Tom Brady weight loss, energy level linked to Gisele Bundchen strict vegetarian celebrity diet

Tom Brady attributes his career success with the New England Patriots to a weirdly restrictive diet. But his wife is the boot behind his health kick. Supermodel Gisele Bundchen follows a celebrity diet currently in vogue that combines the usual vegetarian dietary regime with the elimination of selected foods. Besides weight loss, she claims many health benefits. Ironically, the Super Bowl champion's diet excludes pretty much everything on the famous halftime appetizer menu.

Fans who would like to emulate the supercouple should check out what's on the menu.
