John Goodman Says 200-Pound Weight-Loss Transformation Left Him 'Messed Up'
The 'Roseanne' star has lost more than 200 pounds since 2007 through diet and exercise, but says the dramatic change hasn't come without a cost.
John Goodman, who has shed more than 200 pounds since beginning his health journey in 2007, says the transformation has left his body feeling "messed up" even as he's maintained the weight loss into his 70s.
The Roseanne star first showed off the full extent of his transformation at the Los Angeles premiere of Smurfs, drawing attention for how dramatically his frame had changed from a reported starting weight of roughly 400 pounds. He has credited a Mediterranean-style diet, cutting out alcohol and regular walking, though he has not detailed every element of his routine publicly.
Goodman has spoken about the toll of carrying excess weight for decades in past interviews, and his latest comments suggest the physical adjustment to his new frame remains an ongoing process.
