A point well proven. Bill Clinton, our fattest President in recent history
(actually since Taft), loves McDonald's. He would frequently interrupt his
famous runs to get supersized. Of course he never got as supersized as
Michael Moore. I hope Clinton overcame his fast food and sexual addictions.

The most ethical administration in history!



He was on Rachel Ray last week toutingh healthy eating in our schools
(which I will agree, is a deplotable situation)...stated he has lost 15
lbs 15 times and that he is a product of his SOuthern cultural
conditioning abaout eating fried foods...



Lived in the south almost all my life. You don't have to succumb to
that cultural thing. It doesn't take two pounds of fatback to make
turnip greens taste good. If he were a "real" runner instead of a
"hey look at me" public relations runner, he would not have to worry
about weight and would not be on the yoyo.

Schools are trying to alter their menu's in this area. A good thing.
Many kids get their best meal of the day at school. Working parents
come home and fill them with fast food, or processed carb meals.

Frank,

(Same age as Clinton, lives in the south, runs 35 to 40 miles a week,
eats all he wants but healthy choices, skinny as a rail, doesn't gain
a pound)


The school lunches here in Isle of Wight Co VA are pathetic. They are
mostly high carb, hi fat, and have little vegetable content. More often
than not, lunch is a pizza or taco derivative. On top of that, kids are
allowed to eat during class, so they bring in candy and junk food. Mr
Sails has a "no eating" policy in his room, which has been very
unpopular...he allows a bottle of water only. They may chew gum and kids
that are in detention have the lovely job of scraping it off the bottoms
of the tables. (they do wear rubber gloves for this activity)...
