Now, Tayler Lautner has almost reached his goal of gaining 29 lbs. for the Twilight sequel, New Moon.

He has been working hard for 8 or 9 months, and he has put on about 26 pounds of muscle.
He's literally in the gym every single day for at least two hours a day., said the actor, 16.

"It's hard work, my motivation is basically my passion for the character of Jacob and the series. I want the fans to be proud of the movie, so I have to live up to Jacob."

Besides hitting the gym, he's trying to eat as much as possible. Basically he's supposed to eat everything he can and try to keep it lean. Lean meats and veggies.

Lautner will Return following weeks of questions about whether he could effectively portray his werewolf character, who grows a foot taller and looks 25 years old in the sequel. Most fans wanted Lautner back.

New Moon begins shooting later this year.
