Actor John Goodman has been ordered to lose 100 pounds this year or risk serious health problems, the World Entertainment News reports.

The 52-year-old actor gave up hard liquor last year and is now determined to lose his bulk, says the report.
"I'm getting too old to be fooling around like this. I used to lose like 65, 70 pounds between January and April and then gain it all back in the summer. I've just got to do it and keep it off," he was quoted as saying.
But he hopes a strict diet doesn't make him as crazy as quitting smoking did.
"I quit a year and a half ago and I turned into a werewolf. I went nuts. I've been smoking since I was in junior high school," he said.
