inspiration to men everywhere with his success in shedding 35 pounds and
reducing his risk for heart disease and diabetes. Wondering who?

You weighed in: Should Obama avoid meat and junk food?
 Last week, I reported that one vegetarian advocacy group, is asking Obama to avoid eating meat and junk food in public,
where he's often photographed. The president, they reason, could use
his status to model healthy eating habits for the rest of America, and
there's no doubt we could use the push in the right direction! What do
you think? Dozens of people responded with a comment. Read on to find out what people are saying.

Spring salad dressings
Ah, spring! This is the time of year for farmers markets, fresh produce
and abundant healthy salads! Spruce up your favorite salad mix with
some homemade salad dressings. With a flavorful dressing and just a few
ingredients, you can turn some simple greens into a full meal. I always
like to add a bit of crunch with some vegetarian "bacon" bits or nuts.
