So\u00a0many people who watched the Twilight<\/i> franchise have fallen in\u00a0love with the stories and characters, especially with Taylor Lautner. He\u00a0played werewolf Jacob Black in\u00a0all 5\u00a0Twilight saga movies, showing his hot, muscular body. But it\u00a0turns out that he\u00a0was under a\u00a0lot of\u00a0pressure, and now he\u00a0reveals what is\u00a0behind his look.<\/p>\n

There has been a\u00a0huge Before\/After<\/i> for him.<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

Taylor Lautner played the role of\u00a0Jacob Black in\u00a0the Twilight<\/i><\/a> franchise, and his physical modification for the role was well-known, as\u00a0he\u00a0underwent a\u00a0significant physical change to\u00a0portray the character\u2019s transformation from a\u00a0teenage boy to\u00a0a\u00a0werewolf.<\/p>\n

At\u00a0first, he\u00a0didn\u2019t realize that there would come a\u00a0time for him when his body image would cause problems.<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

After filming the Twilight Saga<\/i>, Taylor Lautner talked<\/a> how topics of\u00a0body image are often connected with women, \u201cbeing viewed as\u00a0having this unbelievable body\u201d was difficult for him. \u201cWhen I\u00a0was in\u00a0it, when\u00a0I was 16\u00a0through 20\u00a0years old, starring<\/a> in\u00a0this franchise where my\u00a0character is\u00a0known for taking his shirt off every other second, no, I\u00a0did not know that it\u00a0was affecting me\u00a0or\u00a0going to\u00a0affect me\u00a0in\u00a0the future with body image.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cBut now, looking back at\u00a0it, of\u00a0course, it\u00a0did, and of\u00a0course, it\u00a0was going\u00a0to.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u00a0took a\u00a0lot of\u00a0effort to\u00a0get Jacob Black\u2019s body.<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

The actor had to<\/a>\u00a0undergo an\u00a0incredible change from human to\u00a0wolf in\u00a0New Moon<\/i> to\u00a0play the part, turning from a\u00a0thin teen to\u00a0a\u00a0hot icon. He\u00a0said that his 3,200-calorie daily diet and 5\u00a0days per week of\u00a0exercise transformed him into a\u00a0werewolf.<\/p>\n

Lautner confessed<\/a> that the physical change had a\u00a0negative effect on\u00a0his body.<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

When recalling those times, Lautner admits<\/a> that the show was his \u201centire life.\u201d \u201cIn\u00a0the first movie, I\u00a0was 140\u00a0lbs., and in\u00a0New Moon,<\/i> I\u00a0was 175. So\u00a0yeah, that wasn\u2019t my\u00a0natural body. I\u00a0had to\u00a0work very hard for it\u00a0and very, very hard just to\u00a0maintain\u00a0it.\u201d<\/p>\n

After being \u201cforced to\u00a0be\u00a0in\u00a0a\u00a0gym multiple times a\u00a0day, 6\u00a0days a\u00a0week\u201d for years, according to\u00a0Lautner, he\u00a0began \u201crebelling against the gym\u201d and eventually stopped exercising at\u00a0all.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWhat happens when you don\u2019t want to\u00a0see a\u00a0gym? You start losing the 8-pack. I\u00a0started having a\u00a0more normal body,\u201d Lautner said. <\/p>\n

After he\u00a0stopped going to\u00a0the gym, his body changed, and fans soon started comparing side-by-side photos. This criticism, which continued<\/a> for years, eventually led to\u00a0a\u00a0decline in\u00a0Lautner\u2019s mental health.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

But the actor was able to\u00a0learn to\u00a0appreciate and love his body no\u00a0matter what shape it\u00a0was\u00a0in.<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t find happiness in\u00a0what you want your body to\u00a0look like,\u201d Lautner added. \u201cDon\u2019t think just because you lose the 20\u00a0lbs or\u00a0put on\u00a0the muscle, that you\u2019re going to\u00a0wake up\u00a0and look in\u00a0the mirror and all of\u00a0a\u00a0sudden be\u00a0happy. That\u2019s not where you should be\u00a0finding value.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
