The 48-year-old comedian returned to Channel 4 to host the 13th series of The Great British Bake Off, alongside Noel Fielding, reports Wales Online. After making his weight loss journey very public, Matt spoke often about how he swapped his unhealthy lifestyle throughout lockdown after he piled the pounds on while everything was closed.
Matt replied to a praising tweet from Lord Alan Sugar, stating he decided to undergo a new change after he "saw [himself] on telly and thought '[He] can barely fit on the screen". Viewers flocked to social media to discuss Matt's physical change.

One Twitter user wrote: "Bloody hell, Matt Lucas has lost weight."
Another added: "You look amazing. You’ve lost so much weight (although you always looked good to me) what is your secret?
"I hope you aren’t stressed or upset."
And a third commented: "Just catching up on last night’s #GBBO (no spoilers please). Just wanted to say - you look bloomin’ marvellous."
Another added: "Why are people b******* about Matt Lucas losing weight? He looks great."
Matt previously revealed that his weight journey began with his "personal trainer extraordinaire", in the form of housemate Jamie Barnard. As a personal trainer, Jamie zeroes in on how physical exercise has a positive impact on mental health, and reduces stress and anxiety.
Jamie's website reads: "PMPT is all about reaping the positive benefits that exercise has on our mental state."
The Great British Bake Off continues next Tuesday, September 20 on Channel 4 at 8pm.
