(Dec. 10) -- Filmmaker Michael Moore is getting a jump on his New Year's resolution by checking himself into a luxury weight-loss camp in Florida.

A fellow patron of the Pritikin Longevity Center and Spa told The Daily Caller that Moore turned up at the $4,500-a-week camp in Miami last month. The liberal filmmaker has been there before and told the Chicago Tribune in 2007 that the camp is where he learned to incorporate more fiber into his diet.

Michael Moore checked into a $4,500-a-week camp for weight loss in Miami last month.

An unnamed fellow camper said Moore "didn't look like he wanted to talk" with other weight-loss hopefuls there. "But he sure was fat, even fatter than he looks on TV, like he'd gained a hundred pounds," the unnamed source said, adding that Moore had a private trainer there.

Moore, 56, is known for his acerbic documentaries like "Fahrenheit 9/11" and "Sicko."

An e-mail request by AOL News to his publicist was not immediately returned for comment.
