Charles Barkley admitted that his weight had gotten out of hand and turned to Weight Watchers to try to lose weight.
“I’ve always joked and complained about my home state of Alabama being fat,” Barkley, the studio analyst for Turner Network Television’s NBA coverage, told Page 2 a few months ago. “Well, I forgot that I was fat.”
