Rachel Ray Weight Loss - Celebrity chef and bubbly TV show host Rachael Ray is not one to shy away from personal questions. And the secrets to her weight loss are no exception. Rachael has always been cute and curvy. But now she's wearing hot outfits that are 2-3 sizes smaller and looking better than ever at the age of 41. How did she do it? (Especially when she cooks and tastes crazy-good food every day of the week…)
"I started running 3 1/2 miles every morning after throat surgery to remove a cyst. The gym used to be my adversary. Now I look forward to it every day," said Ray. According to PEOPLE, Ray spends about 30 minutes a day running, then heads to the gym for 45-60 minutes of elliptical training before descending on a circuit of machines. She says she looks forward to the workout every morning except Sunday. Ray claims she now feels healthier and sexier, thinks clearer and has more energy. Did she need any more energy?
Ray also says she doesn't know exactly how many pounds she's lost. "Who's counting? I haven't stepped on a scale since I was 12!" She seemingly lost weight on a non-diet that consisted of 90 minutes of daily exercise. Hey, whatever works! Most people (who don't have 5 jobs like Rachael Ray does,) don't have time for an hour+ of exercise in their busy lives. But her weight loss goes to show just how important incorporating a workout routine is.
The Food Network chef went to Washington this past May to help lobby Congress on the Child Nutrition Bill. At hand is the issue of providing healthier school lunches across the U.S. to prevent childhood obesity. Rachael has already dedicated lots of time/effort to this cause through her own non-profit organization, Yum-O!, empowering children and their families to develop healthy relationships with food and cooking. Ray drove home the point that we can invest now and provide our children with healthy nutritious food and education or pay a whole lot more in the years to come. Isn't that the truth? Way to go, Rachael Ray.
Below is an excerpt of an article from Peoples Magazine regarding Rachel Ray Weight Loss -
No wonder Rachael Ray looks so fantastic and fit. The syndicated TV host is several sizes smaller and brimming with energy.
"I started running 3½ miles every morning after throat surgery to remove a cyst last year," Ray, sipping on a beer, tells PEOPLE at the Amstel Light Burger Bash she hosted Thursday during the South Beach Wine & Food Festival at the Ritz-Carlton. "The gym used to be my adversary. But that has all changed. Now, I look forward to it every morning."
Never one to rise early, Ray, 41, looking hot in jeans and sexy sandals, is ready to rip at 5:50 a.m., and even earlier if she has a TV appearance before her own New York-based talk show.
She spends about 30 minutes running, then heads for the gym for 45-60 more minutes of elliptical training before choosing from a circuit of machines.
"I look forward to this workout every morning but Sunday," says Ray, who is using the David Barton gym while in South Beach with her lawyer-musician husband John Cusimano. "I listen to my iPod and discovered I think much clearer now."
Smaller Clothes
Ray also noticed that her body has changed and she wears clothes several sizes smaller. "Since I never get on a scale, I have no idea how much weight I’ve lost!" she says with a laugh.
Busy seven days a week, Ray says her show and magazine are healthy and thriving because she offers suggestions that "normal people" can relate to in a challenging economy. And she is maternally satisfied with her dog Isaboo. Having children is not in the cards.
"There are no kids on the horizon for John and me," she tells PEOPLE. "I do 280 episodes of TV a year, write 15 recipes for the magazine [Every Day with Rachael Ray], and publish an annual book. With all of that, we try to get one weekend a month with Isaboo at our home in the Adirondacks to relax and recharge. It would be selfish of me to bring children into the world."
Instead, Ray is active in her 3-year-old charity Yum-o, an organization that empowers kids and their families to engage healthy relationships with food and cooking.
"Between my charity and my staff members kids and dogs, who come to work with them, I get all the fulfillment I need!"
