'I might go back to being fat': Chris Pratt reveals he will likely indulge in pizza after the 'movie star stuff is over' as he poses for Men's Health
He got into body builder shape to take the lead role in 2014's Guardians Of The Galaxy. When that movie became a surprise blockbuster, Chris Pratt was inspired to stay trim.
But during his interview with the July issue of Men's Health, the 36-year-old Jurassic World star said he will most likely not always be ripped.
'Everyone should know when the movie star stuff is over, I might go back to being the fat guy,' the husband of Anna Faris confessed.

Pratt then explained he just loves food too much.
'My wife wants a pizza oven—she's going to learn how to bake bread, and I'm going to eat it,' the A-lister, who is rumoured to be the big screen's next Indiana Jones, announced.
'I love the health benefits of exercising, and I have a kid now. By exercising, you really can add 20, 30 years to your life.'

'But you gotta live too, so hopefully I'll find a nice balance.'
When his career began, he had at least 30 pounds more on him than he does today.
Pratt relied on his sense of humor and gifted comedic timing to land roles on TV shows like Parks And Recreation.
But the Minnesota native knew he needed to change.

He did it: One year later his Guardians film hit theaters and the star was praised for his new physique
'It nagged me when I wasn't physically fit,' the Lego Movie star told the monthly. 'It was just another thing on my to-do list that I wasn't capable of getting done.'
He got in top shape to star with Jessica Chastain in 2012's Zero Dark Thirty.
But then afterwards he put the weight back on.

'I was like, "I feel kind of s***** about myself right now." I knew I had to get back on a path to becoming fit again, that I was going to make a splash when I walked into a room with a casting director from then on,' he added.
And now that he is svelte, he says he's happy he has been a good influence on others.
'I can tell that people are motivated by my transformations, and that feels really good,' the Delivery Man star said.

The Hollywood fixture then said, 'As an actor, I can't have proper mental prep without proper physical prep. Even though I knew it deep inside, it look me a long time to realize how getting physically sharp helps me get ready for other things in my life.'
On the cover, Chris poses in a light blue tank top, showing off his sculpted arms. The Bride Wars standout also has on a pair of worn-in jeans. His wedding band from Faris can be seen on his left hand.
Inside, the funnyman poses with a sand dinosaur as he wears a red striped tank top and blue shorts. He puts his hands out just like the T-Rex did.
Pratt is currently filming The Magnificent Seven with Denzel Washington and Ethan Hawke. The film is about seven gun men in the old West that gradually come together to help a poor village against thieves.
