I’M A Celeb fans were all left saying the same thing tonight about Chris Moyles after he revealed how he dropped 5st
The DJ, 48, tonight joined the other contestants in the main camp, and opened up about his huge weight loss.
Chris is settling into life in the jungle, and talked about why he decided to shed the pounds.
Speaking to his fellow I’m A Celebrity campmates, he first talked about his past food shame, and admitted: “I once bought a microwavable kebab.”
Owen then said: “Come on, you’re better than that!”
To which Chris candidly replied: “From what I remember it tasted alright. But back then I was eating all sorts of crap.”
He added: “I didn’t necessarily eat a lot but what I did eat was all bad. All bad.”
Asked by Charlene what turned things around, he said: “A mixture of things. I climbed Kili [Mount Kilimanjaro].
“I was 17.5stone at Christmas and we were climbing in March. I got down to 16 [before we went].
“Climbed Kili and lost a stone in a week. I sat at 15 [stone] for ages and I had a trainer, and one day I just went, ‘It’s a waste of time this training, I’m not losing any weight’ and he just barked at me, ‘That’s because your diet’s s***!’
“So we had a big chat… I fell down to 12 stone really quickly. 10 years ago [that was].”
But fans poked fun at this revelation, with one saying: “chris moyles when he hasn’t mentioned his weight loss in 5 minutes.”
While this one tweeted: “Good on Chris for the weight loss, but is this all were going to hear from him?”
Another said: “Did you know Chris Moyles use to be fat? I don’t think he’s mentioned it yet.”
The Radio X presenter was motivated to shed the pounds after admitting he feared he’d die if he kept up his unhealthy lifestyle.
“I’m getting older. If I don’t keep fit I will be dead by the time I am 50,” he said.
