10k gone: Bill 'burger king' Clinton has no stomach for Chelsea's wedding
The former US president, renowned for his love of junk food, shed more than 10 kilograms after he was told by his daughter Chelsea to lose weight before her wedding in July. "I went on essentially a plant-based diet," Mr Clinton told CNN yesterday.
Bill Clinton with his daughter Chelsea this month ... she told him to slim down for her wedding. "I live on beans, legumes, vegetables, fruit. I drink a protein supplement every morning. No dairy. I drink almond milk mixed in with fruit and protein powder, so I get the protein in when I start the day out."
Mr Clinton, 64, said the diet changed his whole metabolism and he has gone back to what he weighed in high school.
He also hoped this "experiment" would help to clear his arteries after undergoing quadruple heart bypass surgery in 2004.
