Unusual: Benny Blanco reveals what he ate to lose weight
The successful music producer and husband of Selena Gomez decided to promote his new book in an original way: documenting five days in which he ate only pizza - and still managed to lose weight. "Feeling really f*cking good."
Benny Blanco (38), the music producer and husband of Selena Gomez (34), chose to promote his new book, F*ck Failure, through a strange experiment. In a video he posted on Saturday evening on his Instagram account, Blanco revealed how he decided to eat only pizza for five days, in an attempt to prove that it is possible to lose weight no matter what you eat - and it worked.
At the beginning of the video, Blanco is seen stepping on a scale showing 152.2 pounds (about 69 kg). Throughout the week, he documented himself eating every meal, including a dinner with Gomez, to which he arrived not with flowers, but with pizza. Alongside this, Blanco admitted that as the days went by, he began to despair: "I don't remember myself as a person. Like, what was life before pizza?" he said on the fifth day of the experiment. But despite this feeling, the producer claimed that he feels "really f*cking good."
At the end of the experiment, Blanco stepped on the scale again, which showed 147.5 pounds (about 67 kg). "I just lost 4.7 pounds (about two kg in five days) while eating pizza. Nothing matters, do whatever you want," he said. Blanco's new book is set to be released on September 15 and deals with the way to achieve dreams through, well, failure: "You want success? You have to fail better." We took note.
