Vegetarian Star

Howard Stern’s longtime radio sidekick, Robin Quivers, adopted a strict vegan diet and lost 70 pounds in the past year. She is sporting a new body as well as a new boyfriend, New Jersey comedian Jim Florentine, who is over a decade younger than she is.

In an recent interview she explained her decisions for doing so. “It was my health,” she said. “I was not the type of person who ate 50 Big Macs. I wasn’t having a great time being fat. I was eating what most people consider a relatively healthy diet and not doing well.”

Quivers got started on The Martha’s Vineyard Diet Detox and after her cleansing process was complete, she began eating vegan.

She often drinks juices for breakfast and dinners might include grilled vegetables, sometimes with a small amount of pasta or risotto made with olive oil, instead of butter. She cites her new way of eating as giving her more energy and gets irritated at criticism from the medical community or others that might think the diet is too extreme.
