Anthony Hopkins said that he embarked on a rigorous diet plan in the past two years, causing him to lose around 75 pounds.

Hopkins, 73, said that he is in the best shape of his life, according to the New York Post.

Referring to himself as a “health nut,” Hopkins mainly attributes the weight loss due to exercising six days a week and living on 800 calories per day. 

“My wife’s no dictator, but she said I must stick to a regimen,” he said, referring to his spouse Stella Arroyave.

“So I’m in the gym six days a week, I power walk, live on 800 calories a day. No pasta. No seconds. A sandwich occasionally. Now I’m a health nut.”

Due to the change in his body, he said all his old clothes no longer fit him.

“I can’t get back into my wardrobe,” the Welsh-born actor said. “I gave it all away to some mission.”

Anthony Hopkins’ latest movie, You Will Meet a Tall Dark Stranger, which was written and directed by Woody Allen, is set for release on Wednesday September 21.
