Actor John Goodman has lost almost 100 kilos | Stars

entertainment">Goodman is best known to the general public for his role as Dan Conner in the hit sitcom Roseanne. The actor played Roseanne Barr’s fictional husband from 1988 to 1997, returning in 2018 for the series’ reboot. But the difference with more than thirty years ago is large, almost a hundred kilos.

entertainment">And that is the result of years of hard work. In a 2010 interview with David Letterman, he admitted that he weighed 180 pounds. But the actor was determined to make short work of that. Seven years later he said to ABC News: “I used to take a three-month break, lose about thirty pounds, and then reward myself with a six-pack or whatever and just go back to my old habits. But this time I wanted to do it differently. I am getting to an age where I can no longer afford to sit still.”

Personal trainer

entertainment">According to Goodman, it was “just a matter of portion control.” “Then I said to myself, ‘I don’t need it.’ But in the meantime I just shoved everything in my mouth.” He therefore hired a personal trainer who encouraged him to exercise six times a week. Goodman also bought fitness equipment and was ‘conscious’ about exercise and food.

entertainment">But that wasn’t the only change. In 2007, the cult hero decided to stop drinking alcohol. “I had to receive an Emmy. But I missed the rehearsal because I was drunk. And by the time it was Sunday morning, I was shaking. I was still drunk, but I was still shaking.”

entertainment">Goodman knew it couldn’t go on like this, so he called his wife. He was admitted to a clinic and decided to kick the habit.
