Meh. Maybe she and Megan McCain can take some Pilates classes together.

Evidently her pro-abortness makes her fit enough in the eyes of our king.

This is ridiculous ... I don’t give a d*mn what the woman weighs. What I DO care about is that, from what I have read, we have promoted a good and kind country doctor with no administrative or policy experience to be the expert on health policy in the US. Typical liberal “good intentions trump actual experience” thinking.
To: bruinbirdman
If my experience is any guide, it’s quite common for middle aged black women to be overweight.
Not everyone has thin genes. She has a high stress job and probably little energy left to jog 5 miles a day.
People ought to give her a break. It is really stupid to think that the public will decide it’s healthy to be obese because of Dr. Benjamin’s size.

Come to think of it, this is probably a diversionary tactic “Let’s talk about her weight and hope people will overlook that she has no qualifications”.

She's not that heavy. Certainly not obese. Just a big gal like many other women her age. She'll not die of a heart attack while holding office.
That said, it might be inspirational of her to announce a fitness program and let the nation track her progress along that path.

I’ve lost 70 pounds since two years ago, from 245 to 175 lbs, and I’m a 6’1” male.
Fifty of those pounds were lost by portion control, not exercise.
When I confessed to being a glutton, it helped me to realize how to lose weight.
