WALK FROM OBESITY
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Registration begins at 7 AM
Walk(1 mile) begins at 8 AM
Location: The Bruce Trent Park (Corner of Vegas Drive and Rampart Blvd)
Go to the following website:http://www.walkfromobesity.com/
Dr. Teng's office is organizing the walk. I e mailed Tina. She said please don't register on line.(she said the National Organization is sometimes slow in getting info to her). So...download the printable registration form and print it out. The registration fee is $25...that covers cost of shirt(which Tina is ordering). There will also be some vendors at the walk...yay!!! Freebies.
I'm going to download the form at work on Sunday(yea...printer issues at home) and try to get over to Dr. Teng's office this week to drop it off and get the ball rolling. If anyone has any questions...feel free to message me or call Dr. Teng's office. Let's show that Vegas Spirit!!!!!!
I just went to a new doctor here in Henderson, and that doctor said that he would put in for my referral for the work. But I am having a problem finding a plastic surgeon that will accept Tricare. Coming out of pocket is absolutely not an option. I don't want to have to travel back to AK to get the surgery done, as I know for a fact that getting it done there would not be an issue at all. Does anyone know of a PS that accepts Tricare in the LV area?
Any information would be fantastic.
