C-Mac went Keto, Craiggy is probably eating something from Perrotti's as you read this, and hell, we've got a digital guy who is one or two more away from turning into an actual chicken parm. And then there's Gio, who was so fed up with his weight gain that he and his wife decided to do something called the ProLon Fast all week.
"Eating season ends Super Bowl Sunday, and I had the gout, and was a little bit of a mess," Gio noted on Friday's show. "I've done a lot of these – Whole30 was restrictive, and Keto is good if you like to eat, but all of a sudden I'm strung out on provolone! And intermittent fasting works too, but it's harder for people like us not on normal schedule."
Al chimed in wondering if his own diet – grilled chicken and lettuce – would have been just as effective, to which Gio got all scientific on what the ProLon Fast actually does. And, Gregg says he's feeling great despite "wanting to kill somebody" at one point Thursday, but he and Gina are at a crossroads: just two soups were left on the five-day cleanse as of this morning, and while Gregg wants to skip the final soup for maybe a salad and a Casamigos on the rocks, Gina wanted him to finish strong.
"Remember the old Chris Farley when he dressed as a woman to grab the French fries? That's what I was like," Gio laughed. "But tonight, I'm not sure."
Boomer did a little diet for Gunnar's wedding and has kept his weight off, so what will happen to Gio?
"If I didn't stop at some point and do something, I'd be 600 pounds, and you'd be wheeling me in here with oxygen!" Gio said. "I'd have no neck, and wouldn't be able to see over my cheek fat."
Gio is going to see Dua Lipa on Monday night at UBS Arena and will be off Tuesday, so plenty of time to, uh, undo the effects?
