Summit On Obesity

Summit On Obesity

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thought I'd share this. My wife and I were interviewed for
one of the segments ABC will be broadcasting next week on
Good Morning America, either Tuesday or Wednesday. It should
be a set of very interesting reports on obesity all week. I
encourage everyone to watch.

TIME MAGAZINE AND ABC NEWS ANNOUNCE “SUMMIT ON OBESITY”

Presented by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Scheduled
for June 2-4, 2004, in Williamsburg, Va.

TIME magazine and ABC News are inviting leaders to a
groundbreaking summit to address the nation’s obesity
epidemic and to propose solutions.

“Obesity is such an ugly word that many Americans who are
obese shy away from discussing the problem," says Jim Kelly,
Managing Editor of TIME magazine. “But getting over that
shame is the first step in understanding the complex reasons
why a growing number of Americans are seriously overweight.
This conference is about offering solutions, not about
finger wagging."

In addition to the Summit, TIME magazine and ABC News are
planning special reports that will be published and aired
the first week of June. Participating ABC News broadcasts
include Good Morning America, World News Tonight with Peter
Jennings and Nightline. Peter Jennings will anchor World
News Tonight from the conference on Thursday, June 3.
Additional reports and coverage will be provided by TIME.com
and ABCNEWS.com, as well as by ABC News Radio and ABC News
Live.

Incredibly busy at work: very little time to do anything
online. I've pretty-much maintained my weight, and built up
a decent amount of muscle-mass. Keeping on, y'know? grin
