According to the New York Daily News, too many cheeseburgers and sweets have edged the otherwise healthy Barack Obama's cholesterol into the "borderline-high" range.

"He would be...the first to tell you that he has probably had a few more cheeseburgers and...more desserts in the last year than I've seen him eat prior to this," said [White House press secretary Robert] Gibbs, since Obama's days in the Senate.

The president was otherwise given a clean bill of health after a check-up Sunday.
