I haven’t spoken much about my … sweat shop activities.
Not on my shows. Not to many people.
I am afraid to fail, and if I talk about it too much, espcially on my show, and if I do fail, it would be failure x500.
Yes, I have started exercising on January 11th. Since that day, I have been going to the sweat shop three times a week. It was easy at first. I was even getting up at 5:30am to go the SS (sweat shop = gym). Then I have been going with Bruce at night. There were some very rough nights where I just didn’t feel like going. But I went anyway.

I have to say, even I’m a bit proud of myself.

But the challenge now really begins. As of this post, I am leaving the United States to visit my home country Malaysia for three weeks. It’s a vacation. Will I continue with my exercise? If not, will I have to start all over again when I come back at the end of February?

I hope to continue my three-times-a-week exercise even in Malaysia. We’ll see.

Since my parents’ visit, and my Gastric-My-Ass-Surgery effect, I have been eating less, and more sensibly. I stop before I get too full. That’s probably right around the end of October. Plus the exercise, I have lost a total of 11 lbs. I am now 185 lbs. I only hope that I won’t be back to the 190’s after my vacation. Let’s face it, I’m going to eat!

This morning, I pulled out the clothes that I bought from Malaysia at the end of 2004. Four months ago, I couldn’t wear any of them. Pants were too tight, and shirts were too snug. This morning, everything fits. Not completely comfortably. But I know I’m getting there. I hope I’ll keep it up too.

That’s it folks. I’ll report back either in Malaysia or after my trip. Stay healthy!

Within 9 days, i lose another 4 pounds, I m 179 lbs now. I did not exercise regulary, I just keep controlling my food intake as usual plan, hm.. strange…

You know, the worse thing about a weight loss program, or lifestyle is to fail.
I’m not setting up the goal so high that I am constantly being slapped back by failures. This time I’m taking it slowly.

As far as weight. The last time I stepped on the scaled, I was 186.6lbs. Which technically means I have lost 9.4 lbs. All by eating less. I still eat everything I want. Just not as much. I started because I was feeling sick if I eat too much (that’s my Gastrick My Ass surgery symptoms). I am continuing my eating habit. Seems like it’s working.

Vincent, you are lighter than me! But you do look wonderful. Weight sometimes plateau. Just keep doing what you’re doing. It’s more so if you are exercising.

And that let me into the next stage of my lifestyle change. Exercise has never been a routine in my life. I did it for one purpose, to lose weight. I did that when I was in college. I had to be in a better shape for an audition. I did very well. But when I found a job, completey away from stage performance, I just let exercise go.

As I’m venturing into my fourth year of my thirties, exercise is becoming more and more a health motivated one. Yes, I’m still vein. I still want to be toned an lean. While that’s more appealing sometimes, but without health, I guess I can’t really enjoy the compliments.
This week, I am hoping to step into a place that I have never stepped foot into in my whole life. The G-Y-M. I guess it’s getting easier and easier to say it. It’s just never been in my vocabulary. I said the word twice this weekend to Bruce. Not as hard as it used to. But for now, I’m still call in SS. Short for Sweat Shop.

This is the only place I’m talking publicly (well, as public as those who read this, probably just us fatties). I’m not going to talk about it much on my show even. I don’t want to talk too much about it. We all know what happened to my “From Fat to Fab” venture last year. Basically in less than three weeks. I gave up.

We’ll see what happens this time. Thanks for sharing all your fatty power here. It really feels like a community.

Andy, I think you’re off to a wonderful start. Keep it up.

ZillaFag is just a whore…that I like.

It is fantastic week 4 of the tracking the fat and this week the fat has won.
After last week and the food poisoning and no food for three days I
went a bit overboard and threw all control out the window.
So the end result was I ended up gaining 5 pounds so I am at 188
pounds and headed in the wrong direction.
Oh well what the fuck… I will just get back on the bus and ride that whore!
Did that make any sense?

Can u imagine it took nearly 3 weeks for me to get rid of 2 pounds ?!

.. I m now at 183 lbs.

Week 3 is full of joyous family fun!

My sister emailed me this morning and asked me to start counting calories for her and report back to her in a couple of days. I went to the kitchen a few minutes ago to get me something to eat for breakfast. I followed the suggested serving size of Raisin Bran which is 1 cup and also 1 cup of milk. To my surprise that is approximately the amount that I would have normally ate. The only problem with the cereal is the milk, we only have 2% milk in the house. I suspect that is something that will have to change.

There are two numbers, Calories and then Calories from fat. I don’t know if I’m suppose to add both of these numbers together or if I should just jot down the calories of each item. The Raisin Bran has 190 calories per cup and 15 calories per cup from fat. I also had 1 cup of Mayfield 2% reduced fat milk with my cereal which has 360 calories per cup. TOTAL CALORIES FOR BREAKFAST: 550 (I think).

According to that, on a 1,000 calorie diet I would not survive! However, I have heard that most people, men in particular, need 3,000 calories.

What is everyone else’s thought on this?

EDIT 1: I forgot to mention, she also asked me to buy a food scale. Don’t exactly know what it will be used for other than measuring food.

EDIT 2: Do I include tea in my calories if I don’t put sugar into it?

EDIT 3: I was wrong. The milk only has 130 calories per cup. That changes my breakfast total to 320 calories. I also called and asked my sister about the tea, she said I could count it as water as long as it had no calories or sugar in it. That won’t be a problem as long as I drink this green tea that Dace bought me for Christmas. With it, I don’t need sugar, it’s flavorful enough. Before I got off the phone, my sister said she set up a “Sparkle” account for me, she told me not to look at it until I figured out the calories, so, I guess it’s like a weight loss help site.

Well I am being lazy and just doing the update in the texty format.
I was real bad this week and ate pizza and barbecue and basically threw the diet out the window for the most part.
I did manage to lose 1/2 pound so I am at 185 so it was not a complete failure.
I am gonna be back at it come Tuesday but till then all bets are off!
So I am off to a Xmas party and sure to have lots of good food and tommorow it is roast beef..yummy.

Here is some silly stuff for the Holidays…

Me as a elf
