doesn't look like the same person.

1/2 of his appeal was his weight and antics due to said weight. i doubt he can make the same type of career for his thin self that his fat self had.

Holy shit that is a lot of weight he lost. He looks completely different. I'd say it would probably effect his career just because of the type of character he normally plays but who knows.

My sentiments as well.
Couldn't believe it when I saw him standing next to Kevin Love or maybe he lost the lbs for a role or something.

Good for him. I think his career will survive. He writes comedy too, so if he gets less acting gigs because of his weight, he can always fall back to writing.

Also, this just shows what getting really fat can do to you. He lost all the weight, he is only 27, but wow he looks like he is 40 in that pic. Take care of yourself early and often.

+1. He's going to be in show business for a while, even if he doesn't act much going forward.

He looks sick in that picture. I wonder if it was a healthy weight loss or a quick cut.

I don't think he looks sick at all. He just looks thinner.

Newman from Seinfeld lost a lot of weight as well, after he lost it, he said he couldn't get another gig. Hope thats not the same for Hill.

Dont think he looks ill, but does look tired/older than he should look.

Newman is Wayne Knight correct? I just saw him on Hot in Cleveland and he was big. Guess he could have been bigger before but can't recall how big he was in anything else.

As for Jonah maybe he is losing for a role in a flick. It may hurt his career if it was just for health reasons but I guess it's more important to be healthy.

Yes I meant physically and I remember him in Jurassic Park now. He was definitely bigger then.

Maybe he gained it back to get acting jobs again.

Must have. I saw on IMDB where his doctor told him that he was approaching morbid obesity so he dropped from 327 to 210 but he definitely goes more than 210 now. I'd guess 250 or so. He is a shorter guy also.
