“I went to the doctor and he said ‘You know those high blood sugar numbers you’ve been dealing with since you were 36? Well, you’ve graduated! You’ve got type 2 diabetes, young man,’” said Hanks.

He told Letterman that his doctor informed him that if Hanks could drop back down to his high school weight, he’d be “completely healthy” and “not have Type 2 diabetes” anymore.

Hanks told the physician, “Well, I’m gonna have Type 2 diabetes, because there is no way I can weigh as much as I did in high school… I weighed 96 pounds in high school.”
