President's Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition

[PostToastie]

I think the President's council on physical fitness morphed into the President's council on physical fatness.

[skiracer110]

I love how she speaks to them like she is one of them and yet informing them of higher matters. She is such a great women and so is obama.

[PJ4pt2L]

@CommonSensePeter Committing holocaust on the Economy? Like things were fantastic before Obama... yeah right! BTW, 95% of the American population paid less taxes in 2010 and unemployment is down 4% in the last 30 days. What the heck am I doing replying to someone who buys into the chem trail conspiracies? Can we keep the comments on topic? The "pretty lady" is doing more for our nation's future than you can ever aspire to dream.

[Lookdownhereiam]

LOL love it. 10:46. "I don't want to out anybody on their age."

[Ladymodel]

Yes, we need this! As a future registered dietitian, we need to promote and push nutrition and fitness! It saves lives!

[NWsubmom]

When is Michelle gonna start HER diet?

[DailyDoggy]

I wonder... who rote her speech???

[dantheleo]

Perhaps obama can have another greasy cheeseburger, another cigarette and a few more beers...the alcoholic!

[Ladymodel]

@dantheleo Last I checked Bush was the alcoholic, genius!

[dantheleo]

@Ladymodel So is obama and a smoker!

[Ladymodel]

@dantheleo We all know he smokes but alcoholic, no sweetheart, you got him mixed up with that idiot Bush

[Mikizzle15]

@CommonSensePeter Bush is the one who got the economy this way. We were in debt before Clinton. Clinton got us OUT of debt. Then the stupid republicans voted for Bush, who put us BACK in debt. Change isn't gonna happen in an instant. If Obama was a white man, then this wouldn't be happening. People would be saying what a great job he's doing. It's a shame that people don't realize it's not gonna happen over night.

[chaumont20]

@Mikizzle15 President Clinton, Barney Frank (D) Mass, Chris Dodd (D) Conn, Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae and the term Affordable Housing. That why we're where we are and the sooner you figure that out the better off you'll be. Now we have the people who created this mess telling us that their going to fix it.

[ibrahimkarimmadeira]

Michelle OBAMA au service de l'enfance à grandir

[mongorians22]

@CommonSensePeter Ok, I probably shouldn't have judged you as a douche on the spot, but you must realize that you sound rather uppity when you comment. I'm just saying...

[cobrompton]

@CommonSensePeter Did you just say "the camps"? I didn't know I was speaking to a nutcase. Sorry to bother you, nice tinfoil hat by the way.

[mongorians22]

@CommonSensePeter Wow, a condescending douchebag on youtube. this is new.

[cobrompton]

@CommonSensePeter Your name is misleading.

[timi0000]

Why does the First Lady hate fat people so much. I find this offensive

[Ladymodel]

@timi0000 Did she say she hate fat people? No! She is just promoting healthy diet and exercise

[luvobamas]

I love you Michelle!

[groundhog2008]

I wish that our President and First Lady had more power to get some of these important programs implemented!! We all need to realize that it is the governments job to make sure that our children have available, healthy foods, and providing places especially in the inner cities where they can exercise!! Please, listen to America, and pass this child nutrition bill soon!!!! We dont care what it costs, just get this done!!!!

[zonie1953]

@groundhog2008 Who pays for all of this Hoggy?

[brucencalifornia]

First Lady Michelle Obama,

We are so lucky to have you as our 1st Lady

thank you so much

[MishuTaste]

Our American family life has changed over the years. First of all, there used to be MARRIED COUPLES. <== Isn't that a novel idea? These married couples raised their kids. Daddy when out to work and Mommy went to the grocery store and prepared meals for the family. She didn't buy TV dinners or go to McDonald's. Kids went outside and ran around instead of staring at a computer screen playing video games. Now you have both parents working. Or single mothers working. They come home with...

[MishuTaste]

@MishuTaste ...take out food because they worked all day and they're too tired to cook. In our modern American culture: people either work long hours or have 2 jobs just to pay the bills & buy expensive electronic toys. Then they sit on the couch and watch TV or sit in front of the computer. No time to prepare meals. Work, study, get a degree! Get ahead! Make money! No time for exercise. That's how we become fat.

[incognito9887]

1:05... Golf ;-)

[synapsecracklepop]

Gawud, what a lot of whiney, drooling inspid trolls on this page.  Seriously, do you losers have jobs?

[groundhog2008]

Our First Lady is a perfect example of what here initiative can make!! Anybody who weighs her food and counts her calories has to be serious about it!! America is in love with our First Lady!!

[edfoxx777]

nanny nanny nanny nanny nanny nanny whaaaa whaaaaa im hungry can i have a piece of lettuce? thank you for being our children's new mommy...thank you lazy parents who dont want to take a parental role for allowing big government to let this happen. i love you you love me we a happy family....can you say NANNY STATE boys and girls. eat fresh...

[Topdoginuk]

Cont... Just out of interest, here is an interesting link showing how people in America are watching TV or sleeping because of lack of work. This is a sad situation all over the world. It's a major factor of low self esteem & emotional turmoil leading to comfort eating & escapism via sleep: news.yahoo.com/s/ynews/2010062­3/ts_ynews/ynews_ts2809

As technology continues to erode jobs and the population continues to grow, this will be counter productive to physical & mental health. Help is needed.

[Topdoginuk]

..by a reduction in calories but, be aware of nutritional needs. Remove temptations and plan to diet for a year. Address any negative underlying feelings that may be causing you to over consume. It may just be you are addicted too. Because a change in diet can be depressive, it won't be easy if you are already emotionally hurting. Try adopting a Soup consistency in your eating and practice eating much slower. Avoid artificial sweetners because these effect neurones & cause Bells Palsy.

[Topdoginuk]

Further to my comments earlier, I'd like to furnish a little advice to people embarking on period of self improvement with their health. If you consume many thousands of calories beyond your daily needs, these will be stored as Adipose (fat) because your body is fantastic. Your body needs you to love it not hate it. If you are over weight, your body did a fantastic job. It's stored energy for times of starvation. You just need to trigger it into using it. Go easy but forcefully. Reduce input...

[annie46664]

I so admire you for your commitment towards the people of your awesome nation, especially the children. Please Michelle, I so need your assistance to help end the shocking, blatant LIE$ surrounding HIV & so-called AID$. Trust me dear one, that everything that you've been told is a LIE, absolute fraud & loads of deceit. My playlist offers heaps of trustworthy, reliable & honest info, as does the RethinkingAids . Com website. HIV has NEVER even been obtained from any human being ever! Gallo lied.

[moneymakerisawonderf]

Great Michelle

[atalina08]

Michelle always dress nice! U would never catch her walking down the strret in high heel red stitlettos & a tacky Cheetah dress

[skylineiiigtr]

@atalina08 She's the fucking first lady, none of them have, nor ever will, do that.

[independentview1]

@atalina08 Did you watch the video. Do you think she chose that ridiculous outfit herself or did someone lay it out for her. There has to be someone that saw her and had the courage to tell her how stupid that outfit looks. A 1970's mens belt tied about her waist and a Bozo the clown sized necktie.  Not to mention that haircut.

[LibertyOrBust]

Click the soccerball on the video between "cc" and "360" AWESOME!! Gooo vuvuzelas!! Better than listening to the video.

[AnthonyNews]

great work first lady*******

[crispedfuture]

@jounokur I AM THE ILLUMINATI OVERLORD AND I'VE COME TO GIVE YOU FLUORIDE AND CHIP YOU. NOW, SHUT UP AND PAY THE IRS. LOL NWO LOL. NWO = wrong interpretation

[SharkSport]

What about the President's Council on Smoking?

[inso99]

@SharkSport there are enough recources on stopping smoking. that being said I presume you alluded to the fact that he has managed to stop smoking himself, no?

[SharkSport]

@inso99 there are enough resources on fitness, sports and nutrition, no? That being said, where is your source for the fantasy that he quit smoking?

[groundhog2008]

@SharkSport I wonder the same thing! Tobacco companies are still doing things to entice young people to smoke, yet no punitive action is taken against them! Big tobacco has killed many more people than alcohol has, but yet nothing is done to protect our children from the great harm of tobacco! I still see 12 year old kids walking up to the counter and freely buying them!!!! America should be outraged!!!!

[BabybooR33]

how staged....YAYAY WWWWHHHHOOOOOO!

[Ruinous]

@Blackmetal because it's being run by people who want it to suck

[Ruinous]

Michelle could flap and fly away with all that extra flab on her arms

[ForceSmart]

This council should not exist.

[Topdoginuk]

Children mimic their parents way of eating first. They also compete with siblings for food/sweets. Eating too fast is a big cause of obesity. Roll model behaviour affects children's attitudes. Parents with obesity will set kids on the wrong course. The FORMATIVE years of a child will lay the foundation for how that person eats & behaves the rest of their lives. Their experiences are repeated & manifest a clone-like manner. Children need love & happiness. Parents need contentment & finance.

[asperin]

@Topdoginuk

If you want to help people who do not care about their health donate voluntarily if you want to but forcing others to pay taxes for govt programs is pure extortion.

[Topdoginuk]

@asperin It's quite presumptuous of you to assume that people don't care about their health. Most people actually do care. Some may lack education or motivation but, let's be clear, people don't elect to welcome poor health. I don't subscribe to any form of forced payment in a volatile world of poverty but, I will voluntarily share compassion & advice to help anyone. Many people have commented on my altruistic acts on my Youtube channel. I'm proud to slap the face of selfishness. Very proud.

[asperin]

@Topdoginuk

Altruism doesn't exist, you help people out of the need that comes from within yourself, it is your selfish decision to help others.

But that is not my point.

My point is that these "health programs" are funded with tax money.

That's unfair for people who do not want to help people with bad health.

It is unfair for those who do want to help people with bad health because the concept of taking money by force is what interferes with individual liberty.

Let people donate voluntarily.

[Topdoginuk]

@asperin First and foremost human nature is selfish so, to rely on voluntary donations or help would be foolish and result in a wider gap, misery & hatreds. Your words are driven by this human selfishness for self preservation. You, like most people, would rather see people suffer and die and, all the time be indifferent to their plight. This is why we all live in a world of inequality & hate which results in acts of hate, revenge & terrorism. Greed & selfishness is like a disease & it's spread

[Topdoginuk]

It's great to see the US is addressing this issue of health & fitness. Many in the UK are suffering obesity too. The problems that cause this misery are very complex indeed. The body has been shaped through eons of time yet, we consume calorie/fat laden foods. These are addictive if over consumed. A huge issue is comfort eating too. Family & financial breakdown & inequality leads to misery that causes over eating & creates a vicious cycle of low self esteem & ridicule. Adults roll models needed.

[Agumon5]

┌∩┐(◕_◕)┌∩┐ - To all the people who can't see that there's a fundamental problem with the diet in this country. This is probably one of the most important issues addressed so far. Would be nice to be known as the most active and athletic country in the world for a change.

[asperin]

@Agumon5

But the problem is when you force people to pay taxes for govt programs like these.

If you want to help these obese people donate voluntarily, don't steal from me.

[crispedfuture]

ATTENTION WHITEHOUSE: We don't want to see Michelle Obama. We want real issues/announcements. THUMB THIS UP IF YOU AGREE.

[Salladsdressing]

@crispedfuture This is a real issue. If americans were healthier the costs for healthcare would go down sharply since demand for healthcare would drop.

That is economics lesson 1

[crispedfuture]

@Salladsdressing I'm guessing you're not successful in life because you believe your own shit

[Salladsdressing]

@crispedfuture

Are you seriously suggesting that obesity is not a huge health factor!? I.e is then also a huge COST factor?! Seriously?

Being Project Manager and economic student at this age i would regard myself as succsessful ;)

[crispedfuture]

@Salladsdressing I never said that. My point is that you extrapolated a conclusion based on my comment. I`m saying that I don`t care about this topic. Done with this convo

[rr92890]

@crispedfuture Diabetes and Obesity is a real issue....

[crispedfuture]

@rr92890 You missed the point. You're obviously not intelligent so either hit the books or shut up.

[synapsecracklepop]
