‘oy Big Fat Greek Wedding’ actress Nia Vardalos has lost 18kg through diet, exercise and making some hard sacrifices. “I broke up with cheese,” she explains. “It’s like cheese keeps calling me and trying to get me to meet it at a cheap motel, but I’m committed to just staying single for a while.” Nia adds that she did “like 50 other things” to lose the weight but removing cheese from her diet “was the thing that changed my life”.
