When we started unstarved, it was with three basic purposes:
- A creative outlet for two recent college grads who had just entered the work force.
- A fun way to chronicle my weight loss efforts as up to that point I’d been dropping weight like gang-busters.
- The sinfully lavish fame and life of excess which is rampant among video bloggers. I heard Ze lives indoors. Hedonist.
After several months, #1 was a rousing success.
Oddly, starting our video blog correlated almost directly with a flatline in my weight loss progress. It seemed almost as if there’s a limited amount of willpower and now with effort going towards turning out weekly video blogs, there was less attention to be paid to the actual losing of weight.
This made the weight loss portion of the show, which I had originally planned on being the foundation, less exciting.
One possibility considered was for me to start on the diet followed by Olympian Michael Phelps to boost weight loss results, which involves “three fried egg sandwiches with cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, fried onions and mayonnaise, followed by three chocolate-chip pancakes; a five-egg omelet; three sugar-coated slices of French toast and a bowl of grits (a maize-based porridge), washed down with two cups of coffee.”
…for BREAKFAST. However, my suspicions are this diet might not be universal in its results, though the person who writes “The Olympian Diet” book is going to be stupid rich.
In addition to my stubbornly consistent weight, my sister and I both been working on other projects including stand up and improv comedy, and we’d both like to focus more time in these areas.
So unstarved is going on hiatus for the time being. Thanks for all the support and please check back here as we’ll let you know of other projects we’re working on.
Keep it raw like pepsi, love you.
good luck and have fun red :)
the perils of blogging… all that blog writing and reading and commenting means a lot of time spent on one’s arse. they need to invent the all-in-one treadmill/laptop…
I heard Phelps is on an 10000 Calorie diet…. Ten Thousand. Every day. That’s 5x the FDA “normal” diet.
Sorry to see the vlog go on the back burner, but We (the Internetzens) forgive you. Good luck on the stand up (invite me to another show some time).
Aw! I’m a little bit sad, but I understand. Could you maybe just do a weekly written post to keep us all updated? You could even run some material by us and we’ll tell you how funny it is!
Good luck with your new endeavors – take care and stay away from the meth!!
Major bummer. Good luck as thing progress. Learn to love the skin you’re in. Take some vids of the stand up. I would love to see it. There’s good stuff in the future for both of you. Anyone can see that.
Dammit. Now what’s a stalker to do when the object of her un-starved affections goes on haitus??? I remember the first day I found your site…the way the apple juice burst outta my nose from laughing. Ahhh good times. Good luck with the stand-up and improv. You’re both hella funny. When you’re accepting your Oscar for best comedy, don’t forget to send a shout out to your loyal blog watchers.
@dg
thanks!
@whereami
The “diet” link in the article covers Michael Phelps diet. It is indeed crazy. I’ll send you an email about an upcoming show later today.
@Jill
Hopefully in the next week or so I’ll post a link here to a new site where you can get updates.
@JanB
I’ll definitely post vids of standup as soon as I have them.
@KP
Thanks, and it’s not safe to consume apple juice near the internet.
so are you saying that there won’t be a video this week?
I understand. You can just email the vlogs to me personally. That will save you the time and effort of posting to the internets. Good luck on your next endeavor!

They do have a laptop stand that attaches to the treadmill. I read a review on it, unfortunately the review was poor and the product was expensive. But I’m sure there is a market out there for something like that, so you inventors– get it!
