Louis C.K. has built an entire career on examining his fraught relationship with junk food and lackadaisical approach toward fitness in general, so it's with some sadness that we see this photo, taken by Javier Romero this morning near Houston and Broadway, of a fitter, exercise-embracing Louis riding a Citi Bike. While we are thrilled that the comedian now stands a more reasonable chance of not dropping dead at 50, part of us misses the old Louis, the guy who lets ice cream dribble out of his face as he lays despondently in bed.
Romero, who took the photo, told us he briefly engaged C.K. in a conversation about his camera, which is slung over his Cinnabon-thickened frame. Goodbye, Fat Louis. We will miss your heady analysis of your nightmarish digestive problems.
