Media Personality, Healthy Comfort Food Chef, Weight Loss Expert, and
New York Times Bestselling Author, Devin Alexander, is the Host of
"America's Chefs on Tour" which will be airing on National Public
Broadcasting stations premiering this winter. Devin's unique approach
to healthy cooking and her motivational personal story have landed her
appearances on more weight loss and fitness shows than any other food
expert or nutritionist in America. Having maintained her 70-pound
weight loss for over 16 years, she lives and eats her message: you
don't have to deprive yourself to be fit and healthy.
Devin has shared her secrets for unbelievably decadent yet healthy
foods as the host of "Healthy Decadence" on Discovery Health and Fit Tv
from 2007-2011 and through frequent appearances on The Today Show, Good
Morning America, The Biggest Loser, Dr. Oz, Dr. Phil, The Doctors, Dr.
Drew, The View, Celebrity Fit Club, Discovery Health's National Body
Challenge, FOX, CNN, HGTV, USA, Style Network and others as well as
through over 400 magazine features including Prevention, Women's
Health, Men's Health and Shape. She has served as Culinary Advisor to
Men's Fitness Magazine and Cooking Expert to Women's Health.
Devin is the author of eight cookbooks. Her first cookbook, "Fast Food
Fix" (Rodale, 2006) was featured as an editor's top pick in USA Today
and her follow-up "The Biggest Loser Cookbook" (Rodale, 2006), a
companion to the hit NBC show, spent months on The New York Times
Bestsellers List as did her "The Biggest Loser Family Cookbook"
(Rodale, November 2008). Devin's "The Most Decadent Diet Ever!"
(Broadway, 2008), revealed her secrets to living healthy without
sacrificing the foods we all love and "I Can't Believe It's Not
Fattening" (Broadway 2010), provides the answer for people who think
they are too busy to cook. It sold out on QVC. Devin recently released
"The Biggest Loser Dessert Cookbook" (Rodale, November 2010), "The
Biggest Loser Flavors of the World Cookbook" (Rodale, March 2011) and
"The Biggest Loser Quick & Easy Cookbook" (Rodale, 2011), which also
already spent weeks on The New York Times Bestsellers List.
After 9 years as the Owner and Executive Chef of Café Renee Catering,
Devin now travels the country lecturing and consulting for major U.S.
food and cookware companies. She's on the Advisory Board of the
American Culinary Federation's Chef Child Foundation, Larry King
Foundation's Go-To-Chef to speak on "Obesity in America," and she
recently returned from the White House as part of Michelle Obama's,
Chefs Move To Schools Program. Her food line, Devinly Delites(TM), is
in the works and later this year she plans to launch a major charity
initiative.
