Actor Matt Damon, known for his transformations for movies, gave important advice. He gave a name to the weight he thought was almost impossible to lose.
Matt is sure that you should not gain more than 40 pounds, even for iconic roles. This is what he said to his colleague Josh Harnett, who gained weight for the Oppenheimer film. It is worth appreciating Damon’s sense of humor. Harnett shared his advice after gaining weight.

“He said, ‘You’re going to spend the rest of your life trying to lose this weight, and it’s never going to come off. You’re just going to keep gaining this size. No matter how hard you try, it’s going to come back on.’” “And I was like, ‘Thank you, Matt.’ Thank you for telling me this at such a great time,” Harnett said on The Tonight Show.
Damon, meanwhile, gained 15 kg for the film “The Informant” (2009), reaching his normal weight. According to Matt, for the sake of the role he abused fatty foods and alcohol.
And in 1996, for his role in the film “Courage in War,” he lost 60 kilograms. The actor ran 20 kilometers every day and ate only chicken breast. The experiment almost cost Damon his life. The pancreas, adrenal glands, and heart were affected. He spent the lion’s share of the film fee on treatment.
