Alton Brown was on FoodTV about his diet
Back in January there was a discussion here about Alton Brown having
lost 50 lbs in 6 months on a diet. He was on a new Good Eats episode last week that focused on the diet. They were hinting at a new book he's coming out with about it. Maybe that explains why he looked so terrible on Iron Chef at the white house. He lost a drastic amount of weight in a short time so he could write the book. He looked a lot better in the new video, maybe because he put back on some weight after reaching the 50 lb benchmark. I'm sure you can find info about the diet at FoodTV. Some of the basics were he eliminated almost all refined carbs and starchy vegetables. He did eat pasta and whole grain rice once a week. He also only ate red meat once a week, used healthy oils, and had oily fish several times a week. He did eat fruit freely. At least that's what I remember about it. It was definitely a much reduced carb diet compared to what the typical person eats. |

I'll double check the original airing date. I have a Tivo too and only recorded the one episode and I don't know of any other. When I said it was last week, I may have been wrong. It was either late last week or earlier this week. Tivo is so cool. It blows away my cable company, Cablevision, PVR in terms of capability and ease of use. They use Scientific Atlanta's box and the PVR is a real piece of junk. Everyone should try a Tivo. |

As you can see, the group here isn't what it used to be. No kidding! I was checking in regularly until around the end of 2009...when I reformatted all my PC and installed Windows 7. After that, I have been slow to reload software. |
