He has been flaunting 14kg weight-loss over the past eight weeks weeks after being named a new ambassador for Jenny Craig.

Appearing on Sunrise to promote his new ambassador gig this Tuesday, the former AFL star admitted that he decided to take control of his weight after gazing at himself shirtless in the mirror earlier this year.

‘I walked past [my partner] Alex and I had no top and I was going to the shower and I said, ‘jeez I’m on!’ and she said, ‘have a look at yourself mate! I think you’re not.”
‘And I looked in the mirror and I looked like I was pregnant,’ he chuckled.
Brendan also admitted that early-morning starts working as a breakfast radio host had caused him to pack on the weight as he struggled to resist the temptation of catered meals.
