Alec Baldwin Reveals Secret Diet Behind Shedding 25 Pounds for Blue Jasmine: ‘No Pasta, No Sugar…’

by

In a recent episode of The Baldwins (aired on April 13), Alec Baldwin revealed the significant weight loss transformation he undertook for the 2013 film, Blue Jasmine. The 67-year-old actor shared that achieving this change was challenging despite being relatively straightforward. To achieve a fit appearance on screen, he had to eliminate pasta, potatoes, sweets, and sugar from his diet.

He mentioned that there wasn’t any pasta, potatoes, candy, or sugar in his diet, which likely resulted in a 25-pound weight loss. Although he appears slimmer in the movie compared to others, he admitted to having barbecue sauce in his hair during filming.

In the show, Alec Baldwin was caught practicing yoga at home alongside his wife Hilaria Baldwin. Interestingly, Hilaria shared that exercise isn’t really something Alec embraces wholeheartedly. She explained that although Alec has attended a handful of yoga classes and fitness sessions with her over the past 13 years, he doesn’t adhere to a regular workout regimen.

As the actor was being assisted with stretching exercises, his spouse expressed concern that he carries emotional tension in his shoulders. In response, he pondered over how the tumultuous events of the past year had significantly affected both his psychological and physiological well-being. This was a reference to the legal troubles stemming from the unintentional shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the Rust film set in October 2021. Eventually, those charges were dismissed by a judge during a July 2024 court trial.

He shared that it severely impacted his health in a detrimental manner, and he was noticeably different from before. He went on to describe experiencing discomfort in various areas of his body and noticing a marked decrease in his energy, which was a sharp change compared to how he felt previously.

Baldwin went on to explain that he led a healthy lifestyle until reaching the age of 40, but once engrossed in work and family matters, he neglected it. He found it strange, given his wife Hilaria’s physical fitness, to feel less robust himself as he’s started noticing a decrease in his own stamina and agility. The actor now emphasizes the importance of focusing on his health above all else.
