“Hold the cheese , please!”
Nia Vardalos, star of the smash movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding and the upcoming film My Life in Ruins , dropped 40 pounds simply by repeating those four little words at every meal.
Nia attributes her skyrocketing “Wow!” factor to her dairy-free diet. She told People magazine, “I broke up with cheese. … [C]heese keeps calling me and trying to get me to meet at a cheap motel but I’m really committed to just staying single for awhile. ”
Drop dairy to shed flab and help cows ? It really can be that simple.
