To round off National Obesity Week and our lively and fun campaign to support the work of The National Obesity Forum, staff and patients at Vita Clinics Birmingham Weight Management Clinic entered into a bit of Salsa on Friday 6th November.
Some of the Vita Clinics team displaying hidden talents!
The heat was on and the rhythm was rocking. Whether we were Brucie’s favourites was anyones’ guess! Nevertheless, we had great fun and it proved that being active can be great fun!
Kelly and Carol had been waiting for Ricky Martin and Antonio Banderas to show...but alas..
We hope that our activities across the week have really provoked ‘body mass imagination’ and broken down some the stigma that exercise and healthy living can be dull and daunting. We have hopefully shown that by incorporating a variety of activity and exercise is probably the best way to achieve long term weight control and a healthy lifestyle – the aim of National Obesity Week.
A huge thank you to our patients for their support, to members of the public for also joining in the spirit, and last but not least our devoted staff for doing what they believe in with passion! A big thank you to Jane Edmonds, Bariatric Dietician for helping me to pull the week together and coming up with some great ideas… you’re a marvel! Finally, a ‘big up’ to the team at The National Obesity Forum for their encouragement and support both leading up to this week and on a day-by-day basis… we hope you’ve had fun watching and feel that we’ve done a small part to help get some serious messages across.
David Allison, General Manager, Vita Clinics
