What better way to engage obese Bronxites in a healthier lifestyle than a show by one of our very own?

Mele Mel is launching a fitness show that will be produced by BronxNet and will be aired on local cable access networks in Brooklyn and Manhattan.  No word on if and when they will be aired in Queens or Staten Island but the Daily News reports that negotiations are underway in Queens.

Now if only they would do a show at PeaceLove Café on healthy eating?
