The Aftermath of the Josh Peck Weight Loss

There have been some who claimed there was more to the Josh Peck weight loss than diet and exercise, similar to another celebrity’s pronounced weight loss. But the simple facts are that Josh made a concerted effort to lose the weight. To that end, he hired a personal trainer, and through a regimen of karate, yoga, a healthier diet and the increased metabolism that comes with adolescence, he had lost 40 pounds after Mean Creek wrapped. And he has worked to lose even more since then.
Consequently, in fact, Josh looks like a totally different person than the heavy kid that many viewers of his earlier work may remember. Some may think that this may be a negative aspect of his weight loss, but he is looking forward to portraying more diverse roles from him because of his new and healthier look and lifestyle. He has also done a lot of work as a voice actor for many massive animated films, which has attracted new fans.
Josh started out doing standup comedy in nightclubs in New York city at a young age. Growing up, he would often rely on his wit to defend himself against comments about his weight. “If I thought a kid was going to make fun of me, I might make fun of myself first,” says Peck, “I immediately went to comedy as my defense.”
So now that Josh has lost the weight, does he regret losing his old identity? “I embrace the heaviness for everything that I can get out of it, like some of the amazing heavy actors before me: John Candy, (John) Belushi and Fatty Arbuckle,” he says. “But I want to get parts that are of a broader range — no pun intended.” It sounds like the Josh Peck weight loss is here to stay.
