Unlike her meanass Mother and Pumkin, I thought NY (from Flavor of Love) looked fine weight-wise.

Alright, so practically everyone knows that I put on some weight during the show. The combination of stress and junk food, resulted in me gaining 11 lbs (sorry Pumkin, it wasn't 20 lbs lol). Anyhow, back home in Syracuse when I was my fabulous self, mom did most of the cooking. Some days we would go out to a nice restaurant in the city. My mother is a health freak, so all of our meals were low fat, high fiber, with a good balance of carbs and protein. Whenever we went out, it would usually be Mediterranean or Asian seafood.
Unfortunately, at Flav's house, the producers spoiled us with high fat, high carb, processed foods or frozen entrees! We basically ate whatever was in the fridge or at restaurants, which was mostly fatty meals as well. Worst of all, I started having an addiction to pizza and ice cream during my stay at the house! Looking back, I'm sure all the girls had a ball watching me balloon, losing my sexy figure. Funny how they were nicest to me when I was eating! Not just myself, but I'm pretty sure other girls(I won't name who), also put on some weight too.
The moment I moved out here(L.A.), my agent told me I needed to lose weight fast. All the Socal people already know this, but this city is extremely competitive and unforgiving when it comes to looks. Almost everyone has a nice body. Its almost like you can get away with an average face, but you can't fool people when you're fat!
So far, I have been going to the Santa Monica 24 hour fitness religiously most evenings after dinner. Since I don't know how to cook, my roomate who is a fashion model and thin as a rail, taught me a few weight loss tricks that worked great, so I thought I'd share:
1. For breakfast, just have cigarettes & coffee( no sugar, only sweeteners allowed)! The idea is that the cigarettes raise your metabolism and curb hunger, while the caffeine from the coffee also raises your metabolism and releases some of the fat molecules that was stored the night before.
2. Stock up on frozen entrees(only the lean kind under 300 calories) & mixed frozen veggies in a bag:carrots, peas, green beans and lima beans. Mix about 1 cup of veggies with the frozen entree and what you have is a satisfying, high fiber, low fat/calorie, filling meal under 350 calories! This is great for busy people since, all you need is a microwave.
3. Stock up on Dexatrim Max diet pills. I prefer to take 1 of these right before my workout ---This stuff really works. The rush and energy you get is amazing.
I've already lost 8 pounds and have just 7 more to go...Ultimately, my goal is to reach my original weight of 110----- cross your fingers! =)
Oh yes, smoking and diet pills are an important part of any healthy diet *rolls eyes*

I thought New York was slightly overweight, but not fat.

Yeah, because marrying a guy for money is totally something you'd like to teach the children. So is having sex with a man that resembles a black version of Gollum just to win a reality show and get his money.

Date: Mar. 19th, 2006 01:47 am (UTC)I wanted Goldie to win, but Hoopz (and Smilely) were my other picks.
It's because of the crazy gals why I couldn't help watching. Just about DIED from watching Hottie's (lack of) cooking skills. Can't believe she didn't know that the 'chicken' setting on a microwave is for defrosting. Plus insisting that the bird was cooked - Helen Keller could have seen it was still 100% raw.

LJ uped it's number of UserPics for Paid Members on Friday so that why I'm using it as an icon. Wanted a DarkWalter icon for quite some time.
Made a new Jan too - from my favorite doujinshi circle New Luke is next.

Date: Mar. 20th, 2006 07:34 am (UTC)The show was such a guilty pleasure for me. I feel bad for watching it but it was so damn entertaining.
NY was in major love with Flav, very posessive, and very catty to all the other girls. If you ever get a chance to see the show (supposedly it got the highest rating out of all other reality shows) do it, damn funny.
