Rhode Island Walk from Obesity

Rhode Island Walk from Obesity YOU can really make a difference in the lives of those touched by obesity.

While advances have been made in the prevention and treatment of obesity, more remains to be done. It is estimated that nearly 93 million Americans are affected by obesity and that number is predicted to climb to 120 million in the next five years. There is hardly a family anywhere that hasn't in some way been affected by obesity related illnesses. The Walk from Obesity combines an enjoyable event with the potential to raise significant sums for the fight against obesity.

Thin green beans called Haricot Vert and are super tender and perfect texture for the bariatric diet. Cooked in boiling water for a minute and tossed with garlic seasoned olive oil. A delicious addition to the bariatric diet.

There is Still Time to Participate in our 2012 Fall Walk from Obesity event October 6, 2012 at Slater Memorial Park, Pawtucket, RI!!!!

This fall, we have 35 cities gearing up to bring a Walk from Obesity event to a city near you! Individuals gather and Walk to bring awareness to the disease of obesity. Most of the Walk events allow you to choose how far you walk. Some Walks hold group exercise sessions like zumba, as well as raffles and drawings. You can also expect to find vendor booths and some fun activities for the kids, such as face painting at select Walk events.

If you are unable to attend any of our events, you can still help by making a contribution to one of the events. Simply choose a city that you would like to participate in or support by clicking on their link through our online event list. Once you are have accessed the page, you will have the option to register or donate to that event.



These events are all organized and presented by local volunteers that donate their time and money to make these events possible. We would be unable to make the Walk from Obesity a nationwide event without their hard work and dedication.

Also, there is still time to become a local sponsor for many of our events. For more information on sponsoring or attending as a local vendor, please contact the local event leader Julie Nolan (401) 481-4339 (also listed at the bottom of each event’s online page).
