James Argent gives fans a glimpse at 14 stone weight loss as he celebrates Tyson Fury's win

James Argent has given his fans a glimpse at his slimmer frame as he partied with Tyson Fury today.

The former TOWIE star, 34, and his pals joined the boxing legend as Sheesh in Essex this afternoon.

And the TV star ended up getting "stripped" by his friends as they partied the day away.

On his Instagram, Arg shared a video that was taken by his friends where he was topless - and looked noticeably slimmer.

He told his followers: "I popped to congratulate Tyson and I get stripped."

Arg has lost a total of 14 stone overall on his fitness journey - and he showed off his weight loss in the video, which was slyly taken by his friends.

Tyson has been celebrating well after his incredible win over Derek Whyte on Saturday night, by breaking out the bubbly at a TOWIE hotspot this afternoon.

Meanwhile, Arg - who has been struggling with binge-eating for years - has been flaunting his new physique after reaching 27 stone during the pandemic.

He underwent gastric sleeve surgery to control his weight.

He has since lost 14 stone and has been exercising and eating healthier.

James recently revealed he first found out about his eating disorder during his first rehab visit in 2014.

"When I actually went to rehab for the first time, I went there initially for my problems with drink and drugs or whatever, and after a few days I got put in the eating disorder unit," he explained.

Speaking to MailOnline, the star added: "They tried to teach me to do mindful eating instead of shoving it down, put your phone away, relax, chew your food plenty of times, let the meal last 20 minutes, don't rush your food so that's what I'm trying to do now."

During the peak of the coronavirus pandemic, James was binge-eating fast food and drinking a lot of fizzy drinks.

Doctors told the TV personality he had to 'lose weight or die' which caused Arg to turn his life around.

He then lost a lot of weight thanks to the fitted gastric sleeve and has been focusing on reaching a weight he's 'content' with.

Previously speaking about needing to gain weight, the reality star told The Sun : "This is the first time in my life that I like the way I look too - I don’t feel ugly anymore - I’m content and happy with my appearance.

"The only problem now is I’ve lost a little bit too much weight and I need to put on half a stone," he added.

"Everyone thinks it’s hilarious, we didn’t think we’d ever be in this situation but it’s one thing or another with me - that’s just me!"
