Rubben Studdard’s Weight Loss on Vegan Diet

We keep hearing of more and more celebrities going either vegetarian or completely vegan. Stars like actress Alicia Silverstone, actor Chris Noth and even The Biggest Loser trainer Bob Harper have moved to greener pastures. Now American Idol winner Rubben Studdard has joined the ranks of the green eaters, and he’s lost 100 pounds in the process!

Rubben appeared on The Wendy Williams Show recently and explained how he first started small by going vegetarian 18 months ago and then going full vegan 12 months later. Although he’s never really had a problem with the way he looked or felt, when he turned 28 the Big Teddy Bear as he’s affectionately known decided that he wanted to change his look completely.

For Wendy’s audience, Rubben explained what vegan cooking and a vegan diet is, as well as how he learned to cook vegan meals because he didn’t want to make himself crazy depriving himself and eating the same old boring meals. The soul singer has even found a few great vegan soul food restaurants in the South. He even bragged about his vegan mac and cheese and greens recipes.

Rubben also works out three days a week with a personal trainer for about 90 minutes.
