We Really Need To Help Michael Moore.






Seriously, how big is too big? Who is going to kick his ass into gear to finally start working out or dieting?

2. It isn't our place to tell other folks how fat they can be.
Seriously, it's personal choice for most.

3. True, but we don't want him to die!
I'm surprised he hasn't taken action on this matter by now. He's got the money to hire a personal chef and trainer. He obviously believes a person should have a strong and healthy mind - surely he understands that a strong and healthy body is important, too.

I am smoking now, so I have to get off my soap box!

8. When someone gets this big this fast
it's cause for concern. I noticed he was gaining weight in September. Could it be stress?

MM, we want you to be healthy and happy! Please take care of yourself.

4. He looked much thinner when F-9/11 was released

I think he's reacting just like many of us.. I'm smoking much more lately. I know it's bad for me, but I can't help it. Nerves.

I think this pic is from a year ago..

5. I'm sure you mentioning it to him would help
Afterall, hes probably not even aware he is overweight, right? How helpful of you!

6. I think he knows.
I humbly suggest you lay off. No one's business but his own.

7. I doubt he has much time now to work on his health
He pushes himself so hard and travels so much, I can't see him taking time to plan out a workout schedule or careful diet plan right now. Fast food is usually not very healthful and extensive travel necessitates a lot of sitting and interrupted sleep schedules.

It's not our place to tell him to diet, nor do I believe it would have any positive effect if we tried to do so. He has a family and other people who care for him who are doubtless already encouraging him to take better care of his health, and of course he knows it for himself. Right now his priorities appear to be elsewhere.

10. It's gotta be the stress
I don't care what he looks like- I just want him to keep fighting for our causes for many years to come.

11. I love his Karma
his weight is his concern. But I can certainly sympathize. I've been on a diet and lost 36 lbs... would like to lose that much more and it's tough!!!!!!
