If you watched the SAG Awards this past Sunday, I’m sorry. I don’t know why people torture themselves like that. What a snooze fest, amiright?!? That’s just how I feel about award shows in general (except the Grammys). The SAGs were kind of the same as every other award show ever; boring speeches thanking people I don’t know or care about. But if there was one thing that stood out — it was that Alec Baldwin isn’t as fat as he used to be.

The 30 Rock boss man dropped thirty pounds! That’s pretty major. He says being diagnosed as pre-diabetic was a wake up call and he changed his ways. “I do Pilates and spin, but I don’t do as much yoga as I’d like,” he told Access Hollywood. “When we’re shooting and I can’t work out, I just have to eat less. So I’m very conscious of that. But sugar was the real killer for me — that was the problem.”

Besides obviously leading to weight gain, too much sugar can also:
• Cause headaches, including migraines
• Contribute to premature aging
• Suppress the immune system
• Cause a rapid rise of adrenaline, hyperactivity, anxiety, difficulty concentrating, and crankiness in children
• Weaken eyesight

Put the pixie stick down! For a Hollywood-approved body, cut back the sugar! *W*
