| 47 | CleanVideoAdd This To Your Diet Today | Bikini Chef Susan Irby shares the food a woman should incorporate into her diet to maintain and lose weight. Transcript: Chef Susan Irby: For me, and I think for most women in general, really fish, even chicken is great – lean, healthy chicken breasts, turkey, lean turkey breast is great, but for me personally and in my experience, fish is really the best food that you can eat and my favorite food is salmon.It’s great for your skin. It’s low calorie. It has good fats and oils that I don’t know, whenever I eat salmon I just feel amazing and I feel like I look amazing and just feel better. But even other fish like tuna and halibut – those are all great flavorful fish to eat. But do that in combination with lean proteins like skinless, you want your chicken breast to be skinless. Boneless, skinless chicken breast, you can get them at any store and they are reasonably priced. So, incorporate that into your diet along with some fish and beef too, I mean some people swear off beef, but I believe in everything in moderation.

| 48 | CleanVideoLose Weight Faster By Eating These Foods | Bikini Chef Susan Irby recalls the foods most known to increase the metabolism. Transcript: Chef Susan Irby: High fiber foods, spicy foods get your metabolism going. I mean come on, think about it, if you eat something that’s really spicy you start to sweat and it doesn’t have to be so intensely spicy that you sweat when you do it, but spicy foods naturally give an almost instant boost to your metabolism, and you want those energy boost because it helps you burn off fat, calories and also having a nice boost to your metabolism helps your body break down proteins. So even when you are eating like the leaner healthy foods, like the grilled chicken breast or the fish, then those metabolism boosting and so high fiber foods broccoli, spinach, they are antioxidant rich. Anything like that helps processed foods through your system is going to help boost your metabolism, which is what we like.

| 49 | CleanVideoTaste Buds Like Healthy Food | Bikini Chef Susan Irby describes how taste buds fluctuate and shares tips to choosing healthy menu options at restaurants. Transcript: Chef Susan Irby: One thing that happens you will find when you start eating healthier and lighter dishes or maybe going for that non-fat yogurt, non-fat mayonnaise and getting the flavors in with the herbs and everything, you are going to actually wake up your taste buds because your taste buds are being bogged down with too much fat and I mean, think about it. Let’s say that you have, I mean I’m all for hamburgers every now and then but let’s say that you have this full-fat fast food burger because you are working; you are busy; you are on the go and it’s quick to just pull in there, right?No. You take a bite at that; you eat the whole thing, maybe it comes with some fries. You feel like you have led in your stomach and you feel bogged down – don’t do that. Even run into like a supermarket. Now a days they have these daily sandwiches ready to go. Get some lean turkey and take the bread off if you want. Turn it into like a lettuce leaf wrap, you know, I love doing that and once you start eating lighter, leaner foods you’ll find that your body doesn’t want those fattening foods anymore and then when you do eat them on the rare occasion, honestly for me, they make me sick in a way, you know? It’s like not so totally sick, but I don’t feel good and yeah, so your body over … and not even over a long period of time, in a pretty short period of time. Let’s say you start eating more healthy for a month, you are already… the next time you go for like that full fat food, lots of cheese and full fat cheeses or creamy dressings, you know what, try eating healthy for a while and then go for a regular full fat fettuccine alfredo. You won’t like it. Yeah, you won’t be able to eat it or it just won’t taste it and it won’t feel good in your stomach. Women, men, everybody – we are all on the go; we are working; we are busy and you go out to, you have either a client lunch or a client meeting and they are at restaurants. So ways that you can shave off calories is look for the leaner items. More restaurants now have those on their menus but even so, you hear it a lot but a lot of people don’t always do it. So either order the salad dressing on the side, that’s always a good one, or if it’s, let’s say it’s a Caesar salad, definitely order the salad dressing on the side because a lot of times it’s just coated with the dressing and you don’t need that much dressing. Let’s say it’s a creamy dressing – just ask for something else. If it comes tossed in with it then order something else. You know what’s even better than that just don’t even go for the traditional salad. Order some grilled vegetables. Grilled vegetables in most restaurants will help you out now-a-days. They are used to people coming in and asking for special things or if there is a certain dish on the menu that sounds appetizing to you, ask for the sauce on the side and ask if the vegetables can be grilled. I personally love steamed vegetables, but if you are not used to eating them all the time they may be kind of lacking in flavor for you so go for grilled vegetables. Grilling adds a ton of flavor but no extra calories. So those are easy tips that you can do at your meetings or out to lunch with friends or family and also, don’t let people pressure you into eating the fattening foods or let’s say, they know that you are trying to get healthy, even our best friends and family, they say they want the best for you but they often have other intentions when you are out together because they don’t want to feel bad for eating the fattening foods that they want to eat. So they want you to join in with them. You are going to have to exercise some discipline. Just say, “No, these are my choices, you know, and this tastes good,” and maybe get them on a bandwagon, you know, “Here, | 6/17/11 | Free | View In iTunes |
| 50 | CleanVideoKindly Request Healthy Menu Substitutions | Bikini Chef Susan Irby shares easy recipe alterations that will make your restaurant experience healthier. Transcript: Chef Susan Irby: If I have a friend who is intimidated about making changes to the menu items at a restaurant, you know what, from a chef’s perspective, okay contrary to a lot of the movies that you see where the chef goes ballistic if you make a change, a lot of chefs are honored actually to be able to present something to you that’s new and different and want you to love it. So, it may not be true of all chefs and maybe you don’t want to ask for something completely off the menu if it’s 12:30 noon lunch and there is a line waiting out the door. That might not be the best time, but you can still ask for modifications on a menu. So let’s say that you go to a restaurant and they have breaded chicken, panko-crusted chicken breast with a red pepper remoulade. Most remoulades at a restaurant is going to be made with high fat mayonnaise or if it’s made from scratch it would be made with eggs and oil and usually some kind of cream mayonnaise and then the breading, the panko-crusted chicken. So a lot of times they will bake that, but a lot of times they will also lightly fry it. So what you can do is instead of changing the whole menu item just say, “Can I have just that chicken breast simply grilled,” because they’ve got chicken in the kitchen, know that. They have these ingredients already in the kitchen. Even if they have some already breaded and pre-prepared chances are they have some that aren’t already breaded. So order it grilled and order the sauce on the side. Say, “Can I please have my remoulade on the side”, and let’s say that it comes with cream spinach. Substitute that out for something else – grilled vegetables. Chefs in any decent restaurant and at all levels, we are talking average restaurants to high-end restaurants, are going to have fresh vegetables in the kitchen now a days. It’s almost absolutely a requirement. It’s no problem for them to dice up and grill up or sauté some vegetables for you. So don’t be intimidated by that. Let them know. You don’t have to be rude about it. Be nice, say, “You know, I really, I just want to strive to eat more healthy,” or, “You know, this sounds delicious and I am sure it’s great, but I’d really prefer it; do you think they can grill it for me?” And just ask in a nice way. They are happy to do it. Nine times out of ten, in fact I would say ten times out of ten. About Chef Susan Irby: With her mother’s teachings in her heart, Susan’s passion for cooking took hold.
