John Goodman once weighed 400 pounds during his tenure on 'Roseanne'.
Goodman previously weighed 400 pounds during his tenure on Roseanne, which aired on ABC from 1988 to 1997.
But the Big Lebowski heavyweight has revealed he dropped 200 pounds in the last two decades after quitting drinking and entering rehab in 2007.
"It was 30 years of a disease that was taking its toll on everyone around me, and it had got to the point where, every time I did it, it was becoming more and more debilitating. It was life or death," Goodman said in 2012. "It was time to stop."

Goodman revealed he lost 200 pounds after quitting drinking and entering rehab in 2007.
The admitted yo-yo dieter said his recent grueling schedule – which at one point included the Roseanne reboot, The Conners – inspired him to stick to healthy habits.
"In the old days, I would take three months out, lose 60 or 70 pounds, and then reward myself with a six-pack of Bud or whatever and just go back to my old habits," he confessed in 2016.
"I'm getting to the age where I can't afford to sit still anymore. And it gives me the energy to work, 'cause work is very draining."
