Michelle Obama said a doctor told her the food she was giving her daughter was impacting her health: 'One of the worst feelings I've had as a parent'
Insider ^ | 7/6/2023 | Talia Lakritz

Former first lady Michelle Obama is continuing the work she started in the White House to promote and improve children's health and nutrition.

In an essay for Oprah Daily published Thursday, Obama recalled how her early years as a parent often meant feeding her young children delivered and prepared foods out of convenience.

"Grabbing prepared foods becomes simpler than cutting up carrots. Ordering delivery is sometimes all you have energy for," she wrote.

"I still remember taking one of my girls for a well-child visit and having the doctor tell me that all those simple choices I was making were negatively impacting her health. It was one of the worst feelings I've had as a parent — and one of the biggest wake-up calls of my life. I was a little scared, and also a little exasperated."

You’d be angry, too, if you had to tuck it.

When the Obamas lived in Chicago, THEY HAD A PRIVATE CHEF and her mother lived with them and looked after the girls!

This is just another big fat LIE!

She could’ve just fired the chef. She didn’t have to murder him.

The solution: get a personal chef. Preferably one who also appreciates the importance of exercise — like paddleboarding.

She had a $300,000/year no-show job that was eliminated when Barry won the Senate seat. Frauds to their core.

I thought the O’Bamas had a “Fancy Like” chef that fed the family. What’s Mooch talking about? She doesn’t feed them. The family “chef” fed them until recently.

You bet. Big Mike is "packing more heat" than both Barry and Brandon combined.

I know...I probably know more about them than you do, such as the fact that Obama hero worshipped Harold Washington ( Chicago’s first black mayor, who was a TERRIBLE mayor! ) and wanted to become the mayor of Chicago, whilst he was still just a “COMMUNITY ORGANIZER”. ;^)

As is her style, MO thought she could just do as she wanted, instead of getting educated to raise a child.

Has she addressed her daughter’s smoking habits with the “wellness” doctor?

I can just picture Michelle, frowning with furrowed brow at the list of ingredients on the side panel of a box of Coco Puffs.

Never forget the crap her school food initiative provided. Many went hungry because they were growing kids getting starvation diets.

I doubt her daughters will be eating the bug-diets the leftists are proposing.
