My New Job (That Doesn’t Pay Me)

This experiment is becoming a full-time job. So much so that it’s starting to negatively affect my real job of running Scrawny To Brawny. Between cooking, eating, working out, and documenting everything in a journal, I’m spending close to 7 hours per day working on this stuff. In contrast, I’m maybe doing two to three hours of…… More

24 Hours Without Food

Today was my first 24-hour fast day. Apparently it’s all part of some master plan of JB’s. Here’s what happened: 9:00 AM – Wake up 9:30 AM – Realize I don’t have to make a huge breakfast or eat toast. I am ecstatic. 10:15 AM – Prepare my breakfast of greens powder, green tea, and BCAA caps.…… More

Sex and The Lion King

When you’re shoveling three huge meals into your mouth every day, timing is everything. My “normal” schedule — at least for the past five days — has been breakfast at 8:00 AM, lunch at 2:00 PM, and dinner at 7:00 PM. But today I fucked up my whole day. I slept in till 9:30 AM.…… More

Motherfucking Dumbbells

Today I called a pair of dumbbells “motherfuckers.” As in, All right you motherfuckers, let’s go. I never talk like this. At least not to inanimate objects. My friend Kyle — who was working out with me at MUST — burst out laughing. What’s next? You gonna call the barbell a pussy? he asked. Thing is, I wasn’t upset…… More

Lean, Muscular, and Out of Shape

“Can I get three pounds of the chicken, please?” I’m standing at the deli because I’ve determined that cooking every single one of my meals at home is a laborious task and I’ve got too much shit to do. I mean, I already spend two hours just eating my lunch. So while I’ll continue to make my…… More

Giving Birth

Can I quickly talk to you about my ass? I’m sorry — I don’t really want to. But I think you should know how god-awful my bowel movements have been the past two days, lest you decide you want to try this experiment for yourself. I’ll spare you most of the details, and just say…… More

My Introduction to the Hurricane

Last night before I went to bed I weighed 178 pounds. This morning I weigh 171 pounds. That leads me to believe I farted about seven pounds’ worth of gas during my sleep, which makes me feel both disgusting and very, very bad for Richelle, with whom I share a bed. But still, a 3…… More

The Longest Breakfast of My Life

I stare at the clock and shake my head. Then I look back at my plate of food. This is my breakfast: Breakfast Pudding 2 frozen bananas 3 scoops casein protein 2 squares high cacao chocolate small amount of almond milk Also 4 pieces whole grain bread 2 Tbsp almond butter 2 Tbsp favorite jam…… More

You Gotta Start Somewhere

I wake up at 8 AM, take a piss, and weigh myself. This will be my new routine every day for the rest of this experiment. JB said it was important to weigh myself after peeing since we tend to hold on to a couple pounds of water in the morning. And after not eating…… More
