Cooking: Defy Aging— Eat the Foods You Love (Avery/Penguin) The Biggest Loser: The Weight Loss Program to Transform Your Body, Health, and Life (Rodale) and The Biggest Loser Complete Calorie Counter (Rodale). Ms. Forberg received her culinary education at the California Culinary Academy (CCA) in San Francisco. After graduating from their 16-month program, she embarked on a European apprenticeship, which culminated in a stint at the three-Michelin-star restaurant Au Crocodile in Strasbourg. Upon return to the United States, Ms. Forberg was chosen for the opening team of Postrio, Wolfgang Puck's first venture in northern California. Ms. Forberg's passionate interest in healthy cooking led to an exodus from restaurant kitchens and an entrée to some of the most prestigious households in America. During this period she held the coveted position of Private Chef for Lucasfilm, Ltd. in northern California. She went on to earn a nutrition degree and an RD (registered dietitian) credential from the University of California at Berkeley. As a former research dietitian at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, she had the opportunity to integrate her scientific background into recipe creation for a variety of dietary protocols. This distinctive skill set enabled her to extend her culinary expertise beyond celebrated restaurant kitchens into the creation of inspired recipes that are also healthful. She has developed a clear and concise recipe format, easily understood by novice students. She has also performed nutritional analysis on over 6,000 recipes. In 2005, her recipes in The New Mayo Clinic Cookbook (Oxmoor) won the prestigious James Beard award. Cheryl is the consulting dietitian to NBC's "The
Biggest Loser", where her role is to help overweight contestants
transform their bodies, health and ultimately, their lives. Her status
as a weight loss and antiaging nutrition expert gives her visibility
and credibility within the nutrition, scientific and lay communities
for ongoing media interviews. Her speaking and writing experience
present a recognized and respected platform to publicize the vital
role of nutrition in slowing the aging process and maintaining optimal
weight.
