Jamie Oliver weight loss: Chef loses two stone by cutting this one thing from diet – Express

Jamie Oliver returns to British television screens tonight with Jamie and Jimmy's Friday Night Feast on Channel 4, where Jamie and co-host Jimmy Doherty tackle a number of celebrity favourite dishes, including a visit to where Star Trek actor, Patrick Stewart fell in love with Mexican food 30 years ago.

As someone who knows a great deal about fine food, Jamie found that over the years, he started to pile on the pounds and to tackle this he revealed he cut out one thing from his diet to lose two stone.

The 44-year-old chef managed to trim down by cutting out one particular type of food from his diet.

The dad of five revealed he swapped regular meat-based meals for vegetarian alternative dishes.

Speaking to Radio Times, Jamie said: I pushed meat down, pushed veggie up, got more sleep and more movement.

First, he traded meat for nuts to meet his fat and protein intake.

They make you half as likely to have a heart attack. Feed them to your kids as well, he told Radio Times.

Jamie has encouraged people to eat more plant-based meals, as according to him there are multiple health benefits.

The chef released a new cookbook, Veg, recently which is dedicated to making meat-free meals that even the most devout steak lovers will enjoy.

Jamie also hosts a cooking show, Meat-Free Meals on Channel 4.

But meat wasnt the only thing Jamie cut out, as he steered clear of alcohol at key times too.

He explained: Your average Brit drinks booze. Im not telling you what to do, but my rhythm now is only to drink at the weekend.

Its about a consciousness and knowing youre doing something and being more mindful.

The Naked Chef found that despite cutting food out, he ate more during his new regime than he did previously.

I lost 12 kilos quite quickly and I didnt do it through not eating," he explained.

Jamie turned to seaweed to help speed up his weight loss. Seaweed is used to help weight loss because it is low in calories and high in fibre, making it filling.

It also contains fucoxanthin, which is thought to contribute to increased metabolism.

Speaking to MailOnline, Jamie said: I thought seaweed was hippy, globetrotting stuff but our ancestors ate seaweed.

It has got a load of iodine and is the most nutritious vegetable in the world."

Jamie took the decision to slim down after realising how unhealthy his life had become.

During an appearance on Loose Women in 2015, he said: I got toward my 40th birthday and I realised I hadnt spent much time looking after myself.

I went back to school and started studying nutrition, started travelling to parts of the world to where people live the longest lives and started looking at their lifestyles. That was the journey and its been amazing.

Jamie is not the only chef to slim down after years of packing on the pounds.

Gordon Ramsay lost an impressive four stone with one simple trick.

The chef caught attention after his huge 3st 8lb weight loss, just six pounds away from a four stone weight loss. What did he do to shape up?

Although many people may choose to cut back on how much they eat when trying to lose weight, Gordon did the opposite.

Opening up about his weight loss in the past, he explained he started eating more meals in a bid to get in shape.
