New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie agrees he is "more than a little" overweight -- but says he is fit enough to be in the White House.

The Republican governor was asked about his weight problem during an interview with Barbara Walters for her "10 Most Fascinating People" special Wednesday night on ABC. Walters told the governor some people say he is too heavy to be a future president.

"That's ridiculous," Christie responded. He said worries that his weight would hamper his job performance were unfounded.

"I've done this job pretty well, and I think people watched me for the last number of weeks and Hurricane Sandy doing 18-hour days and getting right back up the next day and still being just as effective in the job," he said. "So I don't really think that would be a problem."

If he's thinking about making a bid for the White House in 2016, he isn't saying. "I don't know what I'll feel like in 2016," he said. -- AP
