Vegetarian Star

Jennifer Widerstrom from NBC’s Biggest Loser is teaching fitness by practicing what she preaches.

A former American Gladiators star, she’s known for her ripped physique and athletic skills. But she’s recently experienced an enlightenment that’s made her think as much about what she’s lifting with her fork as what she’s lifting on the barbell.

“I try to eat more green stuff now. I’d be really good and then be really bad. Now I’m more consistent. Like for lunch today, I’m going to get a vegetarian wrap with lettuce, where before I would have gotten a fried chicken sandwich and fries … because that’s the way I feel today,” she says.

Jackson Galaxy, host of the Animal Planet series My Cat from Hell, married Minoo Rahbar in a ceremony at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary.

The couple’s dog Mooshka served as the ring bearer at the nation’s largest no-kill shelter located in Kanab, Utah.

Just hope if there are any 4-legged guests present, they’re a little more welcoming than the combative cats you meet on a regular basis.

One of Carla Hall‘s favorite foods is peas.

The co-host of The Chew has a bit of advice when cooking with them.

Buy and use them fresh!

“Why waste my time thawing frozen peas?” Hall said in Deleware Online.

She must know what she’s talking about because her Last Supper Tarragon Peas are so good, legendary chef Jacques Pepin claims he could “die happy” after eating them.

Hey, Jacques, that “Last Supper” thing is just a joke.
