Kate Middleton checked into King Edward VII hospital last week for acute morning sickness following the announcement of her pregnancy.

We heard the average gluttonous American will consume some 4,500 calories this Thanksgiving Day, according to the Calorie Control Council. However, that statistic may be a bit exaggerated—unless your idea of a holiday feast is about 16 slices of pepperoni pizza with large soda chaser, that is.
