How A Chef Stays Slim

Chef coats slim –

My son went to culinary school to become a chef. It sounds like a recipe for weight gain, but it hasn't been a problem for him. The daily 10 mile bike ride is what helps him stay looking and feeling good. He also seldom eats processed foods or junk food. He almost always eats freshly prepared foods, so even if he is eating a dessert he isn't eating a dessert full of preservatives or chemicals. He also drinks a lot of water. While he's working he keeps a big cup of water nearby and says it is normal for him to drink two to three quarts of water during his shift at the restaurant. He doesn't deny himself any food he wants. For those of us who are trying to lose excess weight and use excuses such as "It's too hard to lose weight because I'm around food all day either making a meal or giving a snack to my kids," that excuse sounds kind of lame when we hear about someone who cooks food all day and manages to stay healthy and fit. We use our busy lives as an excuse to not exercise and eat healthy. My son works 60-70 hours a week but he has found a way to incorporate exercise into his life and to make healthy eating a priority.
