When Arg made his dramatic return to The Only Way Is Essex earlier this year, viewers were left stunned by his amazing new look.
After entering rehab and quitting his partying lifestyle, the pounds dropped off the aspiring singer and we were left with a new, healthier and much more slim-line Arg.
Speaking to a UK magazine, the 27-year-old said that he has found a new lease of life now that he’s ditched old habits.
He told Now: “I get up early in the morning and go to the gym regularly. I feel good about myself – when you train it brings out endorphins and it makes you feel good.”
He recalled the difficult period in his life before he turned his life around.
“I was 18 and a half stone, I’d been suspended from TOWIE and I’d lost Lydia.
“I looked in the mirror and hates what I saw. You can’t love anyone until you love yourself. I felt too fat to be loved.”
Arg is now back together with childhood sweetheart Lydia Bright, 25, and the couple have even spoken about marriage.
