Clerks director Kevin Smith recently had a heart attack that could have potentially ended his life. As a result, he’s been diligent about losing weight to stay healthy.

Kevin said in his “Hollywood Babble-On” podcast that his doctor ordered him to lose 50 pounds ASAP. In just one month since his hospitalization, he lost 20 pounds! He swears by magician Penn Jillette’s diet lined out in Presto!: How I Made Over 100 Pounds Disappear.

The Blast says that the diet starts off with a strict potato-only two weeks. Afterwards, more foods are slowly added to the diet.

Kevin also dropped animal byproducts, much to the delight of his vegan daughter. However, he admitted:

“This doesn’t come from a personal philosophy, this comes from an ‘I have to.’”

Check out Kevin’s weight loss below. He looks great!

My new jersey commemorating my life & death battle with arch nemesis, The Widow-Maker! This open-heart crest, drawn by @supergirlcw storyboard artist @jeremysimser, was a gift from sweet storyteller @etcarrasco and the @supergirlwriters in the show’s writing room. The card read “A crest to commemorate your big win against the deadliest of foes, the wrathful Widow-Maker. We could’ve made you the man with the Kryptonite heart, but this wasn’t your Kryptonite. We could’ve given you an Arc Reactor, but that’s the competition. And anyway, the best part about you is your heart’s always your own. Wear it on your sleeve, or in this case, smack dab in the center of your jersey. – The Supergirl Writers” Thank you, my Super wordsmiths! I believe, in this jersey, a man can fly! #KevinSmith #supergirl #supergirlwriters
