Viewers of the show wanted to know how he did it, and filled the comment section for requests to know what his secret is as he looks a world away from his Suits character.
"May I ask your secret for weight loss? You look great!" asked one, and Hoffman gladly replied with his tips and tricks.
We love it when people don't gatekeep.
The star answered "Intense intermittent fasting and keto diet. No alcohol."

"What a transformation!" raved one fan, while another defended: "I'm sorry… why is anyone surprised?? This is Rick F’n Hoffman we’re talking about here!! When has he not had all that SWAG??"
His former co-star Rafferty left some supportive emojis too, praising his new look.

"The harveyfication of louis needs to be taught at Harvard," joked one, as someone else agreed "Louis turning into Harvey!"
Another said simply: "Louis Fitt," as another marvelled: "Wow, I didn't recognise him for a sec!"
Hoffman previously he shared how he warned Meghan Markle about getting involved with Prince Harry.
Speaking on the Today show ahead her marriage, he recalled: "I had gotten the news early, and I was like, 'You got to be kidding me'. And it was like, both of us in the trailer like, 'Oh my. You're going - you're dating a prince?'"
He said he tried to give Markle some advice: "I was just like, 'Well, take it slow. Be careful. Don't let him hurt you'."
Suits carried on for two more series before ending in 2019 after she left, and even had a reunion, but Markle was nowhere to be seen.
Co-star Gina Torres confessed: "We don’t have her number. We just don’t."
She insisted there was no hard feelings: "She'll see, she'll watch. She'll be happy that we're here."
