Check out the latest interviews with Tosca Reno.

At age 40 author Tosca Reno found herself miserable, overweight, stuck in an unhappy marriage and living an unfulfilled life. Her self-esteem was at an all-time low. She barely recognized the woman she had become. Determined to change her life for the better, she entered the doors of her local gym and never looked back. The minute she hopped on the treadmill she felt like she was taking control of her life again. Her confidence grew as she found the motivation to take care of herself – something she had lacked for years. After learning how to Eat Clean, Tosca’s life accelerated to new heights of health, vitality and confidence.

As she shed unwanted pounds, Tosca underwent a profound transformation. For the first time in her life she was happy to take center stage. She was confident, joyful and ready to take on the world. At age 42, with the support of her now husband, Robert Kennedy, she entered her first physique contest. Undaunted by the younger competitors, Tosca took fifth place in her class.

Tosca knew she had tapped into something wonderful and wanted to share it with the world. She realized that if she could make these small but pivotal changes in her life, anyone could. She began writing a column in Oxygen, a renowned fitness magazine. Tosca shared her personal story of transformation, her triumphs and her challenges, as well as her advice to others. Readers were enthralled with Tosca, flooding her with fan mail and questions. Recognizing that others were as hungry for change as she once was, Tosca decided to record her journey in a book entitled The Eat-Clean Diet®.

Coming up in September, Tosca will also be debuting The Eat-Clean Diet Presents: Just the Rules. This is an easy-to-use handbook perfect for stashing in your purse spelling out the basics of The Eat-Clean Diet®.

In 2009, Tosca released a beautiful hardcover cookbook, entitled Tosca Reno’s Eat Clean Cookbook, which was nominated for a Gourmand World Cookbook Award. The book is filled with 150 delicious and nutritious recipes each accompanied with a gorgeous full-page photograph. in 2010, Tosca became a New York Times® bestselling author with her book Your Best Body Now: Look and Feel Fabulous at Any Age the Eat-Clean Way.
