The Big Dog is looking Fit N' Trim
http://www.nydailynews.com/front/story/173565p-151251c.html

What's the skinny on Bill Clinton?
When he was President, back in the last century, Clinton was notorious for his gigantic appetites - whether for chocolate-chip cookies or other ill-advised indulgences - and he tended toward the chunky.

But these days - as with his recent appearance at a program for youth in the Bronx - Clinton looks as sleek and sporty as a Porsche convertible.

"I've been working out four times a week with a German," the former chief executive revealed recently to a gaggle of reporters, including the Daily News' very fit Derek Rose, during a chat at his Harlem office.

"I haven't been this weight since I was the governor of Arkansas," Clinton added, crediting the South Beach Diet. "What you do is you basically start off hard-core - high protein, no carbohydrates - then you go back to carbohydrates. I like it. It's the best thing ever."

3. German personal trainer
My guess for the reason he looks good is he now has the time to work out. Unlike the chimperor, who will vacation even while the U.S. is under terrorist threats, Clinton took his job responsibilities seriously.

6. As long as it's not Heidi Klum. We don't need more of that.
If he'd said "working out with Swede" I'd start keeping an eye out for Eleanor Mondale.

5. Want to say a word about the South Beach "diet "--
totally non-political. The eating plan in the "South Beach" book has helped people I know lose weight who've not been able to lose before, especially men. It's low-carb, but quite a bit different from Atkins. I would recommend trying South Beach to anyone who'd like to lose some weight -- and look fit and trim like Bill Clinton!

7. I never cared what he weighed
I just miss him! Sigh, that's when we had a real president. Not perfect, but smart, caring, curious about the world.
