John Goodman, Roseanne, 100 Pounds

John Goodman, who played Dan Conner on the TV show "Roseanne," was once almost 400 pounds. He quit drinking, stayed away from sugary foods, and modified the way he ate. That was when he took stock of the issue. Most importantly, he hired Mackie Shilstone, a fitness and health expert, to be his coach. Now that he has lost that extra 100 pounds, he is enjoying his new way of life with lean foods, protein shakes, and fresh fruits.
