"I saw myself in an episode and in the matter of two moments very close together, I thought, 'Oh my God, I'm getting fat. And then almost immediately I did something else and I thought, 'Holy crap, I've never seen myself funnier.' And I put the two together", Chris explained in an interview with Men's Health Magazine.

"I'd gone back and forth, lost weight for "Moneyball", got fat again, then trimmed down for "Zero Dark Thirty", then gained it all back again for Andy. That's when I saw Zero Dark Thirty and right after walking out I was like: "I'm going to get in shape and I'm never going to be fat again,"e explained.
