re: #114 Brother Holy Cruise Missile of Mild Acceptance

As someone working to lose weight and get in shape I applaud anyone who does anything to better themselves physically. I’ve lost 15lbs already and have 20 more to go and while I joke that my success so far is the result of exercise and starvation it’s really not that easy to get the pounds off and keep them off unless you start looking at the foods you eat differently.

I love El Monterey beef and bean chimichangas, throw 3 in the oven and then top with shredded cheese and they are delicious. I looked at the nutrition info recently and discovered they are 350 calories each, not to mention the amount of sodium and other crap in them.

The idea that we’d punish someone for what they did to try and get fit (or at least healthy) is ridiculous considering all the other reasons we have to punish the republicans.

Congrats on the weight loss!

I find the whole article beyond petty. As if you need to eat like a “Real Murican” because we need a macho President! No tea sipping allowed!

I think Maureen Dowd is rubbing off on the NYT staff. Maybe they are passing the brownies.
