I mean, what effects did the fast food have on him? I missed the second half of it and just wanted to know.

Around day 20, Spurlock experiences heart palpitations. Consultation with his concerned general practitioner, Dr. Daryl Isaacs, reveals that Spurlock's liver is "pâté," and the doctor advises him to stop what he is doing immediately to avoid any serious heart problems. He compares Spurlock with the protagonist in the movie Leaving Las Vegas who deliberately drinks himself to death over a similar time period. Despite this warning, Spurlock decides to continue the experiment. He later stated in an interview that he was inspired to do so by his brother who, when Spurlock confided his doubts about continuing, responded, "Morgan, people eat this **** their whole lives, do you really think it'll kill you after 9 more days?"
Spurlock makes it to day 30 and achieves his goal. In thirty days, he "Supersized" his meals nine times along the way (five of which were in Texas, the state with the highest number of "fat cities" in the U.S.).[1] All three doctors are surprised at the degree of deterioration in Spurlock's health. One of them states that the irreversible damage done to his liver could cause a heart attack even if he lost all the weight gained during the experiment. He notes that he has eaten more McDonalds meals than an average American should eat in 8 years.

The movie was disgusting and immoral, but very telling about how bad the food at McDonald's is for the human body.

In the movie,
He was rolling down instead of walking by.
And then, at the end of two months,
He recovered his normal weight by eating healthy food again.

It took him about 14 months to get back in shape. His movie was financially successful. He is a movie production company today.
