Welcoming Cheesefry Nation

It's common knowledge that the diet of news folk is more John Daly than, say, Lance Armstrong. Fast-food burgers, eating on the run, drinking too much...you know the drill. Heck, in my earlier reporting life, I lived off the sandwiches, honey buns and so-called fruit pies in the vending machines across the hall from the newsroom. Hey, make fun all you want, in those days we believed Wonder Bread helped build strong bodies 12 ways.

Which brings me to Cheesefry Nation, our latest blog. Proud eaters Joe Killian and Amanda Lehnert write about their efforts to clean up their act.

Joe writes: So Amanda and I are doing something about it -- taking the Get Healthy Guilford Challenge and launching a blog to chart our progress. In our typical fat, lazy fashion we're doing it a week late -- but I'm still determined to lose ten pounds in ten weeks. And, hopefully, a few inches off my waist. Those pants aren't getting any bigger.

Knowing the two of them, it'll be fun to watch.
