The 71-year-old actor previously revealed to Rolling Stone he had lost more than 200 pounds since he first embarked on his health journey in 2007.

On Tuesday, the Emmy Award winner showed off his fit physique while strolling through the airport with his wife of 35 years, Anna Beth.

In a 2023 interview with Rolling Stone, Goodman opened up about how he maintains his weight loss after returning to work full-time following the COVID-19 pandemic.

“That was just getting out and walking the dogs,” he told the outlet. “I was boxing up until then, and I haven’t been able to do that since COVID because I’m lazy.

“I haven’t been exercising, but I’m going to start a routine again this summer where I can get some stuff done,” he continued. “I’ve just let everything go just because I haven’t had the energy because of the jobs.”


In addition to his role on the hit “Roseanne” spinoff, “The Conners,” Goodman also stars in the black comedy crime series “The Righteous Gemstones.”

Goodman has previously said he once weighed almost 400 pounds.

The Missouri native told the outlet that he has enjoyed boxing since picking up the sport years ago but has steered away from sparring so far.

“Nobody’s going to get hurt, but it’s just hitting the mitts and trying to learn,” he said. “I never got good enough where I would trust myself to spar because once I get whacked in the face, I don’t know if I wouldn’t lose it.

“But someday I’d like to get that far advanced. But it’s usually just an hour, hour and a half of hitting the mitts, hitting the bags, learning footwork. It’s great.”

Goodman, who once weighed almost 400 pounds, previously discussed his dramatic slim-down in a 2016 interview with ABC News.

He explained how he was able to begin losing the weight, saying, “I just stopped eating all the time. I’d have a handful of food and it’d go to my mouth. I was just eating all the time. I was just eating

alcoholically.”
