Chaz Bono, son of Sonny and Cher, lost an impressive 60 pounds. He looks better now than when he was on Dancing with the Stars, which some celebs do for the rapid weight loss, publicity being a big perk. He’s not done losing the weight yet. People asked him how he did it. Via Eonline:
I’ve just changed the way I eat. Diets don’t work. You just have to change what you eat, and I have. […] really [avoids] grains and starches, so meats and vegetables and fruits are my diet. I make them all different ways to keep it interesting.
I still enjoy dancing. I still take classes.
Losing weight is HARD. You have to, like…do things. And then eat things that aren’t the things you would prefer to eat. And then you have to do…more things. Like, ugh. Who has the time and the commitment to do all of these things (aside from Gwyneth)? I think you can see his weight loss better in this candid photo. In the one up top he doesn’t quite know how to pose for the camera and find his best ~~angles~~.
And compare that photo to this one taken in 2010:
SO GOOD FOR YOU, CHAZ! I am inspired. I love seeing before/after photos. They motivate me to get off the couch and start exercising…later.
Good for Chaz! What a life he’s lived so far. I hope he finds strength and inspiration from this change of lifestyle. It can’t be easy to be Chaz.
I’m so happy for him! I was worried that he would get his life on track to be happy then have it ruined by medical problems caused by his physical condition.
he’s a good man!!! inside & out. right on, fantastic news.
That guy as incredible strength ! He really should be a inspirational speaker or something ! Go Chaz :) I hope his mom is very proud of him !
Yay Chaz!
