see you guys there!
