Getting Fit

Hi all,

Our local paper had an article on Gary.  The man that's walking across America to bring awareness to obesity in the US.  Gary has gained more and more weight after he got out of the military.  I'm not sure what his total weight was but he's losing it just by walking across the US.  I went to his website and read some of his journal entries and looked at his photos.  It's really neat!  Our 4-H theme in NC this year is "Fit for Health."    I thought this story would be great to share with the kids.

His website is called "A Fat Man's Journey."  If you want to check it out, here's Gary's website:  http://afatmansjourney.com/
