  Five weeks into my total body transformation at the hands of High Performance gym in New York City, I have been paid the ultimate compliment. My wife, my friends, my co-workers, my mailman, my deli guy, my neighbors, my plant-waterer, my college roommate, Uma Thurman's stalker, Tyra Banks' publicist, my tennis partner, my Subway sandwich artist, my priest, and my fish cleaner have all remarked on my new svelte shape. Which is nice. But when, just last night, my mom, who I haven't seen since I started my regimen, told me I looked half my size, I knew all the hard work had been worth it. Thanks ma! Check back next week for the unveiling of the new me - and see for yourself!

  My journey from fab to flab has come to an interesting crossroads. Just 28 days since I first submitted myself prostrate to Clay and Elizabeth Burwell at High Performance, my body - and life - has changed. And I am noticing it. Like, I was kind of jogging to the subway a few days ago, and I could feel my pecs bouncing up and down. Because there are muscles in there now. First time ever for that. But believe me that's just the beginning. Read on for more on my total lifestyle transformation...

  My total body transformation has kicked into high gear. I am at the halfway point, and just this morning, I weighed in at 158.6 pounds! Which means I've lost 6 pounds in three weeks! But here's the thing, I've also gained a ton of muscle mass in my shoulders, back, and midsection, so my total weight loss is definitely even more than 6 pounds. And the most important thing - I am as strong and limber as I was in high school when I played soccer, which was a loooooong time ago. All thanks and credit go to Clay and Elizabeth Burwell at High Performance in New York, who took on the daunting challenge of turning my pudge into pugilistic power! But Clay and Elizabeth have some little friends I want you to meet that have also been integral to shaping my superphat physique...

  6 Weeks to Sexy: Turning My Philip Seymour Hoffman Body Into ...

  Everyone tells me I look like Philip Seymour Hoffman. Which is fine, he's cool. But I want to look like Sting, circa 1982. So who do I go to for a total body transformation? The husband-and-wife personal trainer team who own High Performance. They fell in love in boxing class. Need I say more? Here's the catch. They've only got six weeks to get my pudgy ass into rock star shape. Because in six weeks, New York Fashion Week starts. And this season, I will not be the fattest dude at the tents. So READ MORE for more about my trainers Elizabeth and Clay (like the fact he trained Matt Damon), click the SLIDESHOW for pics of my humiliating Week 1, and watch a quick VIDEO for a snippet of me struggling to use my stomach for something other than luring nachos to their death.
