Doctors tell Barack Obama to quit smoking The American president has been trying to kick the habit for sometime, apart from the smoking he is in excellent health * Ewen MacAskill, Washington * guardian.co.uk, Monday 1 March 2010 01.29 GMT * Article history Barack Obama Barack Obama has had his first medical examination since becoming president. Photograph: Charles Dharapak/AP Barack Obama is still struggling to kick smoking, according to his first medical examination since becoming president. Obama is sensitive about his cigarette habit and tetchy with reporters who raise it. But after his 90-minute medical at the Navy hospital outside Washington yesterday morning, his doctors confirmed he had not yet managed to conquer the habit and suggested he "continue smoking cessation efforts". The doctors said the president used medication to try to ease the pangs, they described it as "nicotine replacement therapy, self-use". Obama promised Michelle when he embarked on his campaign to become president he would quit, at the time he said he was smoking about eight a day. He told reporters last year he had quit but still had an occasional cigarette, without specifying how many. His health was described as excellent and he does not have to return for another medical until 2012. Obama, who is 48, has 20-20 vision, weighs 179 llbs in his shoes and clothes, and requires little medication. Apart from the nicotine replacement, he uses a non-steroid anti-inflammatory medication associated with physical activity: he regularly plays basketball at the White House. The doctors also recommended "moderation of alcohol intake".

I just waiting for our favorite lefties to rip into Obama over being a drunk. You know, like they did to Bush? Dude, when the doc tells you you have to cut back, you've got a drinking problem.
Goldi-Lox: You're one dumb-fucking bitch.
here's the full recommendation: Not quite what you thought it said is it?
Being a Republican means you get to choose your own reality.
Barry's the cooolest POTUS ever, dude...MUD
"Devolve Power Outta the Federal Leviathan and Back to the States, Here, as I guess English is your second language, at the very bottom: The doctors also recommended "moderation of alcohol intake". Again, when the doctor tells you you're drinking too much, you have a problem.
Goldi-Lox: You're one dumb-fucking bitch.
Where did the Doctor state that he was drinking too much? Language is a very flexible ***thing*** with you folks, eh?

Absolutely. It's code for "what a fucking drunk."
Look. At. The. Last. Line. Geez. Read the article before responding.
Goldi-Lox: You're one dumb-fucking bitch.
Absolutely. It's code for "what a fucking drunk." The idiots on my local TV station reported on this story, saying what great shape Obama was in, and failed to mention the comment about his boozing it up. Go figure. I guess it was just a small oversight.
Goldi-Lox: You're one dumb-fucking bitch.
I did. The question remains unanswered. You do know the difference between recommending moderation and recommending moderating? That "words meany somethingy thing" again, eh?

Recommendations: Follow-up colorectal cancer screening is recommended in 5 years for routine colon cancer screening. Continue smoking cessation efforts, a daily exercise program, healthy diet, moderation in alcohol intake, periodic dental care, and remain up-to-date with recommended immunizations. Continue modified exercise regimen, and lower extremity muscle strengthening program, for occasional left patella-femoral pain secondary to chronic tendonitis. Recommend dietary modification to reduce LDL cholesterol below 130
