Vinny Guadagnini showed off his chiseled abs in a series of Instagram photos. The "Jersey Shore" star told his Twitter followers that he was doing a 30-day cleanse because he wanted to get in shape and lose some weight, E! News reports.
Even though the 25-year-old reality star tweeted about how it was a rough start, he was clearly pleased with the results three weeks into the detox and decided to share a couple before and after pictures on Instagram.
"#transformationtuesday... 3 week cleanse!" he captioned some of the shots.
In some of the others he contributed his flatter stomach to diet, exercise and lifting. This isn't the first time Guadagnini has started a diet. Back in March he asked his followers to help him stay on track and avoid junk food. Even though the MTV star didn't give any specifics about what he's doing to shed the weight his costar, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi told US Weekly exactly how she lost 42 pounds after giving birth to her son, Lorenzo.
Snooki said she initially started losing weight once she started breastfeeding her baby. Afterwards she began a 1,3000-calorie a day diet and started hitting the gym four days a week.
She said her decision to slim down was for her own personal reasons but also because she wanted to show her fiancé Jionni LaValle that she could be "a hot mom."
"I lost the first 20 [pounds] in two months, just from breastfeeding. And then right when I was able to work out - after six weeks - I went into the gym with a new trainer Anthony Michael," she told the magazine. "I was so excited because I hadn't worked out in six months. When I got there, I was like 'Let's do this!'"
She said getting back into fitness wasn't that difficult for her and she is definitely pleased with her progress.
"I feel great. I have a lot of energy because I work out so much and the endorphins put me in a good mood," she said. "And when you're skinnier, you feel so much better about yourself."
