Chris Noth, the infamous Mr. Big on Sex and the City (SATC) revealed to US Magazine that he shaped up for the latest SATC movie that is currently filming in NYC.  The 54-year-old said he went to Ilha Grande, Brazil where there is a resort that gets you into shape.  I’m guessing it’s like fat camp for rich people.  He said,

“Usually it’s about going to a trainer and all that but [the resort has] a very holistic approach. But I needed to bring my body into fitness — so I went for nine days.  It was a total vegetarian diet. Basically, you spend all day doing yoga, hiking, kayaking, eating vegetarian food, no coffee, no alcohol, no meat.”

Noth went on to say that the idea at the resort is to get cleansed but not to starve.  In addition, he said he’s never been one for yoga so it was a lot of hard work.  At the resort they practiced basic Hatha yoga.  Clients also do painting while there, so it’s obviously a very holistic approach to cleansing and weight loss where the mind, body and spirt are all nurtured.

Now that Noth is in shape he has to keep it off and for him, hanging out at restaurants can be difficult.  He said,

“The only problem is the upkeep of it. Restaurant portions are way too big. And you realize everything around you is basically bad for you,” he says. “It’s a process.”
