In a recent interview with Radio Times (via Express.co.uk), Oliver revealed that a single change to his dietary habits was the catalyst for the bulk of his weight loss: Reducing how much meat he eats.

"I pushed meat down, pushed veggie up, got more sleep and more movement," he explained. Oliver added that he wasn't depriving himself or sticking to tiny portions to shed the pounds.

"I lost 12 kilos quite quickly and I didn't do it through not eating. I ate a lot, more than I was used to," he explained.

Not only did Oliver increase the proportion of vegetables in his diet, but he also tried some healthy new greens on for size.

"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," he explained.

It wasn't just reducing his meat intake and increasing his veggies that helped Oliver shed the pounds, however: the star also began snacking on nuts.

"They make you half as likely to have a heart attack. Feed them to your kids as well," suggested the dad of five.

While Oliver didn't cut out drinking entirely to shed the weight, he admitted to taking a more moderate approach toward imbibing.

"I'm not telling you what to do, but my rhythm now is only to drink at the weekend," he explained.
