MOVIN’ OUT: First Lady Fights Obesity

First Lady, Michelle Obama, is fighting childhood obesity by launching the “Let’s Move” effort.  The website letsmove.gov gives resources to parents, teachers and communities to help them keep our kids healthy.   Resources like a blog, a Facebook page, healthy, affordable meal plans and ideas about how to exercise as a family are included on the site. 

MOMism:”Teach your children well.”  We could change that to teach your children well-being and well-ness!  It’s up to us to make the decisions early on in our children’s lives that will promote healthy habits.  Our nation deserves a healthy, active citizenry…not to mention that healthy citizens keep healthcare costs down.

Michelle Obama is committed to do her part as the First O-MAMA to promote and support the President’s Task Force on Childhood Obesity and the President’s Council on Fitness, Sports and Nutrition as well!
