Al Roker on Setting Weight Loss Goals: ‘Every Day Is a Struggle’
15.04.2022 - 23:15 / usmagazine.com
Staying positive! Al Roker is measuring his weight loss success with one important benchmark — making sure his clothes fit right.
“I have no idea where I am. All I know is my clothes fit,” the weatherman, 67, exclusively told Us Weekly during the Broadcasting and Cable Hall Of Fame 30th Anniversary Gala in New York City on Thursday, April 14. “That’s kind of the benchmark for me.”
The 3rd hour of Today cohost underwent gastric bypass surgery in March 2002, losing a total of more than 100 pounds. Even 20 years later, Roker insists it’s difficult to maintain a healthy weight.
“Every day is a struggle, every day,” the Emmy-award winner explained to Us. “Anybody who struggles with their weight knows. Some days you’re up, some days you’re down, but if by the end of the week you’re OK or the same, great. As long as you’re working on it, all’s good.”
For Roker, it’s not about the number on the scale, but about making sure he remains strong.
“I don’t know if I have a goal. I just want to make sure I’m healthy,” he continued.
The TV personality previously opened up about his eating habits in his 2013 memoir Never Goin’ Back: Winning the Weight Loss Battle for Good. He explained it was trying to woo his now-wife, Deborah Roberts, that helped him realize how much food meant to him.
“My life was centered around food. I could never live with no food in my apartment — not even in New York, where you can get everything delivered in 30 minutes or less,” he said, revealing that Roberts, 61, only had “champagne, a jar of mustard [and] a slab of half-moldy cheese” in her apartment.
The NBC host said he would fill his then-girlfriend’s fridge with all the essentials to make it feel more like “home,” including milk, eggs, butter, coffee, oatmeal
