I live in the UK and we have the dubious distinction of being rated as having the worst diets in Europe!
Personally I am horrified by obesity but equally horrified by stick thinness – the happy medium is to eat well and EXERCISE and if the only way to make people realise that is for a high profile person (and Michelle Obama is pretty high profile even over here!) to take that campaign on board and run with it then good on her. I just want to add that last year I turned 51 and decided it was high time to start crossing off stuff on my list “Things I want to do before my kids have me committed”. In October I ran my first marathon – I run my 2nd one next month and love the buzz running gives me!

“They do their jobs with such style, I have to figure if they can get up in the morning and face the mess here, then I must get up and do my part.”

Great point and well said! Thank you so much for stopping by!

Michelle is all kinds of fabulous. The fact that she supported him and he wanted to be President at this point in time, is beyond amazing. They do their jobs with such style, I have to figure if they can get up in the morning and face the mess here, then I must get up and do my part. And, their daughters stand testament to the fine job they are doing at home.

Being beyond 40 myself, I have decided it isn’t about the numbers on the scale or the size of the clothes, it is about being healthy and feeling good and being strong, especially for my kids.

Love.your.blog.

I really like her.

And in an interview she said she first began to work out and go to the gym in the morning so her hubby would get up with the kids.
