Strictly Come Dancing star Dan Walker has revealed he’s already lost a ‘third of a stone’ in weight.
The BBC Breakfast presenter is paired with dance partner, Nadiya Bychkova, on the BBC One show.
And it appears that Dan is already being put through his paces.

The Strictly star opened up on their rehearsals on BBC Breakfast earlier today (September 22).

Dan asked: “What do you mean?”
Sally then responded: “Well, a little bit more tanned. And a little bit thinner!”
Dan, who recently visited the hospital after banging his head, was quick to take the compliment.

He added: “I haven’t had any tan – maybe it’s the head injury from last week!
“I have actually lost, with this dancing business, I’ve lost a third of a stone already.
“My trousers are a little bit looser in the waist-based area.”

The star shared a snap of himself and Sally on the famous red sofa.
Sitting up straight in the shot, Dan joked: “Working on my new dancey posture with @sallynugent on the #BBCbreakfast this morning.
“Also noticed that my trousers were a bit loosey-goosey. Turns out I’ve lost a third of a stone already dancing with
@NadiyaBychkova.”
Dan’s training injury
However, Dan’s journey hasn’t been completely smooth sailing on Strictly.
Last week, he was sent to hospital after banging his head on a window.
Thankfully, the star didn’t cause any serious damage and soon made his way home to rest.
