We do not often come across too many celebrities who are downright obese but John Goodman is an exception. He actually weighed almost 400lbs! Of course, he played a ‘big guy’ in most of his roles and made a living out of it, but it was disastrous on his health. So, he started a fitness regime and lost over 100 pounds. He is fitter and far healthier now.
