WHITE HOUSE WEIGHT WATCHERS DEALING WITH HEFTY ISSUES

WASHINGTON, D.C. (Wireless Flash) – When members of the White House staff are dealing with weighty issues, they often turn to Meg Clontz. She isn’t a cabinet official – she runs a Weight Watchers group in the White House to help the Oval Office staff keep the pounds off in between summit conferences. White House counselor Karen Hughes asked Clontz to start the weight loss group to tackle hefty issues such as how much pizza to eat during Middle East peace negotiations. So far, the White House Weight Watchers meetings are popular but Clontz says she doesn’t know if anyone has missed a meeting for reasons of national security because, “They don’t tell me that sort of information.”
