Gogglebox star Jonathan Tapper sheds THREE STONE in just 12 weeks

He shot to fame by sitting on his sofa watching TV with his family for Channel 4 favourite Gogglebox.

But Jonathan Tapper, 51, has transformed his couch potato lifestyle, revealing his slimmed-down physique after losing three stone in just 12 weeks.

The chauffeur and father of two has told how he swapped takeaways and fast food for healthy eating and a strict fitness plan after being diagnosed with diabetes.  

The Gogglebox star, who shot to fame with wife Nikki and children Josh and Amy on the show, has dropped from 21st 3lbs to a much trimmer 18st 8lbs after following the musclefood.com Do The Unthinkable diet and exercise plan. 

He's seen proudly showing off his new physique in a series of shirtless photos, after losing 6 inches from his waist and building up his muscles. 

The dad of two, from North London, has battled with his weight for years and began piling on the pounds after struggling to fit exercise and regular meals into his busy day.

He'd enjoy fried breakfasts on the road during his work as a driver, and then gorge on high calorie service station sandwiches and multiple packets of crisps for lunch, consuming well over 3,000 calories a day.

'Before the family joined Gogglebox I worked in the food industry and after becoming a chauffeur, spend the bulk of my day sat behind the wheel getting no exercise. Neither job allowed me the time to get out of the car and head to the gym,' he explained.

'Filming for Gogglebox could take up to 12 hours a week and that was 12 hours that I was paid to sit around without moving.'
