All-Star Workout - Also on Feb. 28, the first lady got down with Serena Williams, U.S. Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas and other sports greats for an afternoon workout with students at a Let's Move event in Chicago. According to the Let's Move campaign, nearly 30 percent of children in America are overweight or obese, with the number spiking to 40 percent in African-American and Latino communities.

Over the past three years, Walmart, Walgreens and several regional grocery stores have pledged to build or expand 1,500 stores in communities with limited or no access to healthy food. (Photo: Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
