Nickelodeon star Josh Peck says he lost weight because he 'wanted to kiss a girl'

Josh Peck has spoken candidly about having struggled with his weight when he was younger, with him admitting that he had been too uncomfortable to leave his house at times.

The actor, 35, is best known for his role in the Nickelodeon sitcom Drake & Josh from 2004 to 2007 - having played the title character Josh Nichols in the popular TV show.

During that period, he struggled with his weight and has referred to himself as having been "chubby" as a teenager - though he has since lost a considerable amount of weight.
