Michael Clarke Duncan lost 90 pounds after adopting a farm-style workout regime he created for himself. The star, 49, weighed in at 360 pounds a year ago when he decided it was time to tone down, so he bought himself a tractor tire and a sledgehammer.

The actor ran with the 100-pound tire strapped to his waist and used the sledgehammer to work his love handles.

He says, "I looked like I was nine months pregnant. It wasn't cute at all... I want females to see me as a sex symbol."

Now weighing in at a slimmer 270 pounds, the actor has achieved both his goal - he feels great and he recently earned a top 10 spot in urban magazine Heart & Soul's Beautiful People poll.
