REAL women have hips and buns and thighs, and carry a certain percentage of body fat because it is optimum for carrying children, in other words, they have healthy babies. That is the way NATURE intended it. The opposite example in a First Lady would be Jackie Kennedy, who it seems could neither hold a baby in her body very well - she was subject to miscarry- losing several, nor seemed to hold much real interest for her husband.well well,

First Lady to Launch Very Ambitious Campaign to End Childhood Obesity in One Generation
By LEE FERRAN
Feb. 9, 2010Michelle Obama is formally announcing today what she called a "very ambitious" program to end the American plague of childhood obesity in a single generation.
"We want to eliminate this problem of childhood obesity in a generation. We want to get that done," the first lady told "Good Morning Americas" Robin Roberts in an exclusive morning television interview. "We want our kids to face a different and more optimistic future in terms of their lifespan."

Cuz she's all slim n trim, right?
She's a 40 something mother of two ...
I'd really like to see the economics of parents of children in the obese catergory.
Government should hammer hammer hammer them on their lifestyles.
Might be a motivation to get off the Gov't cheese.

Yes. I've heard it said that it's only in America where the poor people are fat.
Today I bought a green pepper for $1.12 and a leek for $1.99. (that's right...I didn't take a leek...I payed for it)
For that money, I could have bought THREE 99-cent cheeseburgers at McDonalds, and had 14-cents left over.
THAT'S where the problem is. Healthy foods are too expensive.

Don't know where you live, but here in Cali, you are shopping in the wrong store.

I think the problem is that the vegetables that I purchased came from Cali, yet the store in which I purchased them is as far away from Cali as you can get while still being in the USA.

A well-conceived, robustly-funded reauthorization bill would:
Reduce hunger and food insecurity in America. A recent USDA Report showed that one in every four children live in households struggling against hunger;
Help reduce childhood overweight and obesity;
Improve child nutrition and health, and enhance child development and school readiness;
Provide fair wages and health care for food service workers. Food service workers are often paid poverty wages with few benefits and no paid sick days.

I hope she's successful. Kid's are too fat and lazy these days. Back in my day we did this thing called "playing outside." I understand that seems like a foreign concept to the youth of America today who are glued to their PS3s, PSPs, iPODs, iPhones, etc. as well as their parents who seem to be terrified at the very thought of their children being outside unsupervised because *ZOMG* something bad might happen to them.
they need the civilian army to be in good shape for when they go around gathering bibles and guns from all the Christians
Dude, I'm going to say this once ...
You take your God-hating bullshit to the religion forum and keep it there. I ain't asking.
Johnny Weissmuller for one good example.
all well and good. But i never presented an either/or scenario.
Well you did when you suggested that... seems to me there are a number of options that fall between obesity and anorexic/bullemic.
So she wants to create an army of anorexic and bullemic teens who are pissed at their parents?
Anyway, good luck to her. But i dont think she should get a penny of taxpayer money.
I think she should shave a few pounds off of that ghetto-bootie of hers first before she starts wagging her finger at our kids.
So far, I've only read one page, but I guess no one cares that our kids have become noncompetitive in sports (there goes the Olympic wins in future years), are so unhealthy they already are in the danger zone with high blood pressure, will require medical attention younger and longer than ever before (at whose cost?), and generally in poor physical condition. What will our soldiers look like in 20 years?
When one-half of our population is overweight, and a third morbidly obese, with children not far behind, this is just one more huge negative factor contributing to the United States ever being able to reassert itself as the most productive, forward thinking, forward moving, and healthiest country in the world.

I didn't see one single soul advocating kids being overweight or unhealthy. How did you possibly get that out of what you read?
