Yakima Loses and Wins
YAKIMA --- Yakima just showed it can take the cake, by eating a little less of it.
"Obesity has become truly a health nightmare for us and so it brought some awareness to that. I can testify that I feel great," Mayor Dave Edler smiled. A challenge was on after Yakima and Yuma, Arizona made the list of some of the nation's fattest cities. Yakima was the biggest loser. 120 people lost more than a thousand pounds combined in just eight weeks. Dave Edler lost 18. Yakima will get some Yuma treats as a prize.
