Dave Coulier revealed his shocking 45-pound weight loss transformation due to his brutal cancer treatments.
âI havenât posted in quite a while, and the last time I did some of you said that I look differently and I sound differently, and I do,â said Coulier, 66, in his Thursday Instagram Reel.
âWhat youâre seeing is the side effects of extensive radiation that I went through carcinoma in my throat.â
âI havenât been able to eat solid food in months, and so Iâve lost 45 pounds. Thatâs what youâre seeing, and itâs affected my ability to speak,â he explained.
âSome of you said that I sound differently. So yeah, youâre right on with what you are seeing and what you hearing.â
âBut just to recap, a year and a half ago I had non-Hodgkinâs lymphoma and I went through chemotherapy, and my hair is kind of growing back. And we got our PET scans back, and the prognosis looks good for both the carcinoma in my throat and the lymphoma. So weâre very pleased with all of that,â he added.
The âFull Houseâ alum revealed he was diagnosed with stage 3 non-Hodgkin lymphoma in 2024. By the following March, he revealed he was cancer-free.
However, he went on to share that he was diagnosed with HPV-related oropharyngeal tongue cancer just nine months later.
In February, he announced that he was in remission from both cancers after a two-year battle.
But, despite his âgood news,â Coulier admitted he feels âlike cancer is always in the rearview mirror behindâ him.
In April, Coulier opened up about how his âtoxicâ lifestyle led to his cancer diagnosis during an appearance on âThe Kelly Clarkson Show.â
âI wanted to know, âWhy did my lymphatic system crash?â And I realized as I went down the rabbit hole, everything in my life was toxic,â Coulier admitted. âMy toothpaste, my shampoo, the garbage bags, the toilet paper, everything, skin cream, everything.â
âI said, âI need to change this, but how do I do it?â Itâs a pretty daunting task to change your lifestyle like that. So I changed one thing. I replaced my toothpaste. And I thought, âI put that in my mouth every day, Iâm gonna start there,ââ he shared.
