From Fat Lolli to 6 Pack Lolli: The Ultimate Transformation Story

I can't believe I wasted time with this narcissistic pile of crap. I mean, I was going to fall asleep on the couch regardless, but this mindless egotistical drivel in the background was such a waste of electricity.

I particularly loved the wife's reference to her "checklist." It's nothing special, pretty much the same "checklist "every other gold digging cooz in the world has, money. That's it. Thanks for sharing what we all already knew. You can be a fat piece of crap but as long as you're rich you can bag a hot gold digging piece of quiff.

Shame on Jeff Bezos for letting this steaming pop of crap on his platform.

After all this man went through, after he spent all the money he did, after he surrounded himself DAILY with all those fitness and health people, FOR OVER 1.5 YEARS, the first thing Tony did when the body show was over, was to sneak away and go eat a burger.

Really?

So Tony seemingly learned nothing about food and how the fake foods he previously ate were a significant factor in him being overweight and obese and doing a lot of damage inside his body which he cannot see.

Perhaps the education on food was not enough or clear enough? I think this guy may well end up back where he was, and if he has a food addiction, which many people have without realizing it (including myself), he will put on the pounds again.

Did he keep going to the gym, every day, once the show was over? Or 2-3 times a week? Or at all?

There was one telling moment of his mindset, when his wife was explaining that he would deny her attention because he was so committed to his goal. And he explained, I knew I had to sacrifice some things in order to get to my goal in a short time, rather than take longer. Then "once it was out of the way, I can get back to living normally".

This mindset shows that Anthony doesn't understand that he has to KEEP doing all that he did (but perhaps with less intensity since he doesn't need to lose weight, compete in a show, etc., anymore), FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE. This should not have been a one time thing, which Anthony seems to have treated it as it was.

I hope since the show he has kept the weight off and stopped eating garbage, because that undoes all he has achieved.

So let me get this straight. A millionaire hires 3 personal trainers and a nutritionist and thinks you can do the same thing? Suuuuure. This was in no way educational or inspiring. Showboating to the fullest. Just a money grab to pay for all the expensive training and flying a dude from Ireland to cook for him. Don't waste your time watching this.

Dude's a mega millionaire. Of course he can lose 125 pounds in 9 months when he can afford a personal trainer and a dietitian and eat organic everything and work out all day long because he doesn't have a real job since he sold his company for millions.

I want to see documentary that profiles a normal person with a 40k/yr and a 9-5 job - THAT is inspirational.

This is a tedious 94 minutes of showboating Mr Lolli's change from a lumpy fat guy, and a self-proclaimed real estate mogul, to being on a stage in a small-time, low level physique show (in which everyone is his category was named "the winner").

Clearly, this man lost a lot of weight and built his body to something quite different to what it was before. That is all quite fine. But for the viewer, there is very little in the way of details of how he did what he did and what he had to go through, day in, day out, week in week out, month in month out. And apart from a couple of sad events that occurred during his transformation, there isn't any footage of him struggling, of giving up, of getting despondent/dispirited/demotivated or tired, or of being unable to continue when working out. There is no mention of any issues with giving up the crap food he was eating, or how he felt, day in day out. Then there are these numerous and pointless few seconds shots of him saying "Today is (enter date)" blah blah blah - what exactly is the point of showing the viewer that Mr director? In 9-10 months, we learned very little of what Mr Lolli went through to transform his body, but we saw lots of footage of biceps flexing, irritating stomach showing (by Mr Lolli and from one of his trainers, who is highly irritating and clearly in love with himself), and lots of footage of him doing various exercises, but none of him struggling, or in pain, or also, how much money he had to spend for all that he chose to do and that he lavished on all the people involved with him, which looks like many thousands of dollars, once it is all added up. And of course, Mr Lolli is not working, so he doesn't have that aspect to deal with, unlike 95% of other people.

It seems that Mr Lolli didn't want to show any aspects of his journey that don't make him look good or that he didn't have to fight (win) over. Indeed, this a naked self-promotion for Mr A. Lolli, masquerading as a documentary, and which shows no failures of Mr Lolli, or any issues that face a large percentage of the population who are in similar positions to Mr Lolli, but who are not like him and do not have the resources he does.

There is also just too much footage of pointless scenes, of highly obtrusive music, flashy lights, etc., which just adds to the off putting message of this unhelpful and waste of hard disk space.

The various glaring omissions are quite significant, because glossing over numerous and complex issues, including the mental/emotional aspects that plague/frequent many of those who seek to lose weight or get fit, are very difficult barriers to overcome and Mr Lolli's 'look at how great I am" advertorial does zero for such people.

This is just an advert for how great Mr Lolli is. But we don't know what he actually went through to get from where he was to where he ended up.
