Real Bad
In fact, Tim’s drinking was so bad at one point, that he gained a serious amount of weight. During the trailer for his role in the Four Christmases film alongside Vince Vaughn, his daughters couldn’t believe how big he had gotten. McGraw weighed 250 pounds, thanks to his heavy drinking and drug abuse.
A Changing Man
Immediately after Hill’s ultimatum, Tim sought new avenues to fill the void of alcohol. In no way was he prepared to lose his family. McGraw stopped partying and even gave up carbs and sugar. He lost a staggering 40 pounds and even developed some topographical-map abs. To maintain his physique, he tours with Roger Yuan, a martial arts expert who trained even Daniel Craig for Skyfall and Henry Cavill for The Immortals. McGraw does afternoon workouts which help him “sort of build into the character by the time we hit the stage,” he says.
