After Eating 6 Chicken Breasts Everyday Rob McElhenney Faced the Harsh Truth of His 60 lbs Weight Gain For ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’
Rob McElhenney’s Fat Mac storyline in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia was one of the most memorable bits from the long-running sitcom. McElhenney underwent a drastic physical transformation for his role, gaining 60 pounds in a matter of weeks. However, McElhenney was in for a harsh truth once he achieved this near-impossible feat.
The actor later opened up about this weight gain transformation, sharing how he didn’t get the deserved recognition for the role. While McElhenney was casual and humorous in his tone about this, the fans of the show would be sad that his achievement was largely overlooked by the viewers.
