Can the Chaz Bono Non-Diet Diet Work for You Too?

Can the Chaz Bono Non-Diet Diet Work for You Too? After announcing via Twitter that he had lost 60 pounds, Chaz Bono showed off his slimmer figure this past weekend at the GLAAD Awards in Los Angeles. So how'd he do it? "I still enjoy dancing," the 44-year-old Dancing with the Stars alum tells People . "I still take classes." In addition to martial arts training, Bono also attributes his slimmer figure to his eating habits. "I've just changed the way I eat," adds Bono, who has followed the Freshology delivered-meal plan in the past. "Diets don't work.

You just have to change what you eat, and I have. I cook a lot of different stuff. I really avoid grains and starches, so meats and vegetables and fruits are my diet.

I make them all different ways to keep it interesting." See a few of Chaz's inspirational tweets and a video news report on his weight loss below. I hit the 60LB weight loss mark this week and feeling really good. Thanks for all the support. @thedoctors @drevacwynar @nztmma Chaz Bono (@ChazBono) April 3, 2013 I find it so ironic that I'm getting tweets from folks asking me for diet advice.

It's not about dieting, it's changing eating habits 4ever. Chaz Bono (@ChazBono) April 8, 2013 Thanks for all the congratulatory tweets about my weight loss. If I can change my diet, giving up grains, sugar, and dairy, anyone can!

Vintage Hunk: Dolph Lundgren

Vintage Hunk: Dolph Lundgren Vintage Hunk has profiled ex-Presidents, Academy Award winners, TV stars and now just a pure hunk with no attempt to add any redeeming qualities like acting ability, cult movies or any other saving grace other than a gorgeous body. Dolph Lundgren, born Hans Lundgren in Sweden in 1957 was an 80s action hero and martial arts star. Lundgren first came to the attention of the American public when he played Russian boxer Ivan Drago in Rocky IV - the series that would not die!

Dolph Lundgren starred in such cinema classics as Masters of the Universe as He-Man and action junk films like The Punisher and Universal Soldier opposite his Dutch clone Jean-Claude Van Damme. One of Dolph's finest moments was not a film but a sexy poster where singer Grace Jones stood in front of the naked Adonis. But whatever one thinks of Dolph and his "career" the man himself is extremely intelligent and very self-aware.

He has a chemistry and chemical engineering degree and in an Entertainment Weekly 2011 article on the Swedish hunk, former co-star Sylvester Stallone stated: "He's probably the most educated guy in the history of Hollywood, but you'd never know it because he looks the way he does." EW described him as: "looking like a Norse God...his face is all chiseled-granite angles, and his tanned skin makes his teeth seem as big and bright as mah-jongg tiles." (Not bad for a man who just turned 55!) Dolph Lundgren sounded fun and very intelligent in this interview. When asked if he had a Clint Eastwood type film in him, the actor/director stated: "Well I don't know if I'd take it that far. But don't count me out.

I may surprise you." Dolph Lungren was a beautiful Swedish God who was perfect 80s eye candy.

And the French film magazine summed him up best.

Dolph was "Le Champion du Muscle." Continue reading

Vintage Hunk: John Saxon

Vintage Hunk: John Saxon Born Carmine Orrico in Brooklyn in 1936, John Saxon was the son of a dock worker. After high school he studied acting with the legendary Stella Adler and broke into films when notorious agent Henry Willson (who discovered and named Rock, Rory, Tab,Troy and many others) saw his picture and brought him to Hollywood. The newly dubbed John Saxon had his first major role opposite Esther Williams and George Nader in The Unguarded Moment playing a sexually disturbed teen who stalks teacher Williams.

This film was advertised by Universal as "Co-starring the exciting new personality JOHN SAXON". Today this film is totally weird as co-star George Nader (another Willson discovery) was thrown to the wolves as being gay when Confidential Magazine threatened to expose Rock Hudson. Universal was more than eager to sacrifice a smaller gay star in order to protect Hudson.

John Saxon's first classic film was The Reluctant Debutante directed by Vincent Minnelli. The film starred newlyweds Rex Harrison and Kay Kendall, but was sold to movie audiences as a Sandra Dee/John Saxon movie. And both of the young stars were first rate under Minnelli's gifted direction.

They both would co-star again in the Lana Turner murder mystery Portrait in Black. Sandra Dee's life would spiral out of control after her divorce from pop singer Bobby Darrin, but John Saxon sailed into steady film work for decades. His roles varied from Lt.

Thompson in Wes Craven s fantasy terror masterpiece A Nightmare on Elm Street and co-starring with Bruce Lee in the martial arts hit Enter The Dragon , to a Golden Globe nomination for his work opposite Marlon Brando in The Appaloosa . My favorite John Saxon film is the cult horror film Black Christmas where a bunch of girls are being murdered in a sorority. Any film that has the deranged killer making phone calls starting with "Let me lick it!" has my attention.

John Saxon is very much alive and working to this day. He recently attended a screening of Enter The Dragon at the Los Angeles Cinematheque and was interviewed by the Los Angeles Times who stated: "And he's still pretty cool as he sits in the living room of his Brentwood hills home he shares with his wife, Gloria. At 76, he is fit, trim and brimming with machismo." John Saxon was one of the sexy Italian hunks of mid-century American films.

He came in the era of Sal Mineo, Frankie Avalon, Fabian and a bunch of others who quickly vanished.

John Saxon stayed because he was more than a pretty face and body.

He was and is a fine actor. Continue reading
