 Let's go walking Mississippi Home page 

Mississippi has been highlighted recently for being the most obese state in America.
The recent news from Mississippi concerns a controversial bill in the legislature to force restaurants to refuse to serve obese people.
The bill failed to even be considered as it was killed in committee. The idea of telling people they can't eat because they are already too obese is foolish. The idea of encouraging people to lose weight and become healthier is not foolish.
As a physician, I see firsthand the damage that obesity can cause to our health and our enjoyment of life. It increases our heath costs tremendously.
There is another more positive program to highlight   which has been promoted in Mississippi to combat the obesity and which deserves the type of publicity that this ill conceived bill attracted to our state.
The Let's Go Walking Mississippi campaign is something everyone in our state can be proud of. I have been a resident of Mississippi since 1979 and there have been many positive changes that have occurred during the last 29 years. Mississippi has its share of problems but certainly no more so than other states which all have their problems. There are many distinguished educators, athletes, musicians, actors, politicians, physicians, authors, artists, and outstanding individuals from all walks of life who hail from Mississippi.
 This program is being promoted heavily in the Mississippi media statewide and has been fully supported by Governor Haley Barbour and his wife Marsha. If you want to see more about the life in Mississippi in the year 2008 just follow the links.
