"DeNiro lost x lbs. for Raging Bull. Whoopee."

Actually, I believe that he gained the weight for Raging Bull. But the real point is that gaining or loosing weight quickly is is not insignificant. How many people have difficulty loosing weight? Some never do loose the weight. Consider, too, that an actor or actress cannot film another film which requires a more slender physique until the weight is taken off. This is particularly significant for an actress such as Renee Zellweger. I am not a big fan of her's, but she cannot loose the weight she gained for the Bridget Jones' films overnight, and most of her roles require her to be slender, which means that other roles are on hold until the weight is off. And loosing weight requires discipline, particularly when you do not have months to either take off or gain the weight. I am not sure the Jenny Craig diet provides the results the actor needs in such a short period of time. That requires disclipline most of us do not have.
