Richard Karn looks slimmer than ever after embarking on a weight loss challenge with his wife Tudi Roche. The sitcom star disclosed the strict diet that helped realign his body and made him lose up to 30 lbs in the process. The exercise lasted only six weeks, but Richard Karn’s new look is proof that it worked.
He told Fox News Digital that the weight loss program was also effective for the mind, as it helped reprogram what he would normally eat. He recalled having access to a variety of food on the set of Home Improvement, where he played Al Borland.
How did Richard Karn achieve his weight loss?
Richard Karn arrived at his 30 lbs weight loss by eliminating carbs from his diet and consuming only meat and vegetables for six weeks straight. He admitted that he ate less than usual, and his body readjusted to the new food portions with time.
He also emphasized the importance of moderate eating, noting that it is wiser to have just a bite of dessert instead of five servings. Being on the set of Home Improvement meant having so much to eat, that Richard Karn had to be intentional about refusing treats.
He is struggling to maintain his weight loss
Despite the diet change, Richard Karn is experiencing difficulty maintaining his new weight due to some cravings. He admitted to feeling too thin, even though his doctor prefers his new weight. The 68-year-old’s appearance became a topic on social media after he was spotted in Los Angeles weeks ago.
Fans commended his efforts at achieving a healthy weight, while some accused him of using the popular semaglutide medication Ozempic. “A diet of semaglutide injections?” a troll teased, while another came to the star’s defense, saying it did not matter. “Maybe. And if so, who cares,” they asked.
