I can just somehow squeeze my corpulent self into a much slimmer "Zip" archive?Sorry, it's like trying to compress a .jpg. You are stored at the optimum compression. Further compression results in a larger file size. ;>)

I've tried to reduce myself on a number of occasions, but I keep encountering a loss of resolution.

.jpgs can be compressed...it just starts taking more and more proccessing power, and varying algorithms. You could theorhetically compress down to a single bit and a set of decompression instructions...it's merely impractical. :)
