"MICHELLE OBAMA", PONE A DIETA A SUS HIJAS CON FRUTA Y LECHE DESNATADA" "UN PEDIATRA LE ADVIRTIÓ QUE SUS HIJAS ESTABAN ENGORDANDO MUCHO, PARA SU EDAD"

"Reform begins, at home: Michelle Obama,

puts daughters on a diet as she launches

anti-obesity campaign".

"Michelle Obama, el pasado mes de octubre en Copenhague".

• "Un pediatra le advirtió, que sus hijas estaban engordando. Las pequeñas deberán tomar más frutas, y leche desnatada. La primera dama estadounidense, es la imagen y portavoz de una nueva campaña gubernamental, contra la obesidad infantil".

"Daily.01.02.2010."Michelle Obama, started a campaign to tackle childhood obesity in the U.S. on a personal vein - with an admission that her own daughters were becoming overweight before a diet nipped the problem in the bud".

"The First Lady said that she had been warned by the family paediatrician that 'something was getting out of balance' with her two children Malia 11, and Sasha, 8."In my eyes I thought my children were perfect - I didn’t see the changes,' Mrs Obama said at an event organised by US health officials".

"Slim look: The Obama girls, Malia, right, and Sasha, were 'becoming overweight' before Michelle, centre right, imposed a diet to solve the problem. The girls then had to adhere to new ground rules - less burgers, low-fat milk, and fruits and water instead of sugary drinks; the change was significant, she said".

"Mrs Obama, was accompanied by Regina Benjamin, whose choice as US Surgeon General sparked nationwide debate about the appropriateness - or lack of it - of having an overweight person heading the country's health department".

"Ms Benjamin also invoked her own struggles with weight gain to enforce their message. The pair then unveiled the White House vegetable garden, taken care of by local schoolchildren in a bid to promote healthier eating".

U.S. president Barack Obama has also in the past publicly voiced concerns about the habits of their children, saying that Malia had become "a little chubby". Concerns over obesity has been growing in the U.S. where two thirds of adults and one in three children are overweight or obese, according to experts".

"Green campaigner: Michelle Obama, harvests vegetables from the garden with children from local schools".

"Kathleen Sebelius, US Health and Human Services Secretary, told yesterday’s launch that the US spends nearly $150 billion "£94 billion" a year fighting obesity, more than it spends on cancer and twice as much as it spent on obesity in 1998".

"The campaign was launched to deter this problem, and the announcement that Michelle would head it was met with a standing ovation from congressmen and senators".
