NBC’s Carson Daly has been open about his ups and downs when it comes to weight loss over the years, as well as a weight gain for a very positive reason.

The Voice host had years where he looked quite trim. However, he put on some pounds in 2019 and was happy to find out why.

“Fun fact: I assumed recent weight gain was a side effect from an anti-anxiety drug I started,” he wrote on Twitter at the time, adding, “Turns out it’s just working. The calmer/happier me is in a better mood and appetite increases.”

With his decrease in anxiety, Carson told Today, “What happens is you end up celebrating life, which means you eat and drink like a king,” although he vowed to start hitting the gym to take off the excess pounds.

The Santa Monica, California, native reflected on gaining weight in 2019 after he started a new anti-anxiety medication that helped his mood.

When he asked his doctor if the drug made him put on the extra pounds, “She goes, ‘No, there’s not really a weight side effect. Officially, what’s happening is that for the past seven, eight months, you’re experiencing a new, calmer, less anxious version of yourself. Actually, it means the drug’s working,'” Carson said on Today. “She was right. When I look back, I found I have a whole new happiness and lease on life. I can do anything. I feel like Superman.”
