All Levels of Government Come Together for First Time to Discuss Childhood Obesity
WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Mayors from across the
nation are participating today in the Childhood Obesity Prevention Summit
at the Grand Hyatt Washington. Hosted by the Leadership for Healthy
Communities, a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the theme of this meeting is "Connecting Leaders to Support Healthy Children."
For the first time ever, this summit will bring together elected
officials and policy leaders from all levels of government to discuss
innovative partnerships, promising practices, and policy-relevant research
that create healthier communities. Mayors and other leaders will share the
policy approaches they have taken to prevent childhood obesity, increase

Healthy Communities, which engages and supports state and local leaders in
efforts to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic through policies that
support healthy eating and active living.
"Childhood obesity has taken on epidemic proportions in the U.S. and is
disproportionately affecting children in poor and underserved communities
in our nation's cities. The Childhood Obesity Prevention Summit offers an
unprecedented opportunity for elected and appointed officials at all levels
of government to meet and exchange strategies to combat this growing
epidemic," said Tom Cochran, USCM Executive Director.
Participating mayors include: Mayor Robert Cluck, M.D. (Arlington, TX),
Mayor Joseph Curtatone (Somerville, MA), Mayor Darwin Hindman (Columbia,
MO), Mayor Juan B. Tudela (Saipan, Mariana Islands), Mayor Kevin A. Burns
(North Miami, FL), Mayor Lou Ogden (Tualatin, OR), Mayor Art Madrid (La
Mesa, CA) and Mayor Wayne J. Hall Sr., (Hempstead, NY).

in the country today, each represented in the Conference by its chief
elected official, the Mayor.

On the TODAY show this morning they featured a very interesting segment titled "5 Websites That Will Change Your Life". And obviously the web site I was most interested to learn more about was "fat secret".
in their own words... "fatsecret is a new online diet, nutrition and weight loss community that harnesses the collective contributions of our members to generate practical and motivating information so that you can make better decisions to achieve your goals."
My son Matthew would say this posting is totally random but I thought since my niece Lauren asked me to vote for her friend Wesley who's in a Cosmopolitan Magazine Hot Bachelors competition, and then send his info to my friends so that they too could vote for him I thought Wesley could use some help and votes from our global community of friends at mypetfat.
Obviously Wesley has pretty much done a"weigh" with any of his "petfat".
Good luck Wesley!
And if you vote you're automatically entered to win a PINK IPOD, a perfect match for Dr. Beck's PINK covered Beck Diet Solution!
