The Chase’s Mark Labbett looks trim in jeans after 10-stone weight loss

The Chase star Mark Labbett has stepped out after his staggering 10-stone weight loss.

The master quizzer recently told how he is currently the lightest he’s been in 25 years, after he managed to get his weight under 20 stone.

He was spotted outside a hotel in Borehamwood, where he’s staying to film upcoming new episodes of the ITV quiz show.

Mark opted for jeans and a collared shirt, chasing the chill away with a hoodie, and looked like he was chowing down on a healthy snack.

He recently told The Sun : “This is the lightest I’ve been in 25 years.

“I’m now under 20 stone, and I am really feeling the difference, as well as seeing it.

“I’m now down to a 44-inch waist, my chest is 54 inches, while my neck measurements are down to 19 inches, which is fantastic for me and the top end of a normal man’s range.

“My knees really feel the difference. I will never be athletic again but I just move so much better for not carrying that extra weight.”

Thanks to a two-meal-a-day regimen and daily walks, the star has seen the weight fall off.

He was at his heaviest in 2003, at 29st, his final year as a teacher.

Mark added that he’s excited for the shops to reopen so he can buy a new wardrobe for his smaller frame – revealing that it’s been a long time since he’s been able to buy “off-the-peg.”

And he told that during his school days, his classmates had stuck him with “appalling” nicknames.

Mark was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in 2016, and started cutting back on his sugar intake.

Sharing before and after snaps on Instagram recently, Mark showed how loose his old trousers now are with his slimmer waist, fans flooding him with kind words and messages of support.

The Chase, meanwhile, looks to be getting back to filming with Mark’s presence in Borehamwood.

It’s hoped new episodes of The Chase will air soon

Fans have been querying when new episodes will hit our screens after ITV confirmed earlier this week that there wouldn’t be any new ones for a number of weeks.

Instead, they’ve opted to air re-runs from the vault.

*The Chase airs weeknights at 5pm on ITV.
