We have selected Saturday, June 19 for the First Annual Serotonin-Plus Fashion Show...Location will be the Bobby McKeys piano bar at the National Harbor in Maryland right over the Wilson Bridge...We are going to be working with a local charity, as the charity part of this function willl be to donate clothes to people who can ill-afford professional clothes for trying to get back into the workplace....
The inspirational part: Showing that when a person loses weight, that person can feel self-confident enough to stroll on a stage in front of others to wear something he/she never would have considered proudly wearing in front of others. When we lose weight, we gain a whole lot of self-confidence. We are asking our patients who have seen many sizes go down to be a part of our very fun event. These same patients will be asked to donate their clothes that no longer fit.
I wrote Michelle Obama a letter yesterday inviting her to this function, as she is focusing many efforts on bringing greater awareness and intervention of childhood obesity. Weight problems in children begin with the parents. We are trying to heighten awareness of the national epidemic of obesity. Losing weight makes us healthier but also makes us more self-confident. A higher self-esteem makes us happier people. Being healhier makes us happier. Taking less medications makes us happier. Lets all strive to be happier.
