Looks like we’re finally going to be ready to release “The Anniversary” on DVD and video on demand near the end of June… at last.

For now, I wanted to share a little clip from the movie that we call “Have you seen her? She’s Hot”.

Clip from “The Anniversary” from campea on Vimeo.

I am quite proud of the project… but tonight I was going through some “behind the scenes” photos and I came across this one:

The picture was taken in the middle of shooting my favorite scene of the movie while I was working with Jason Contini (the lead character named Cid) and Ryan McGuffy (who plays Myron).

I remember talking them through what the dialog in that scene means to me personally… and I remember how completely they GOT IT. They really got what I wanted and performed the scene perfectly. For that reason, this picture is my favorite from the production, and I just thought I’d share it here.

In my last update on January 7th, I weighed in at 234.2 pounds which was almost 5 pounds down from my starting weight.

This morning at the gym I weighed in at 227.2 which is another 7 pounds down.

So that means that I’ve lost nearly 12 pounds since I began, and I already FEEL it.

What’s shocked me is how easy its been. I haven’t done anything drastic at all. I cut out Ice Cream (that’s the hardest part.. but I treat myself to a shake maybe once a week), I eat fruit for breakfast and I count my calories (I try to stay at about 1500/day). That, and I try to hit the gym a few times a week.

Ok, sticking with it… so far so good.

Yesterday I weighed in at 234.2 pounds. So I’m down 4.8 pounds. Good start.

The quick start won’t last. I think my body was so desperate to drop some weight that it reacted immediately to my exercise and proper diet.

I’m not doing anything drastic. Just getting more exercise, and making much smarter eating choices (no more ice cream, no more soda, more vegetable soup, salads and fruits).

Here’s hoping I can stick with it.

This week, I weighed in at the heaviest I’ve ever been in my life… 239 pounds. My ideal weight is 205.

Here’s a picture of me from New Years Eve (the woman in the pic is Theresa from my movie “The Anniversary”:

As you can see, I’m bigger than I’ve ever been. The worst part of it is that I can FEEL it. I just don’t feel healthy. My legs get sore faster due to carrying around 40 extra pounds, I tire out faster and I don’t sleep as well.

THIS MUST CHANGE NOW.

So… a couple of days ago I started to focus on getting exercise and putting effort into eating properly. Nothing extreme… but it’s time to get serious.

So to help me do this, I’ve decided to post here on my blog my weight every couple of days to keep myself accountable.

SO ME A FAVOR… please encourage me as I make progress… and mock me when I don’t. I could really use the help.

Thanks guys… and happy new year!

I mentioned that physical attraction is a significant thing when one is considering pursuing another person. I didn’t say that was a good or a bad thing… just that if there is going to be a connection between two people at least SOME sort of physical attraction at some level has to exist.

The person I was talking to insisted that made me a shallow person and proceeded to get quite upset with me.

Once again, I didn’t say that’s how it SHOULD be… I merely pointed out that it was a fact. But to this person… just stating that made me a shallow person.

So what gives? Is some sort of physical attraction important or not?
