Jonah Hill – 40 Pounds
Popular actor Jonah Hill is known for his bubbly personality and comedic timing. But when he had seemed to gain a dangerous amount of weight, his doctor suggested a gastric sleeve surgery. Hill decided not to opt for the $23,000 procedure – saving his credit, no doubt – and chose to loose weight the traditional way.
He hired a nutritionist who helped him follow a strict diet plan and took up physical activities such as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which he would train at for four to five times a week. Talking about his 40 pound weight loss in an interview, the comedian said, “At 35, I try and get over the stuff that made me feel weak and insecure as a teenager.”
