Taylor Lautner Reveals Secrets To Ripped 'New Moon' Bodyby Access Hollywood
July 17, 2009 LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Taylor Lautner finally transforms into a werewolf in the upcoming second installment of The Twilight Saga, "New Moon," and the actor revealed the work needed to transform his body into something werewolf-worthy started the day after he finished filming the first movie.
"As soon as I finished filming 'Twilight,' I knew I had to get to work right away; there could be no waiting involved. The day I finished 'Twilight,' I came home and started bulking up. For 'New Moon,' I'm 30 pounds heavier than I was in 'Twilight,'" he told Interview magazine's August issue.

The actor said initially he was working too hard to get the ripped werewolf body of his character, Jacob Black.
"I was in the gym five days a week, two hours a day. At one point, I was going seven days straight. I had put on a lot of weight, and then I started losing it drastically, so I was worried. It turned out I was overworking myself," he said. "My trainer told me that I couldn't break a sweat, because I was burning more calories than I was putting on."

The 17-year-old said one of his biggest challenges he faced while training was something most people work hard to curtail.
"The hardest thing for me was the eating. At one point I had to shove as much food in my body as possible to pack on calories. My trainer wanted me to do six meals a day and not go two hours without eating. If I would cheat on eating one day, I could tell, I'd drop a few pounds," he continued.
Despite the hurdles, all his hard work paid off. Taylor was asked back for the second movie and also got a reason to buy a new wardrobe.

"I grew out of a lot of my clothes," he told the mag. "I went from a men's small to a men's large."
And is Taylor now turning more heads on the street with his new physique?
"I don't know. I should pay more attention to that," he said. "I hope so."

EDWARD'S PEA COAT
''Everybody wants to know where his pea coat came from!'' exclaims the costumer. Unfortunately, it is a one-of-a-kind piece (er, sort of: three to four were made for filming purposes) which Chuck herself crafted after not being able to find the perfect one. ''We needed the right fit, [and] I couldn't find anything in the right shade of gray,'' she recalls. ''Catherine [Hardwicke, the director] is really big on back story for her characters and anything that can help that, even if it's in a texture or color of clothes.'' After considering ''probably 20 swatches,'' Chuck went with one from Mood Fabrics and based her final design on a combination of other styles of pea coats. In the end, his turned out as ''a classic shape with a modern twist.''

im in the devils playground
dont know anyone round here
i will try to stand my ground
and not let anyone sense my fear
cant confisgate a reality that is based on lies
i will not negociate with my pride
foolish as i was i am no longer that person
yes try to hold my gaze
my will wont lesson
and i am in the devils playground
i have my own toys
i try to not look around
to the erie noise
scrapping nails apon the pavement
and dried blood up on the walls
a smell that so nauseating
i feel i might fall
light headed i cant be
not in this place anyways
i walk further trying to find a way out of this place.
how did i get here where did i go wrong my morbid curisoty
of a unrealistic song.driven to a brink thats almost sickning
i cant find myself.a way out of the devils playground. my own personal hell
