  • Good vid man so how was japan lol

  • honest to god this was 2 years ago sam wtf are you doing

  • @ilikethingsfromjapan ...your mom?

  • @TkyoSam Touché

  • @TkyoSam Do you still live in Japan?

  • Im doing Atkins right now since thanksgiving and im down 30 lbs!!! 5 more lbs to go and I can start adding back some carbs. Its not bullsh*t it does work... It sucks!!! But it works cause Im freaking lazy and cant get my a** in the gym so it really is good for the lazy. But dang!! With rice and noodles being a big part of the diet there.... But theres all the negiri... But for what ever works for the individual is whats important!!

  • hey man, what's the song you play at the beginning of the vid? Sound's fuckin' awesome!

  • When you it's easy for you to get laid even if you're fat or obese in Japan, do you mean as in all foreigners or just white people? I've read this one book called Ugly Americans and in it it also said it was pretty easy to get women there just because you were a foreigner. Just wondering.

  • Well, I don't know really, my easiest answer is that Japan was the first place I came to realize that even the hawtest/strongest woman you have ever met, probably is more insecure about herself than you are. If you know that, you can exploit it, lol

  • you can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I've just started watching your vids, so I guess I'm a lil behind. But congrats on making a lifestyle change.

    I've also started my own lifestyle change but you've got the blog so I'll just track you and try to keep up ;o)

    One thing I've learned is that eating red bell peppers *are not only tasty* but have TONS of beta carotene & 1000x's more vit. C than oranges. Just something to help out on your road to that 32 waist.

    ^_^

  • ok tokyo sam i would like you to know that i have started watching all of your vids from the beginning lately to get a further understanding on life in japan. i have watched other living in japan vids and many people claim that the food in japan causes foreigners to loose weight just becouse of the low cal..

    and i have noticed you lost weight throughout your vids so good luck ill try to stay black even though im white and hope to seem more vids soon

  • Ya dawg since you already got the eating healthy part done *Figure out your calorie intake per day bla bla bla..

    Just thought I'd help with my experience, growing muscle is like growing a tree. You can't work out the same part too much, you need to give it a good 3 set X 10 rep then rest and move on to the next one. Cardio is going to be a biatch to get use to because when I started out it took me a month to build up the consistency for it, find your rhythm when you run. Dammit there goes my..

  • dude, you can eat McD's once in awhile...

  • yuk, why would you eat that as a choice...

    i'm not skinny, i'm not over weight, but Mc donalds just makes you feel nasty. It's greasy, it's poor quality, it makes your stomach upset after.

    I LOVE BURGERS, i'm not hating on burgers, but mc donalds is one of the worst burger joints.

    So, IDK, i feel that burgers are okay once in awhile, but not MC d's. /watch?v=4IGtDPG4UfI

  • Comment removed

  • dude, are there not gyms there?

  • Tykosam.. if you wanna lose weight just eat what the old style japanese ate fish.. rice.. veges etc no need for book i lost lbs in less then a year doing it

  • Well, the cardinal rule to weight loss is that every body is different - what may have worked great for you may not work for Sam, and vice-versa.

  • Foreigner Factor AKA Fsquared.

  • Good luck on the diet, man! I'm right there with you at the moment! I wanna drop a few before I hit Japan again!

  • Hey try high intesity interval training in your workouts. It should burn the fat quicker and raise your volume of oxygen max (VO2max), but dont forget to weight train or do calisthenics (push ups, pull ups, 8 min abs is awesome and is where I started and is found on you tube) as well to help raising the metabolism and help sculpting the body. And dont forget protein prior and post workouts!!!!

    Most all good luck man you can do it eye of tiger, keep kicking a@@ and smoking grass.

  • Thats very good advice man, thanks a bunch :D . . . .if only could find the grass, lol

  • actually the most important thing you need after a workout is sugar but from a good source. every cell is fuelled by fructose/glucose. the best thing would be a green smoothie because it's full of minerals and sugar. you only need like 9 grams of protein a day and a high protein diet is a huge contributer to bowel cancer. fruit is full of amino acids which are more easily used by the body because your body needs to break down protein into amino acids to make protein specific for your own body.

  • nah bro atp syn can fueled by protein,more effiently.You are right though, The weapon of choice is usually glucose for the body.Brush up a little on bodybuilding and basic bio, b/c when the carbs run out it runs on lipids(fat) and protien reserves and not in an atkins sort of way.This is nothing new taught in BIO-101.Not saying sam should eat his body weight in protein, though but enough so that like docs and dieticians and bodybuilders all recommend, respectivly.

  • why learn about bodybuilding when he's trying to loose weight first?!?!? the amount recommended for your rdi can be provided easily without animal products just by eating. protein deficiency is nearly impossible. amino acids and protein is found in nuts, seeds, grains, fruits, vegetables, sprouts, legumes. you have to be eating very little to not get enough. supplementing protein in everything is causes excess protein consumption. macro nutrients should be mostly cabrs, 80 % 10% protein 10% fat

  • hey trky rich address these as I see them. If want to argue off sam's page. But if you want to keep arguing like dork, I would be happy to oblige. first off bodybuilding doesnt mean BIG muscles it means sculpting your body to liking, which knowledge of nutrition and phyisological processes to do good. Now of course leguemes nuts and crap have protein but who wants its like smoking weed (which isnt bad by anymeans)they both have female isoflavones in them, so they give you man boobs and cancer

  • to be fueled by protein or fat though the body makes them into energy through enzymatic processes which waste energy eat sufficient carbs from fruit and you don't waste your energy doing this. body builders know jack about diet. they have salt to puff them up before comps and take drugs, steal water from their liver with creatine to again puff up and look bigger or have alot of fat making them look bigger. the last people i want diet advice from.

  • Now bro dont hate, now given that I said respectivly,but I will clarify would not take nutrient advice from half bodybuilders I meet, but there some bright ones and those are the successful ones who see cutting fat as a simple process. Dude you are thinking of keitogenesis, which atkins, which is running the body off its own adipose and protein. These enzymatic proceses is called normal digestion, yes. And believe or not protein is digested first in the stomach by pepsin then in the duodenum.

  • oh and Dude dont shoot off your mouth red meat causes colon cancer not protein. And no fruit is not full of amino acids b/c then they would full of protein, they have a little, not as much as a whey smoothie, or egg whites, or anything that comes derived from an animal for that matter.

  • high protein consumption not red meat alone is linked to colon cancer. cancer feed of cooked coagulated useless protein from animal products. fruit and plant food does have amino acids. its what protein is made out of. meat is higher in protein but you don't even absorb or use all of that protein and you need to break it down in2 amino acids to make human specific protein. like sam said look at chimps and elephants, horses, gorillas who are big and strong from plant material.

  • I became a vegan and I've lost about 15 lbs. with no effort at all. =) I'm sure that you will also lose weight too!!!

  • good shit sam! there's lots of really good tasting healthy food out there. in yoyogi theres a place called veggieparadise that serves all raw vegan food. you should check it out. get into blended fruit smoothies for a good source of carbs and a salad a day. greens are like the main food of chimps and non carnivorous animals.

  • sorry you're getting hammered with all this diet advice. but joel fuhrman is good from what i've heard about his plan because he's not a atkins protein hype moron.

  • keep it up bro,

    try out biking, thats what i did..... and smoked mad amounts of weed

  • Hey Sam man, good luck on your goal, hope it happens for you.

    Best wishes!

    -FreezingMoonFog

  • Just got into your videos, and finally got to one of the last ones! You, sir, are amazing! Your so entertaining!

    I understand you are dieting for your own reasons...but remember that your beautiful the way you are!

    Actually I think your pretty good looking! You look like my ex boyfriend. :P

    Great Videos, Good Luck, and Stay black! :o

  • Oh I know I'm beautiful, but I wanna become more healthy ;)

  • if your fat check it out !!!!!! lol

  • I was in the 8th grade a few months a go? Now in the 9th??? random!!!

  • no more coke and hookers dude... well i guess the hooker part is still okay, a lil' kin-tore for the ol' ketsu

  • Also gonna start a diet if Sam can everyone can :P

  • Right on Sam and nice Vlog! It's about time! Good to see you step up to the plate and make it happen. Look forward to seeing your progress! Skateboarding more....

    How about your Summa Shades Vlog?

  • eat lots of oatmeal...

  • ...that worked for me. (205lbs. to 160lbs.)

  • Hey dude I lost 60Lbs in about 4 months. And now I stay lean, which for me is great because I was always fat, my whole life. The Vegan thing or just Vegetarian helped me out dude. You will feel lighter once you get all that fatty meat out and maybe even try a detox. It will get all the crap out of you intestines that may be slowing down your metabolism and digestive track. But just have fun with it, and man I can tell you that I am amazed at how often I get noticed. It's worth it!

  • Oh yeah, totally agree, just so hard when you go to izakaya or okonomiyaki and NOT have meat or fish :'(

  • good luck on teh diet

  • go Sam! I'll have to check that book out for sure, stay black!

  • 40 pounds is an insane ammount to lose lol. Keep it up man <3

  • Sam this video has inspired me to try this book out. I currently weight 320 and do nothing but sit on my ass and eat junk.

    I think if you can do it so can I, heck to make me so a lot of things. Great video and stick to it! I will if you do!

  • yhea u loose that weight

  • good luck sam!!

    can you answer this question how long did it take you to learn kanji

    because i had the book from that guy that guy heisic and i have known the hiragana and katakana for a while but i am to scared to start kanji

  • Do it for the onee-sans mofo

  • i was 210 i went down to 160 in 3 month by not eating mcdy's and any kind of fast food, drink lots of water, exercise 4 days of week in gym for 1 hour.

    The loosing part is kind of easy the hard part is keeping your weight down, I have been lazy and been back to junk food and went up to 180.

  • good luck dude

  • You have my support.Changeing the way of living is the only real diet.Good luck and never give up.

  • yea man traying to get hot asian booty makes any one want to get in shape.

  • Good luck to ya mate!! I know you have that motivation in you, damn you can even do a kartwheel and stuff, and that thing is hard... (I swear I haven't tried that a lot...) Anyways Good Luck, I know you can do it you seksy man you!

  • Sam, I think you're making a good start. Keep it up, and take one day at a time.

  • Apes still get their proteins eating living critters.

    Also atkins can be applied to veganism. It's not just about the meat, it's about making wiser choices about ones carb intake.

    Some people go vegan with a wish to loose weight and become "healthier", only to find they keep grubbing on all those breads and pastas and wind up gaining weight instead.

    If you wind up being strict vegan be SURE you keep up on how others deal with possible deficiencies. Good stuff to know before hand.

    Good luck!

  • go for it brah

    I used to be 200, and I'm about 165 now. You can see it in my older videos.

    from riding my bike

    but it takes a long time

    anyway, you don't wanna hear my advice bullshit,

    just work at it brah good luck

  • Eat some of that salad ice cream you ate around last Thanksgiving with Cooney. That would make anyone stop eating.

  • sam

    GAMBATA NE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • eating healthy is awesome man, it will make you feel and look so much better :P and exercise is even better so good luck i really hope you stick with it, tell us how you feel in a few weeks

  • Im holding my thumbs for you buddy! Do your best!

  • go for it buddy, I've lost about 50 someodd lbs in the last year or so myself.

  • hey mate, i am in the midst of the old dieting myself, eat less move more is a pretty solid mantra to go with on the diet front.

    Good luck and dont deprive your self of the odd treat, just eat a little less of it ^_^

  • full vegietarian here

    but if i did not eat milk and cheese i would rather be fat. dont forget to be more active good luck

  • Best o luck Sam! I am trying too lol

  • If you drink soda, that's a killer. I stopped drinking pop and lost 40 pounds in a month and a half without changing any eating habits. I switched to tea, then just to water. I highly suggest dropping pop, u'll feel better and look alot better. Best of luck to you Sam! Hope it works out for you.

  • Yeah, I love the tea! Good thing there are a lot of varieties :D

  • Hey dude, great stuff. The great thing about Japan is that even when you get skinny, you can't rebound because EVERYONE will tell you when you put weight back on - man, people here can be brutal on that crap. Good stuff man - I saw you have noticably dropped some pounds already so keep it up?

    One request - for all us non-Americans, can you include some metric figures for us to follow?

    Kakite ano, bro!

    Peace

  • OH and ive been wanting to tell you this for a while, you have internet, why dont you get an XBOX360 so i can kick your ass on HALO3

  • good luck Sam.

  • ' if your fat check it out' hahahahahh :D

  • GoooD LUck SAM ! Keep up the spirit buddy!

  • Best of luck to you! once you lose the weight I bet you'll hump every piece of ass that ever set foot on that island. stay black.

  • Sam, its great that you do this, I which you the best of luck... The thing is that, drop the japanses rice, Its very easy to rise in weight by it and I think that it will help you get to your goal faster... Btw? no meat? what about fish? what like protein intake are you gona take then? like shakes? or mabe just korn and beans? Now when i got here to Japan i lost my way to eat healthy just because the food i usualy eat where no where to be found :D hehe... yeah, good luck! Gambate!!

  • Wii fit.....?

  • Actually, i am also on the diet now.

    Let's hang out buddy!!

  • gl hf

  • i am a 32 in waist, i feel i don't even eat enough -_-.

  • I too lost a bunch of weight when I first moved here, but sadly I gained it all back over time. So I fully support your effort! Go man go!

    2 questions..

    1 - at work, do you have to eat kyushoku? How will you deal with that?

    2 - do you drink soda?

    I wish I could give up Coke, but it's so hard!! LOL

  • From here on out I eat a salad with some fruit for lunch.

    I stopped drinking soda a couple weeks ago. Switched to tea, luckily the got tons of variety of them here :D

  • Dammit, I couldn't see your nipple!

    Anyway, yeah, it's best if you announce your goals to other people. That way they can hold you accountable. I'm thinking of doing the same (but not for losing weight; I'm already a human flag pole lol)

  • you are so cool Sam, you just inspire me to try and lose some weight, especially if I ever want to hook up with a Japanese girl, lol. Wish you good luck man.

  • Good for u Sam! I'm not over weight(in fact I'm under) but I recently started to self motivate myself to be less...lazy! So i'm gonna hang out w/ my friends more(cause thats what teenagers do right?)

  • Good luck Sam, I hope you to get fucking healthy ! LOL So Fucking healthy you're mom is going to be like : OMG WHAT HAVE YOU DONE IN JAPAN :O YOU'VE LOST SO MUCH WEIGHT!!! WHAT HAPPENED!?!?! OH POOR YOU!!! :O

  • If you lost some weight, and grew some Elvis sideburns, there'd be no stopping you. You'd be the Godzilla of gaijin pimps.

  • You can lose rapid weight playing on Heavy Mode or Hard Mode Difficulty or Expert Mode in DDR and In the Groove!

  • I am rootin' for you!

  • 308! To 268, wow! Hope you achieve your goal!

  • sam your fat lose some weight (is this inspirational??)

  • Best of luck mate! I hope you achieve your goal.

  • I use to ware size 42 but now I'm size 38 (maybe 37). I lost that when I bought a bicycle and started bike riding. I use it now to get around some places since its cheaper and I use it instead of the bus to go to school. If I take the bus it would take me about and hour to get to school but with my bike I get there in less then 15 minutes. nice

  • More power to you, bra. Now if I could only cut out all of the beer I consume I could lose a good 30 pounds, easy!

  • good shit bro! kill it! man! shit! lookin like a sexy skinny man yo!

    ..Keep at it I was in Japan for 2 months and lost 10 pounds!! all that damn walkin up and down stairs and soba noodles

    Nippon FTW!

  • thats awesome sam! i weight jus about 10 punds less then you and i've planned on going to the gym in the fall, eating right, etc...looking forward to it! Goodluck, you'll do great, so will i hopfully.

  • i can tell you've lost weight and I'm sure you'll be able to lose all the rest that you want.

  • If you go back to your previous videos, and compare them to now, you can tell you've lost quite a bit of weight. You're looking good.

    Good luck with your new venture. You've got a good group of friends, so it shouldn't be too hard to find support outside of yourself.

    If it comes to it, you can always try to eat Cooney and absorb his skinniness.

  • Good luck!

    My diet is basic but it works...more water /more fruit and veg /more exercise /less sugar /less bread (only brown) /only low fat dairy products /no SNACKIN'

    I've lost 14b so far, not as good as 40, but I've only got 20b to go then I'm officialy not overweight hurrah!

    thanks for the video, my diet starts NOW!

  • Rogain :D

  • dried tiger penis

  • wow dude best of luck, my friends kinda chunky, and he's can't stick to a diet for shit so maybe you'll do better.

  • The best thing to do is just having the motivation to start a diet. If you have that you 're gonna get sexy ;) haha.

    When I started modeling I had to lose a lot of weight, and start getting muscular. Well, what I did was, watch one piece and get motivation from them lmao :P

  • good luck!!!

    i am on a similar goal too. but it wasnt public. I figured i would lose weight in japan just because i would be walking everywhere, but i wanted to get myself working on it for real first rather than just situation.

  • lol are u serious its easy to get japanese girls just by being foreign?

    Sam just how many times u pulled a japanese girl?

  • awesome calling girls "stuff" at 1:50. best of luck on the diet, and dude, i lost 20 lbs. when i was there, so you'll do it easy. btw, why are you topless (besides the obvious reasons)?

  • stuff indeed...its also fuckin hawt as bawls here...

  • Good luck sAm IN The J-LAnd ! =D

  • Best of luck Sam!

  • I saw someone do this, so I know it works. Drink 2 glasses of water before every meal. 1 glass after every snack. Only eat 1 big meal a day at about mid afternoon. Try it for a week. Hell, it could hurt. And they ate what ever for that one big meal. Walk, and swim if you can. Or just walk.

  • Good for you :D

  • or instead of walking around and whatnot. you could just exersice by having sex! i'd say its a good enough exercise

  • "ha...ha....ha...ladies please!...ha...the spirit is willing...but the flesh is bruised, and spongy...

  • Good luck Sam, as a current fatass, I definitely know what it is like to be big and in Japan, tho I was only over there a month (can't wait to get back) and ate crap like you, I lost a good bit of weight just from the daily walk to/from the station (especially near the beginning when I couldn't find the dang apartment and had to use my gps)

  • Oh, and I just had amazon send me the kindle version sample of the book so I can check it out, I can at least give it a try.

  • Damn Right ;D

  • Good on you mate, just don't give up on it, keep consistent and make it a strong habit.

    Coincidentally enough i just started changing my diet about a week ago, lost a couple of pounds and put it back on eating a cake i made lol. Though this video did remind me of the importance of being in shape.

    All the best!

  • diet and exercise is 99.9% mental..the .1% physical stuff is easy
