Mrs Brown’s Boys star Danny O’Carroll has revealed that he has lost just over a stone in weight in 37 days – but insisted he had done “nothing special”.
The actor, 37, took to Twitter to share a before and after image of himself at his start weight of 14.02st and then at his current weight of 13.01st.
The star, who plays Buster in the BBC sitcom, could be seen holding his shirt up as he proudly showed off a flatter stomach and noticeably slimmer face.
He told his followers: “Lost over a stone in 37 days. I’m f***ing delighted… and on we go.”

But he insisted he had done “nothing special” to reach his new weight when quizzed by one of his followers.
Danny told them: “I run 5 to 8k every day on a treadmill. I don’t get off ’til I hit my 10,000 steps on Fitbit.
“The quicker I run the quicker I get off and then I do a dumbbell workout for as long as I feel like. I count my calories on the MyFitnessPal app. Nothing special I’m just determined.”

Fans quickly rallied around him to show their support and shared words of encouragement with him.
One said: “Do not stop now. Absolutely amazing keep it up.”
Another replied: “You look amazing! The hard work’s been worth it. I wish I had your determination.”
A third tweeted: “Way to go! It’s not easy but you’re crushing it!”
Someone else said: “Well done! You should be extremely proud of yourself.”

While a fifth, noticing a similar outfit in the before and after shots, joked: “Did you not change clothes for 37 days? Great achievement, keep her lit.”
Danny has been sharing his progress on his Twitter account recently with his 79,700 followers.
The actor is known for playing Buster Brady in Mrs Brown’s Boys, alongside his dad Brendan O’Carroll who plays the titular character, Agnes Brown.
Buster is the friend of Dermot Brown (played by Paddy Houlihan in the BBC series) – a criminal who is almost always seen in a baseball cap, tracksuits and white trainers.
His clothes often have security tags still attached, suggesting that they’re actually stolen.
In the show, he has been seen to be in love with Cathy (Jennifer Gibney), though the feelings aren’t reciprocated.
In real life, Danny is married to Amanda and they have two sons at home.
