John Goodman flaunts impressive 90kg weight loss

John Goodman has stepped out on the red carpet for his TV show, showing off his incredible 90kg weight loss. 

The 70-year-old Hollywood legend attended the premiere of the third season of The Righteous Gemstones at the 62nd Monte-Carlo TV festival, showing off the impressive results of his health and fitness overhaul.

The actor looked pleased with his results as he walked the red carpet in a fitted suit jacket and beige trousers ahead of the festival, where he was also serving as jury president.

Goodman previously explained that he realised he needed to make changes after tipping the scales at his heaviest weight of 178kg.

The Roseanne star kickstarted his wellness journey in 2007, after he quit drinking and hired a personal trainer to help him reach his health goals. 

He went on to commit to a “Mediterranean-style eating plan”, which focuses on nutrient-rich whole foods and grains and has an emphasis on fresh produce and olive oil, and began exercising six days a week.

His fitness plan includes an elliptical bicycle and treadmill and a daily step count of 10,000-12,000 steps.

While on his dedicated health mission, he has been candid about the ups and downs of making a major lifestyle overhaul.

In 2010, he told People magazine, “It takes a lot of creative energy to sit on your a**e and figure out what you’re going to eat next.” 

“I wanted to live life better.”

“I just got tired, sick and tired of looking at myself. You’re shaving in the mirror and you don’t want to look at yourself. It gets dangerous.”
