John Goodman’s Dramatic 200lb Weight Loss Leaves Him Unrecognizable as He Shines on the Red Carpet
When the name John Goodman is mentioned, most people instantly conjure the same image in their minds. Throughout his career, this 70-year-old actor has seemingly remained unchanged. Known for his unforgettable performances in iconic films like The Big Lebowski, Argo, and O Brother, Where Art Thou?, Goodman has become synonymous with larger-than-life characters who often lean towards the heavier side.
However, things have changed. If you’ve been following Goodman’s recent endeavors, you would know that he has been diligently shedding weight over the past few years, starting with a commitment he made in 2007.
Fast forward to the 62nd Monte Carlo TV Festival in Monaco this past weekend, and it’s evident that he has achieved his goal. The actor made an appearance at the event, sporting a cream chino and navy blazer ensemble on the red carpet.
What caught everyone’s attention was not just his outfit, but his transformed figure. After years of hard work, Goodman looked healthy and trim, a stark contrast to his previous appearance. Back in 2007, he had made a personal promise to himself to lose weight. Reports indicate that he quit drinking alcohol right away, but it wasn’t until he enlisted the help of a fitness trainer that he truly began to witness a significant difference in himself.
During an interview with Howard Stern in 2016, Goodman revealed, “I took it slow. I just wanted to change my lifestyle. It’s an ongoing process for the rest of my life. You look in the mirror every day and go, ‘I gotta deal with this the rest of the day, I gotta deal with this schmuck?’”
At his heaviest, Goodman weighed nearly 400 pounds, but today he’s far from that figure. According to the MailOnline, the 70-year-old actor has embraced a “Mediterranean-style eating plan,” focusing on fish, nuts, olive oil, vegetables, and fruit.
In addition to his improved diet, the Argo star exercises six days a week and strives to walk between 10,000 to 12,000 steps every day.
Seeing Goodman’s transformation at the weekend was truly remarkable. It’s an inspiring journey he has embarked upon. If you’re equally impressed by his weight loss accomplishments, feel free to share this article on Facebook.
