ABC News’ Arlette Saenz reports:

First Lady Michelle Obama discussed the need to improve childhood obesity rates and promote a healthy lifestyle at a young age with attendants of today’s plenary session of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute’s 2010 Policy Conference.

“It’s an issue that keeps me up at night, not just as First Lady, but as a mother, and that is the health of our children – in particular, the epidemic of childhood obesity in America today,” Mrs. Obama said.

I can see why FLOTUS is concerned about weight gain and body image.

“It’s an issue that keeps me up at night, not just as First Lady, but as a mother, and that is the health debt of our children” Mrs. Obama said.

Isn't that what she meant?/s

My guess is that it is actually indigestion from the Obamas gorging themselves on the backs of the 53% of us who pay income tax.

Children's health keeps FLOTUS up at night

And I thought it was indigestion from all of the Wagu beef and partying done at the WH.

Maybe it’s the rich food at all those White House extravaganzas that’s keeping you up, MO.
Really, she’s as over-the-top as her hubby with this messiah complex. It’s insulting to the public.

LOL. For most, financial uncertainty keeps us up at night. I’m so glad she has no worries of her own that she has time to worry all night for a faceless obese child.

Every bed she climbs into probably collapses due to the weight of that caboose....

Partying 2-3 nights a week with flowing booze and expensive food doesn’t exactly set a good example. But..don’t expect our rulers to have the same rules and regulations as we do.

Good grief. Stupid shoes. The dress is quite nice, although it hits her at exactly the wrong place to accentuate the width of her legs. Below the knee with cute brown shoes and this would be a nice outfit.

But, I can imagine since she never sleeps while worrying about fat kids that she just too exhausted to put her outfits together.
