Eric Andre Loses 40 lbs to Get Tremendous Match, Says It is Not Value It

Eric André has a brand new look after shedding 40 pounds, and while he’s opening up about all his sacrifices to get a ripped body … he’s less than thrilled with the process.

The comedian says he went from 213 pounds to 173 pounds, and less than 9% body fat over the span of 6 months! Impressive, no doubt, but Eric told GQ, it the changes he had to make weren’t worth the end result.

He’s definitely, at least partially, joking … saying things like, “There is a reason skinny people are bitches and fat people are jolly” — and adding, “Skinny people have f**king attitudes because they’re f**king starving.”

At one point he frankly said, “I say stay fat. If you’re fat or chubby, stay that way. I felt great … but it wasn’t worth cutting out French fries.”

So, why the hell did he go through with it? Eric says suffered through “boring” foods and cut out boozing with friends … so he could slim down for the new season of “The Eric André Show,” which premiered Sunday.

On his IG, he reflected on all the major diet and lifestyle changes he’s made … saying, “I’ll never do a body modification again! That shit was brutal for both season.”
