The soap star first showed off his impressive weight loss in March, but has been continuing to slim down while in lockdown as he kept up with his fitness routing at home.
Colson recently spoke about how his staggering weight loss will likely cause continuity issues on Coronation Street during filming.
The star joked he will have to wear a fat suit after claiming to have lost 10 stone during lockdown.
Colson told The Sun: ‘We are in direct continuity, but I’ve almost lost about ten stone since we left work so I’m not sure that [my hair] is going to be the biggest of their issues.

‘I might be wearing a wig and a fat suit when we go back. Now we go to a purple shampoo, which almost makes it a platinum sort of colour, which basically takes the ginger pigment out.
‘So the yellow-ness will go, and I will have a head of blonde hair, which I technically do now.’
Colson previously revealed he lost one and a half stone in December after he got food poisoning while holidaying in Thailand.
Speaking on his podcast Sofa Cinema Club – which he hosts with co-stars Jack P Shepherd and Ben Price, Colson said: ‘I was in Ko Lanta.

‘I was sat on the beach and the waiter came over and was like, “What would you like?” And I said, “I’ll have the prawns to start please.”
‘I had avoided seafood [on Ben’s advice] but I was sat on the beach and I was like, “How can you not have seafood on the beach?”
‘Well, anyway. I’m not doing that again. I’ve lost about a stone and a half.’

Colson said he was only able to eat a banana and three slices of toast in the week after eating the dodgy prawns.
Since then, the star has embarked on a fitness regime and has littered his Instagram with pictures of him in sports gear, and has of course adopted a much healthier eating plan than just eating toast.
