\nChristina Bellantoni, a senior reporter for TalkingPointsMemo.com pool report on First Lady Michelle Obama Jan. 28, 2010 obesity event, followed by transcript of Mrs. Obama remarks.<\/p>\n

<\/em>
\nNews: Release of a childhood obesity report, some details about FLOTUS’
\nupcoming program to combat childhood obesity and discussion of how big a
\nproblem it is. There were no specific mentions of the health care
\nlegislation currently in limbo on Capitol Hill but references to
\nimportance of this issue as it relates to overall costs.
\nColor: Minimal, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius made a funny joke about
\nbeing a governor.<\/p>\n

First Lady Michelle Obama joined administration health officials to
\nannounce the release of the Surgeon General’s report about childhood
\nobesity at the YMCA in Alexandria, Virginia. Speaking were Dr. Regina
\nBenjamin, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, and Dr. Judith Palfrey,
\nPresident of the American Academy of Pediatrics<\/p>\n

FLOTUS aide said the event is one more step toward the expected formal
\nlaunch in a few weeks of a major program aimed at targeting childhood
\nobesity. The first lady’s effort will be a new priority in the next few
\nmonths. It will be a public-private partnership, and today’s event
\nshowcases the potential for teamwork to combat the problem, the aide
\nsaid. (Mrs. Obama has had a host of events that fall into this category,
\nfrom promotion of the White House Kitchen-Garden to speaking with health
\ncare officials in the year President Obama has been in office.)<\/p>\n

Before the speaking program FLOTUS and the other officials toured a YMCA
\nplayroom that featured interactive video games that are good for groups
\n– bikes set up so kids can race others on a screen, a dancing game, etc.<\/p>\n

Michelle Obama said the room (which your pool did not see) represented
\nthe “next generation” and should be encouraged in other places.
\nChildhood obesity is “nothing short of a public health crisis” that is
\n“threatening the future of this nation,” she said.<\/p>\n

“It’s just easier” to order pizza or go through a fast food
\ndrive-through, especially in tough economic times, she said.<\/p>\n

She touted schools that offer nutritious meals, exercise programs and
\nthe need to increase these things outside of school as well.<\/p>\n

Like she does at many events, the first lady offered a personal story
\nfrom the Obama family about how they made healthier choices. That
\nincludes limiting TV time and keeping an eye on portion size. She said
\nit was “very minor stuff” like throwing in apples and water bottles into
\nSasha and Malia’s school lunches.<\/p>\n

“Small changes can lead to big results,” Obama said.<\/p>\n

Obama: “The approach has to be ambitious … it’s got to be something
\nmeaningful and powerful. … This won’t be easy, let’s begin with that.
\nThis will not be easy and it won’t happen overnight.”<\/p>\n

“It’s going to take all of us, thank God it’s not going to be solely up
\nto me,” Obama said. “Over generations of children we’ll need to keep
\ndoing this.”<\/p>\n

Sebeilus introduced the first lady as “everyone’s favorite vegetable
\ngardener.” Obama later called Sebelius her “partner in crime.”<\/p>\n

The audience of about 50 people included local elected officials,
\nleaders from the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, reps from the YMCA, YWCA
\nand Childrens’ Defense Fund, HHS, Girls Inc. and the National PTA.<\/p>\n

Virginia First Lady Maureen McDonnell, whose husband gave the GOP
\nrebuttal to President Obama’s State of the Union last night, greeted the
\nfirst lady at the event. Alexandria Mayor Bill Eullie and Rep. Jim Moran
\n(D-VA) also were in attendance.<\/p>\n

In her remarks, Sebelius quipped that during the SOTU the night before
\nthey “got a lot of exercise” standing up to applaud so often.<\/p>\n

“If we’re really serious about turning the corner on this issue we need
\neveryone to be involved. we need to make this a national crisis and a
\nnational issue,” she said.<\/p>\n

Sebelius talked generally about health care costs going up, saying “the
\nunhealthier we are as a nation the more our health care costs will
\ncontinue to rise.” She said the administration has “not only a moral
\nobligation but economic imperative to begin to make a change.”<\/p>\n

Sebelius offered CDC stats: The U.S. spends $1 out of every $10 health
\ncare dollars on obesity and its complications. Almost twice today than
\nwhat spent in 1998. That totals $150B a year, more than treating all the
\ncancers in America, she said.<\/p>\n

She said one element is fighting advertising and getting kids away from
\nthe TV so, “They stop being bombarded with the ads that are particularly
\naimed at children on kids’ TV.” She said a recent study shows that on
\nthose programs, “Every 8 minutes you will have a junk food ad. … And
\nnow those ads have spread to video games and Web sites. … That’s
\nanother initiative we’ve got to take very seriously.”<\/p>\n

Sebelius noted that Obama in his SOTU address talked about “the urgency
\nof this issue and nominated [Michelle Obama] to lead a national movement
\nto address it.”<\/p>\n

FLOTUS joked about President Obama’s reference to her last night, saying
\nshe was embarrassed and was wondering “Do I wave?”<\/p>\n

For those who are interested, FLOTUS wore a black pinstriped pantsuit,
\nwith a high-necked, ruffled white blouse and a wide red belt. Her hair
\nwas down and straight.<\/p>\n

Obama recognized Mrs. McDonnell, saying that “We are going to have a
\ngreat time working together” and she is “counting on her” to help as a
\npartner across the Potomac River. She added, “See you in a month at the
\ngovernors gala, so be ready to dance.” The audience laughed and
\nMcDonnell said she and the governor are “practicing.”<\/p>\n

Sebelius, the former governor of Kansas, joked with Mrs. McDonnell that
\nher own husband “still regrets” leaving the “assisted living” that is a
\ngovernor’s mansion by coming to Washington to serve in the Obama
\nadministration.<\/p>\n

“We’re still trying to sort that out,” Sebelius said, and the crowd
\nlaughed.<\/p>\n

(Later, Obama addressed the joke by saying to Sebelius: “We’re glad you
\nmoved out of assisted living … you can come over for dinner.”)<\/p>\n

YMCA president and CEO Neil Nicoll began the event by talking about
\nthings community partners can do to help with children’s health. “There
\n‘s no better way to get children moving than by putting a playground in
\nfront yard. We need to make the healthy choice the easy choice,” he
\nsaid.<\/p>\n

Surgeon General Regina Benjamin talked about the “sobering” trends in
\nchildhood obesity and detailed her report offering a “Vision for a
\nhealthy and fit nation.” She said fitness and healthy eating should be
\nfun and enjoyable.<\/p>\n

“Healthy foods should be affordable and accessible to all Americans,”
\nshe said.<\/p>\n

She also touted breast feeding and employer wellness programs. The
\nreport should be posted here today:
\nhttp:\/\/www.surgeongeneral.gov\/index.html.
\n I have a paper copy if
\nanyone wants it.<\/p>\n

Benjamin said weight and BMI scores are very important but the “total
\npicture is much much bigger.”<\/p>\n

“People want to live long and to live well,” she said.<\/p>\n

Sebelius also lauded YMCA’s playroom next door: “I can’t imagine any
\nchild not wanting to go into the room next door and hang out. I want to
\nhang out.”<\/p>\n

Full remarks of both Sebelius and Benjamin can be found here later:
\nhttp:\/\/www.hhs.gov\/<\/p>\n

Palfrey said there has been an “alarming increase” in the numbers of
\nkids who are obese, and outlined the problems that often come
\nhand-in-hand with obesity: asthma, diabetes, even depression.<\/p>\n

“It does not have to be that way,” she said.<\/p>\n

The key is healthy nutrition and physical activity of at least 60
\nminutes a day, which also improves a child’s ability to learn, she said.<\/p>\n

She talked about a program for kids and parents to “Jump around like
\ncroaking frogs” and got some laughs. She said limiting “screen time” of
\ncomputers and televisions to two hours a day will help.<\/p>\n

“We’re working hard to prevent obesity before it ever starts,” Palfrey
\nsaid. “No single solution is going to work for everyone.”<\/p>\n

There were cheers for FLOTUS as motorcade arrived. Event got started
\njust after 1 p.m. FLOTUS concluded her remarks at 1:55 pm.<\/p>\n

There will be a White House transcript of FLOTUS remarks only.<\/p>\n

From the earlier White House advisory:
\nDr. Regina Benjamin, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, and Dr. Judith
\nPalfrey, President of the American Academy of Pediatrics, will join
\nFirst Lady Michelle Obama to discuss the release of a paper by the
\nSurgeon General on the public health challenge posed by the rise in
\nobesity. The event will highlight the troubling health implications of
\ncurrent obesity rates, particularly among children, and the importance
\nof involving parents, health care providers, schools, and local
\ncommunities in finding comprehensive solutions.<\/p>\n


\nBELOW, FROM THE WHITE HOUSE<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

THE WHITE HOUSE<\/p>\n

Office of the First Lady
\n___________________________________________________________
\nFor Immediate Release January 28, 2010<\/p>\n

REMARKS BY THE FIRST LADY
\nAT EVENT ON SURGEON GENERAL’S REPORT<\/p>\n

YMCA of Alexandria
\nAlexandria, Virginia<\/p>\n

1:36 P.M. EST<\/p>\n

MRS. OBAMA: As you know, from last night, I get embarrassed when people
\nstand up and clap for me. (Laughter.) I don’t really know what to do.
\n(Laughter.) Do I wave, do I — it’s like, please, just sit down,
\neveryone. (Laughter.)<\/p>\n

Good afternoon. I’m thrilled to be here on the floor. (Laughter.)
\nIt’s a great floor. It’s kind of a warm floor, but it’s a good floor.<\/p>\n

Let me begin by thanking the new First Lady in the room, Maureen
\nMcDonnell. We are going to have a great time working together. She is
\nalready very engaged and supportive of these initiatives. And since
\nshe’s so close I am counting on her to work alongside on some of these
\nissues. We’re going to see you in a month at the governors gala,
\nwhatever they call it, so be ready to dance. (Laughter.) And welcome
\naboard.<\/p>\n

MRS. McDONNELL: (Inaudible) — practice.<\/p>\n

MRS. OBAMA: A little practice, absolutely.<\/p>\n

Congressman Moran, again I want to thank you for all your work in this
\narea. I look forward to working with you. Our staffs are already
\ntalking about some things that you’ve been working on for a very long
\ntime, so we’re grateful for your leadership and concern and focus.<\/p>\n

Mayor Euille, again you have been a host to me in your great city, and
\nyou’ve done wonderful work in this area. I had a terrific time
\naddressing the National Conference of Mayors, and I got a very good
\nresponse from your colleagues. I know that the mayors in this country
\nstand ready to work on this issue. They are seeing the effects of what
\neveryone on this floor has talked about, in terms of childhood obesity,
\nand they’re ready to make some changes.<\/p>\n

Also, Dr. Palfrey, it is an honor for us to have you with us. As I’ve
\nshared before, it was through our relationship with our pediatrician
\nthat we even began as a family to start thinking about these issues.
\nAnd it’s our pediatricians and our medical community that are going to
\nwork side by side with families throughout the country. So we’re
\ngrateful for your support. I know that this is not a new issue for you,
\nand I hope that our attention to it makes your job a little bit easier.<\/p>\n

I also want to thank all the folks at the Y for all you’re doing — Neil
\nNicoll, for your work as the national leader. But I know you know as a
\nnational leader the real work happens on the ground at these fine
\nfacilities all throughout the country. The Y has been a leader in
\nensuring that families and communities all over this country have access
\nto places to play. Your mobile physical unit, your PhD unit, that came
\nto the South Lawn helped me debut my hula-hooping skills. (Laughter.) <\/p>\n

But I think the Ys are showing that they are thinking towards the next
\nstage, you know. The room that we were in is the next generation of
\nwhat Ys can be. The mobile unit is something that I didn’t grow up
\nwith, but you’re keeping up with the changes in cultures and communities
\nin a way that is going to make a huge impact to the work that we have to
\ndo in our nation.<\/p>\n

And finally I want to thank my buddy in crime, Secretary Sebelius, for
\nher tremendous leadership and her tremendous friendship. We’re glad
\nthat you moved out of assisted living. (Laughter.) I know it’s hard —
\nI know, I know, I’ll work on him. (Laughter.) But you can come over
\nfor dinner or something. (Laughter.) From your work with the CDC to
\nthe FDA, the Department of Health and Human Services is clearly at the
\nforefront of addressing some of our greatest health issues, and it’s
\ngoing to take their continued commitment. These grants that are coming
\nout, we’ve been working with your department in getting them done. Your
\nstaff has been tremendous in moving very quickly on getting that money
\nout, and I’m anxious to see what all that hard work leads to. So we are
\ngrateful not just to you but all of the thousands of people in your
\nagency who make us all look very good.<\/p>\n

And finally I want to commend our new Surgeon General Dr. Benjamin who I
\nfinally got to meet. (Laughter.) Three months on the job and we’re
\nalready making you crazy, right? (Laughter.) But you’re doing a
\nterrific job just jumping right in. The report is not only timely but
\nit’s right on point. And your perspective, your new way of looking at
\nthis issue, is refreshing, and again it’s right on point. It’s
\npresenting both the dangers of inaction, and a vision for health for
\nthis country. It’s an incredible step in a long journey that we’ll have
\nto take. So we want to thank you for your important work.<\/p>\n

So as we’ve seen, the surge in obesity in this country is nothing short
\nof a public health crisis, and it’s threatening our children, it’s
\nthreatening our families, and more importantly it’s threatening the
\nfuture of this nation. Higher rates of obesity are directly linked, as
\nyou’ve heard, to higher rates of chronic illnesses like heart disease
\nand cancer and diabetes. Even though type 2 diabetes is rare among
\nyoung people, more than three quarters of those who have it are obese.<\/p>\n

In fact, the health consequences are so severe that as the Secretary
\nsaid, medical experts have warned that our children are on track to be
\nless healthy than we are. And there’s never been a generation of young
\npeople who are on track to be healthier than their parents — or less
\nhealthy than their parents.<\/p>\n

And truly, if we’re really honest with ourselves, it’s not hard to
\nunderstand how this happens. I’ve tried to track this through my own
\nlife. <\/p>\n

In some cases, it’s access. Parents have told me — I’ve seen it myself
\n— that they would love nothing more than to feed their kids more
\nhealthy foods, but if you don’t live anywhere near a place that sells
\nfresh produce, it’s very hard to accomplish that goal. <\/p>\n

In other cases, the issue is just convenience. At the end of a long day
\n— and more and more families are experiencing these long days with two
\nparents working and busy schedules — you just get home and you’re tired
\nand you pick up the phone and you order a pizza, or you go to that
\ndrive-thru. It’s just easier. Our modern-day life makes it very
\ndifficult for us to sit down and prepare that meal.<\/p>\n

And a lot of times it’s affordability. In these tough economic times,
\nbuying healthy foods unfortunately feels like a luxury for too many
\nfamilies. They just can’t afford it. We’ve seen stories, we’ve heard
\nstories, of people who know that buying that large gallon of juice is
\ncheaper than buying a gallon of milk. They can’t afford to make
\ndifferent choices.<\/p>\n

And then at schools and in our communities, oftentimes it’s budget cuts
\nthat make it more difficult. Recess and PE are gone for many kids in
\ncommunities all across this country. Parks and playgrounds and
\nafter-school sports are few and far between in too many neighborhoods.<\/p>\n

And for most people, the cause is really a combination of all of these
\nthings. It’s no one particular thing. It’s everything cobbled
\ntogether. <\/p>\n

And let’s face it: There are really just too many pressures on parents
\ntoday.<\/p>\n

And I understand those pressures. I talk about this all the time. It’s
\neasy to live healthy when you live in the White House and you have staff
\nand people who are cooking for you and making sure that it’s balanced
\nand colorful, because I had a hard time doing it before I lived in the
\nWhite House, and that wasn’t so long ago. Barack and I were like any
\nworking couple. I was a working mom with a husband that was busy, so
\nmany times I was the one balancing that load and wrestling with many of
\nthose challenges. And there were plenty of times, I tell you, that
\nyou’d come home tired, you don’t want to hear the kids fuss, and popping
\nsomething in the microwave or picking up a burger was just heaven. It
\nwas a Godsend. <\/p>\n

But we were fortunate enough to have a pediatrician, as I’ve mentioned,
\nthat kind of waved the red flag for me, as a mother, and basically
\ncautioned me that I had to take a look at my own children’s BMI. Now,
\nwe went to our pediatrician all the time. I thought my kids were
\nperfect — they are and always will be — (laughter) — but he warned
\nthat he was concerned that something was getting off balance, because
\nfortunately he was a pediatrician that worked predominantly in an
\nAfrican American urban community, and he knew these trends existed, and
\nhe was watching very closely in his client population, his patient
\npopulation. <\/p>\n

So again, in my eyes, my children were perfect. I didn’t see the
\nchanges. And that’s also part of the problem, or part of the challenge.
\nIt’s often hard to see changes in your own kids when you’re living with
\nthem day in and day out. As parents, we all know and will readily
\nacknowledge broadly that kids in general — we will say we know they
\ndon’t eat right — right? — and we know they don’t get as much exercise
\nas they should, generally. But we often simply don’t realize that those
\nkids are our kids, and our kids could be in danger of becoming obese.
\nWe always think that only happens to someone else’s kid — and I was in
\nthat position. We all want desperately to make the best choices for our
\nkids, but in this climate it’s hard to know what’s the right thing to do
\nanymore. <\/p>\n

So even though I wasn’t exactly sure at that time what I was supposed to
\ndo with this information about my children’s BMI, I knew that I had to
\ndo something; that I had to lead our family to a different way.<\/p>\n

But the beauty was that for me over the course of a few months we
\nstarted making really minor changes. And I share this story because the
\nchanges were so minor. <\/p>\n

We did things like, you know, limit TV time. My kids were already
\nfairly active, but, you know, we cut TV time out during the week, and
\nthat helped increase activity, because they were just running up and
\ndown the stairs annoying me more. (Laughter.) <\/p>\n

We paid more attention to portion size. Didn’t make a big deal out of
\nit, but just sort of said, listen to when you’re hungry, and when you’re
\nfull, stop. <\/p>\n

We reduced our intake of sugary drinks and instead encouraged our kids
\nto drink more water. I just put water bottles in the lunch during the
\nweek, or we had low-fat milk. Again, didn’t make a big deal out of it
\n— just made the change. <\/p>\n

We put more fruits and vegetables in our diets, again, trying to make
\nfor a colorful palate, but you’d slip some grapes in at breakfast time,
\nand throw in an apple at lunch, and pester them about whether they
\nactually ate the apple. (Laughter.) And then you try to balance it out
\nwith something at dinner time. <\/p>\n

I mean, it was really very minor stuff. But these small changes
\nresulted in some really significant improvements. And I didn’t know it
\nwould. It was so significant that the next time we visited our
\npediatrician, he was amazed. He looked over the girls’ charts and he
\nsaid, “What on Earth are you doing?” And I said, “Really, not much, not
\nmuch.” And that’s the good news that we want to share with families,
\nparticularly for kids: Small changes can lead to big results. They’re
\nnot destined to this fate, and they’re not really in control what goes
\ninto their mouths, usually.<\/p>\n

So we know what has led to the obesity epidemic, you know. We know
\ninside — I mean, we’re still learning — but we kind of know. And we
\nknow what we need to do to solve it. We just have to make the
\ncommitment to do it. We really — each and every one of us needs to
\nmake that commitment. We need to provide parents with better
\nnutritional information so that they can make better choices. We need
\nto give our kids healthier options at school, where many kids are
\ngetting most of their meals. We need to make sure they’re spending less
\ntime in front of the TV and playing videogames, and more time exercising
\nand having fun and doing the work of children, which is play. <\/p>\n

But we also know that the solution can’t come from government alone.
\nThat’s something that we just have to remind ourselves. And for many,
\nthat’s a great relief. Everyone has to be willing to do their part to
\nsolve this problem, and everyone has to work together to turn this
\npattern around.<\/p>\n

And that’s exactly what we hope to do through an administration-wide
\ninitiative on child obesity that I’m going to be launching in the next
\ncouple of weeks, along with a number of important partners. <\/p>\n

We’re going to be bringing the federal government together, those
\nresources in partnerships with business, non-profit and the foundation
\ncommunities, all of whom are thrilled to be a part of this endeavor.
\nIt’s just been refreshing to see so many people recognizing that this is
\nthe time to step up and make some changes.<\/p>\n

We’re going to do a number of things — again, some of them small
\nthings. We want to create what we’re calling more healthy schools. And
\nthese are schools that are offering more nutritious meal options during
\nthe day. They’re providing nutritional information to children as part
\nof the curriculum, and they’re ensuring that children are getting the
\nincreased exercise that we know that they need. <\/p>\n

But we also have to focus on increasing the amount of exercise outside
\nof school, and no place — like the Y knows that we need to make these
\nchanges. <\/p>\n

We need to make healthy food options more affordable and accessible.
\nAnd that’s going to be probably one of the toughest things that we need
\nto do. And we need to do this in all communities: urban, rural,
\neverywhere. People have to have the information, they have to have
\naccess in order to make healthy choices. There is nothing more
\nfrustrating that will frustrate a parent more than to say that you’ve
\ngot to buy more fruits and vegetables — but to still see the cost out
\nof kilter and see those goals out of reach.<\/p>\n

So these are just some of the things that we hope to do through this
\ninitiative. But what we know is that we have to be ambitious; that the
\napproach has to be ambitious. It can’t just be lockstep. It’s got to
\nbe something meaningful and powerful. <\/p>\n

And the other thing that I will say — and say again and again and again
\n— this won’t be easy. So let’s begin with that. (Laughter.) This
\nwill not be easy and it won’t happen overnight. And it won’t happen
\nsimply because the First Lady has made it her priority. That in and of
\nitself is not going to be enough. It’s going to take all of us. Thank
\nGod it’s not going to be solely up to me. (Laughter.) But it’s going
\nto take all of us — parents, schools, communities — working together
\nfor a very long time, over a sustained period of time. Over generations
\nof children will need to keep doing this.<\/p>\n

But I have every confidence, based on the level of energy that I’ve
\nseen, based on the willingness of people to deal with this issue across
\nparty lines, the willingness of the business community to be a part of
\nthe solution. Every sign that we’ve seen over the course of moving to
\nthis rollout has been nothing but positive.<\/p>\n

And of course parents are ready and willing. We all want to make the
\nbest choices for our children. We just need to know how. And if we
\ncontinue to do that, if we work with our physicians, if we work with our
\nSurgeon General, if we’ve got the government, the federal government,
\nworking together, businesses ready to make the sacrifices, then we can
\ntackle this problem. And we can do something really important for our
\nkids. We can hand them the future that we know they’re going to need to
\nbe successful.<\/p>\n

\nSo I am excited. And I look forward to working with all of you over the
\nnext years to make this not just a dream but to make this movement a
\nreality.<\/p>\n

So thank you all for the work that you’ve done so far. And we have a
\nlot more work to do. So thank you so much. (Applause.)<\/p>\n
