TV CHEF James Martin has revealed the ‘simple’ secret to his weight loss.
The 52-year-old has recently lost an impressive three stone.
James, who currently presents Saturday Morning with James Martin, has confessed that it’s down to cooking one dish in particular.
James recently The Birmingham Live: “Losing weight is a balance of everything.
“It’s getting off your arse and doing more and not eating less, but eating a variety of different things.
“Water is the key.
“As you get older, I realised I don’t need to go to the gym, I’m working all the time anyway.
“Water keeps your brain healthy and it keeps your skin healthy and it keeps you focused it’s crazy when you give up soft drinks how much more your brain feels alive, it’s very weird.”
He then confessed what ingredient he has been cooking to keep the weight off.
James added: “What could be simpler than pan-frying a little bit of salmon and serving it with some great new potatoes and seasonal veg?”
The telly favourite also revealed another factor behind why he wanted to shift some weight.
Mark confessed on the Spooning with Mark Wogan podcast: “It comes down to the fact that I race cars, or I still try and race a few cars and I actually struggle to get out of them now.
“Getting in them, you kind of fall in them, but then you’ve got to get out of them and it just doesn’t look very good.”
James has ditched the chocolate bars and his diet is now ’80 per cent made up of fish’.
It comes after James was forced to halt his ITV show last month.
The star reassured viewers after a ‘shotgun-like’ played out on his Saturday morning programme.
Fearing fans would be concerned that the noises were “shotgun” like, James quickly clarified that was not the case.
He said: “That is not a shotgun going by the way, we have got a crow scarer.
“The farmer has just planted some plants out there, we are going to get a lot of this during the day really.
“It’s to stop the pigeons going and wrecking his plants as well.”
Days before he issued a warning and snapped at a guest during awkward return of Saturday Morning.
James enjoyed a trip to France with his girlfriend over the summer.
