While addressing the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) this week, First Lady Michelle Obama declared obesity a threat to black Americans comparable to oppressive racial policies of the past. Instead of citing positive black role models who refuse to fall victim to a supposed threat that is terrorizing their race, Mrs. Obama instigated another racial struggle for the civil rights organization to unnecessarily embed itself.
We are living today in a time where were decades beyond slavery, we are decades beyond Jim Crow; when one of the greatest risks to our childrens future is their own health, Mrs. Obama told the NAACP on July 12. African American children are significantly more likely to be obese than are white children.
One African American who did not allow herself to fall victim to the so called obesity epidemic is Venus Williams, a professional tennis player who has won three Olympic gold medals and seven Grand Slam singles titles. Williams is a shining example of a black American child who thwarted the health threats posed by foods Mrs. Obama and her fellow food cops claim are this generations most notorious genocidal murderers.
In the July issue of Bon Appétit magazine, Williams shares her secrets for how she fuels up for her work on and off the court. Williams reveals she is not afraid of the poisonous foods that Mrs. Obama and radical food watchdog groups like the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) are waging war against.
Ruths Chris is my favorite restaurant, and I always order the rib eye, medium-rare, said Williams, which undoubtedly makes the anti-meat PCRM cringe in fear for the tennis stars life. According to the PCRM ...

YES....I know.....but, I think the more protein you eat, the less calories you consume.....cause, you aren’t hungry! What’s amazing is a year ago my doc told me to try the Caveman Diet...cause I complained of being hungry all the time.....I also added 1500mg Niacin (the REAL kind) aned 1500mg Niacinamide to my daily vitamin regimen...and my HDL is NOW 112.....my HDL/chol ration is almost 2:1...which he recently told me is UNHEARD of.....so, I don’t buy into the “don’t eat meat/fat” crowd. But, I also think individuals have to find what works for them....oatmeal leaves me hungry by 10am....if I eat 2 eggs with some other fat....I’m good till past noon. Oh, and I can still wear the clothes I wore 25 years ago, pretty much...that said....I’m heading to Costco and craving a Yogurt Strawberry Sundae....and I will have it for lunch!
How does this woman, with her prominent arse and jutting hips, dare to speak out on weight related issues? Did they remove all mirrors in the White House before Zero & wife slithered in?
"Harrumph!"
(300 pounds)
Not bad at all.
She outed herself as Sean Hannity fan; who knew?!
And rib-eye medium rare, yummmm.....
Getting older slows your metabolism too.

“Four Yorkshiremen”
[ from the album Live At Drury Lane, 1974 ]
The Players:
Michael Palin - First Yorkshireman;
Graham Chapman - Second Yorkshireman;
Terry Jones - Third Yorkshireman;
Eric Idle - Fourth Yorkshireman;
The Scene:
Four well-dressed men are sitting together at a vacation resort.
‘Farewell to Thee’ is played in the background on Hawaiian guitar.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Aye, very passable, that, very passable bit of risotto.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
Nothing like a good glass of Château de Chasselas, eh, Josiah?
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
You’re right there, Obadiah.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Who’d have thought thirty year ago we’d all be sittin’ here drinking Château de Chasselas, eh?
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
In them days we was glad to have the price of a cup o’ tea.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
A cup o’ cold tea.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Without milk or sugar.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Or tea.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
In a cracked cup, an’ all.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Oh, we never had a cup. We used to have to drink out of a rolled up newspaper.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
The best we could manage was to suck on a piece of damp cloth.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
But you know, we were happy in those days, though we were poor.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Because we were poor. My old Dad used to say to me, “Money doesn’t buy you happiness, son”.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Aye, ‘e was right.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Aye, ‘e was.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
I was happier then and I had nothin’. We used to live in this tiny old house with great big holes in the roof.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
House! You were lucky to live in a house! We used to live in one room, all twenty-six of us, no furniture, ‘alf the floor was missing, and we were all ‘uddled together in one corner for fear of falling.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Eh, you were lucky to have a room! We used to have to live in t’ corridor!
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Oh, we used to dream of livin’ in a corridor! Would ha’ been a palace to us. We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woke up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us! House? Huh.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Well, when I say ‘house’ it was only a hole in the ground covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
We were evicted from our ‘ole in the ground; we ‘ad to go and live in a lake.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
You were lucky to have a lake! There were a hundred and fifty of us living in t’ shoebox in t’ middle o’ road.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Cardboard box?
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Aye.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
You were lucky. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down t’ mill, fourteen hours a day, week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when we got home our Dad would thrash us to sleep wi’ his belt.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at six o’clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of ‘ot gravel, work twenty hour day at mill for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would thrash us to sleep with a broken bottle, if we were lucky!
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to ‘ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o’clock at night and lick road clean wit’ tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit’ bread knife.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o’clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
And you try and tell the young people of today that ..... they won’t believe you.
ALL:
They won’t!
You’ve never seen a picture of Mary Todd Lincoln?
I don't know about the Chinese diet but in Japan and Korea, their rice serving bowls are a lot smaller than ours and they eat lots of meat or fish with veggies.
For example, most Korean BBQ is served with either lettuce or sesame leaves on the sides. You can avoid the rice all together.
You take a little piece of meat, add some veggies, garlic and ssamjang or gochujang and roll it up like a burrito and pop it in your mouth. Samgyeopsal Gui Recipe Korean BBQ Pork Belly
“The fact that more and more families get 90+% of their food from cans and bags instead of home canning and home baking which was the norm until the late-seventies contributes.
The fact that more families are two working-parent families, so the kids are not cooked home meals, are not taken to the park or outside on a regular basis is part of the problem.”
If the feminist movement hadn’t basically forced women to work outside of the home, families would remain traditional and mothers would have enough time and energy to focus on their husbands’ and kids’ diets and overall wellbeing. But women bought into the scam, and then their husbands did because the reponsibility to be “provider” was off them. Breaking down the family unit has always helped the liberal movement.
Aye, That’s the one! Thanks. Poor Michelle...
That's all well and good,but Meshall has an a$$ the size of a box car , so she should first clean up her own act before telling everyone else what to do.....MHO
“Did they remove all mirrors in the White House before Zero & wife slithered in?”
Vampires can’t see themselves in a mirror and all she cares about is sucking this nation dry with her kenyan born husband.

If you work your ass off, you won’t have an obese ass.
