Gordon Ramsay talks 50-pound weight loss: 'I looked like a sack of sh*t'

Gordon Ramsay is as renowned for his exquisite cooking as he is for his explosive tirades and over-the-top insults on shows like Hell's Kitchen and Kitchen Nightmares. But despite his hardened personality when it comes to directing restaurant kitchens, the 51-year-old had let his body go soft—before deciding to make a huge lifestyle change and train for an Ironman with triathlete and trainer Will Usher.

“I started focusing on getting super-fit five or six years ago when my life got super-busy," Ramsay told The Daily Mail. "You get consumed by the work. You get sucked up...All of a sudden your ‘me time’ is zero. There was no breathing space, no down time, no time to even think straight. It all started hitting me hard. I didn’t panic, but my head was not in the game."

He revealed that one of the catalysts in his decision to get fit was his wife, Tana, who has always been fit.

Sticking to a diet can seem restricting, boring, bland—but if you broaden your hunger horizons, there are actually a ton of foods ripe to help you lose those last few lbs.

What qualifies as a weight-loss food?

You want items that have at least two of three features: high fiber content to help keep you full longer and aid in digestion, high protein content to keep you full and build muscle, and/or high micronutrient content to help reduce inflammation, repair workout damage, and keep you energized.

We talked to 11 nutritionists and compiled a list of the top 100 foods you should be noshing on to lose weight without getting bored.

The disturbing link between a high-carb diet and Alzheimer’s disease

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

The epidemic of Alzheimer’s disease is increasingly linked to a Western-style diet rich in refined carbs. Potentially, this means that one could prevent the disease by switching to a diet low in carbs. Here’s another new study that shows the tight correlation between high blood sugar levels and early symptoms of dementia: A longitudinal study, published Thursday in the journal Diabetologia, followed 5,189 people over 10 years and found that people with high blood sugar had a faster rate of cognitive decline than those with normal blood sugar — whether or not their blood-sugar level technically made them diabetic. In other words, the higher the blood sugar, the faster the cognitive decline.

Here’s some good low-carb related news. The Swedish Dietary Science Foundation aims to do high-quality research on how to treat health problems using positive dietary changes. They’re very positive to the potential of low-carb diets and they’ve now completed funding for two studies involving low carb. The first study will investigate the potential of a low-carb diet to improve IBS, and has already started. The second study will be the largest study ever to attempt to stabilize blood glucose in people with type 1 diabetes using a dietary change (i.e. fewer carbs). 2017 has been a great year for the foundation, as explained in the post below: The Dietary Science Foundation: 2017: another record year for the Dietary Science Foundation Full disclosure: I’m on the board of directors of the Dietary Science Foundation, though I’m unpaid and have no financial interests in the not-for-profit foundation.

Rose McNulty

Valentine's Day gets an unfortunate rap as the most over-the-top romantic holiday of the year—everyone's lovey-dovey, enough chocolate changes hands to keep Willy Wonka in business indefinitely, and social media is flooded with the often ridiculous gifts everyone receives from their significant others.

But if the woman in your life would rather down pre-workout supps than copious amounts of chocolate, she may not appreciate you sabotaging her diet or wasting your money on a gigantic stuffed animal. Instead, maybe knock out a couples' workout and gift her something she'll actually use long-term: fitness gear.

How to burn fat

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

All gym rats have the same primary goals: Build muscle and burn fat. But melting away that pudgy layer to reveal the six pack you’ve worked so hard for requires more than logging time on a cardio machine—a helluva lot more, in fact.

The prevailing formula for a long time on how much fat you’re going to burn was calories in minus calories out, based on your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and exercise efforts, explains strength and performance specialist Joel Seedman, Ph.D., owner of Advanced Human Performance in Atlanta. But with all the different biochemical reactions in the body, hormonal response, and endocrine function, there are an infinite number of factors that can affect how your body is storing and breaking down calories.

Optimizing what you’re eating, how you’re working out, and every choice of your lifestyle can help boost your metabolism and control your hormones in a way that’ll set fire to fat. Here’s how.

What's the healthiest way to go out drinking?

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

I’m a typically healthy guy who often hits the gym, but I’ll be frank: I like drinking with my friends on the weekends and occasionally overdo it. What’s the “healthiest” way to have a big night out and minimize the damage? Don’t lecture me.—Chad J., San Francisco, CA

According to Jim White, R.D., spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, “Liquor is healthiest if served ‘alone,’”—that is, without sugary sodas or juices. Which liquors? “The clearer types, which go easier on the body and are less caloric,” he says. So think vodka and gin.

Then there are the other, more obvious actions that can help: Eating good food to avoid nutrient depletion, drinking tons of water, and boozing only on a full stomach and after consuming fats and carbs.

7 superfood swaps every man should know

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Between training hard in the gym, busting your ass at work, and everything else the daily grind throws at you, it’s all too easy to fall into a meal-planning rut. We repeatedly hear the same dietary suggestions: grilled chicken, kale, spinach, almonds, Greek yogurt. And while we know how good those foods are, they can get old after a while.

“Most people tend to eat the same 200 foods over and over throughout their lifespan,” says Natalie Stephens, lead dietitian at the Ohio State University’s Wexner Medical Center. And that can often be the case for fit guys, who are extra choosy about their meals.

Is keto the worst diet in the world?

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Are keto and other low-carb diets the worst diets in the world? Should we all follow very conventional diets full of whole grains and other carbs? That’s what you may believe, after reading the U.S. News & World Report diet rankings, that were recently released. There’s just one tiny problem. They base their rankings on the opinions of certain selected experts, who have been saying basically the exact same thing for decades. Decades that have seen the worst obesity and type 2 diabetes epidemics in the history of the world. Also, unfortunately, science has (so far) failed to prove the benefit of this advice. Something is definitely rotten in the state of Denmark. And journalists and nutrition experts Gary Taubes and Nina Teicholz know what it is.

The powerhouses of the cell and human diseases

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

To understand a disease properly, you need to focus on finding the right level. This is a forest for the trees’ problem. Think about Google Maps. If you zoom in too closely, you may miss what you are looking for. If you look at a map of your neighborhood, you can’t see where Greenland is. Similarly, if you zoom out too far, the same problem exists. Suppose I am looking for my house, but I look at a map of the world. Good idea. But where’s my city? Where is my street? Where is my house? It’s impossible to tell, because we are not looking at the right scale or level. The same problem exists in medicine, as human diseases occur at different levels. For example, if we are examining a gun shot wound and zoom in too closely to look at the genetic makeup of the victim, we will miss the sucking chest wound that is obviously killing our patient. By the same token, if we are dealing with a genetic disease such as Fabry’s disease, looking at the chest wall will not give us much...

  The amazing actress Halle Berry has previously discussed how she’s been eating a keto diet for years to control her diabetes. Yesterday, she shared some more thoughts about it on her Instagram (with 2.4 million followers), including a story with two links to explain keto for people who wanted to try it for themselves. Her two links are to our keto guide, and our get started challenge. Thanks, Halle Berry! I hope many of your followers will find our site helpful. By the way, I totally agree that for long-term success, keto should be thought of as a lifestyle change and not a temporary diet. Ironically the Greek origin of the word “diet” means “way of life”.

Dr. Bourdua-Roy: Fed up with dieting? Try keto

If you’ve failed attempt after attempt at losing weight, it is easy to start feeling helpless. But it is not your fault – it simply means that you have used the wrong method, says Dr. Èvelyne Bourdua-Roy. You might want to try something that works with your body’s physiology and is supported by science instead – like a keto diet. If you don’t like what you eat, if you don’t feel good, and if you don’t see real results, you won’t stick to it. And you shouldn’t. But it is not your failure. It’s the diet’s failure.

TIME: Juice is not a health food

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

You’re not doing your health or weight a favor by drinking juice, a new article in TIME magazine concludes. It’s a beverage packed with sugar, and if you were to strip it of its vitamins, it’s comparable to a can of Coke. Most produce naturally contains sugar, and fruit typically packs more than vegetables. Without fiber in the mix, juice is essentially just the natural sugars and water found in its ingredients, says Scott Kahan, the director of the National Center for Weight and Wellness in Washington, D.C. Though natural sugar may seem harmless, your body does little to distinguish between the sugars in an apple versus those in a piece of candy, Kahan says.

New study: Can a keto diet result in birth defects?

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Can a keto low-carb diet result in birth defects? Well, that’s what you may think, reading this article from the Daily Mail today, based on a new observational study: Daily Mail: Low carb diets like Atkins, Paleo or Keto linked to risk of birth defects including spina bifida, study claims The argument is that lower carb diets can lead to a lower intake of folic acid, if people eat less bread. White bread normally has close to zero vitamins and minerals, which is why it’s fortified with some added vitamins, like folic acid. A new observational study found that pregnant women who reported eating few carbs also ate less folic acid (likely for this reason) and their babies had a borderline significant 30% increase in the risk of some birth defects, like spina bifada, that may be caused by a lack of folic acid: Birth Defects Research: Low carbohydrate diets may increase risk of neural tube defects Weaknesses There are plenty of weaknesses with the study, primarily that it’s...

Is your insulin resistance cured? How does apple cider vinegar help with blood-sugar issues? And what are the good and bad effects of intermittent fasting? It’s time for this week’s Q&A about intermittent fasting and low carb with Dr. Jason Fung: Is my insulin resistance cured? I was wondering how you know when someone has become insulin sensitive again? I have been resistant for many years and borderline type 2 diabetic until embarking on keto with intermittent fasting. I did a test today where I deliberately ate outside keto and got 9.5 mmol/L (171 mg/dl) 2 hours later – tested a further hour later and was back to 6.2 mmol/L (112 mg/dl). Is that a sign I might finally be resenzitised to insulin? Thanks, Jen It is definitely possible. Insulin resistance is a reversible condition, as is type 2 diabetes. However, it develops over many decades and can often take a long term to reverse as well. Lab tests for insulin resistance include Fasting insulin, HOMA (comparing...

6 gluten-filled foods that are good for you

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Tiffany Gagnon Today

All it took was one major study that showed that gluten intolerance was, in fact, a real issue for the entire world (it seems like it, doesn't it?) to go on a gluten-free diet.

Peter Gibson, a professor of gastroenterology at Monash University and director of the GI unit at Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia, conducted that study in 2011, and has since revisited his findings with a more aggressive and controlled approach. The second time around, Gibson found the opposite of his initial study: Subjects reported gastrointestinal distress without any clear physical cause. These findings show that gluten was not the root of the problem, but that gluten intolerance or gluten sensitivity might actually be psychological.

Many registered dietitians like Toby Amidor, M.S., R.D., Kashi nutrition partner and author of The Greek Yogurt Kitchen, will caution against self-diagnosis when it comes to gluten intolerance. Cutting out gluten means you're

The 10 best post-workout foods for morning exercise

After you trash your muscles in a grueling strength-training or endurance workout, you need quality protein to minimize muscle breakdown and stimulate muscle growth, as well as carbs to refuel energy stores, says Jordan Mazur, R.D., coordinator of nutrition and team dietitian for the San Francisco 49ers.

"Traditionally we've heard there's a post-workout 'anabolic window' in which you must consume food or protein powder within—and if you miss that window, you lose your gains," Mazur says. "But that’s not necessarily true. Recent research suggests as long as you meet your daily protein requirements, spread throughout the day, you can maximize muscle.

Same goes for carbs. You want to eat a normal amount of carbs throughout the day to reload your glycogen stores by the time you hit your next workout.

I took a step towards my car as if to leave. “Oh, ok!” As I handed her one paper dollar and three quarters, I looked in her eyes to see if she was sincere. We had discussed the flaws of the depression era hand pressed goblet and how she couldn’t remember where it came from, but it might have been her Aunt’s. She didn’t seem to know what it was worth, but had priced it at $3.00. She explained that her family was moving, and she just needed to get rid of the “stuff”. I was ringing my husband’s cell phone before I backed out of her driveway. “I went to that yard sale!” I said. He groaned just a little.

Is it possible to lose weight without starvation? FREE Download: Ketogenic Diet Book » KetoVIP.

Now that you're done with the holidays, it's time to get on track. Jumping right into it, in weeks 1-4 you're going to use all the extra calories you've consumed to build some muscle. Coming into this program in a calorie surplus will serve as an advantage as the first weeks of the program focus on strength- and mass-building. Believe it or not, you will still consume a decent amount of carbohydrates to recover from the day-to-day assault on your body, especially from Monday through Thursday, which are both heavily loaded, lower-body days.

Below is a sample diet; you'll eat approximately 2,500-2,800 calories if you have a 170-180lb target.

Transitioning into Weeks 5 and 6 you should carry a few more pounds of solid mass, and it's time to begin the process of stripping the fat off to reveal all the hard work you've done over the past month.
