Patrick Christys has opened up to fans about the latest fitness journey he’s been on, and why some viewers might have noticed a change in his appearance of late.
The Patrick Christys Tonight star is currently enjoying some well-earned downtime in the sun with his wife, Emily Carver, and their six-month-old son George, but that doesn’t mean Patrick has put exercise on the back burner.

“I’ve just got back from my morning run here on holiday. As you can see, there are worse places to go for a little jog, although it is already red hot, as you can tell.”
Paying tribute to his coach, Patrick went on: “Anyway, I’m doing a little video because I want to give a shout-out to John Patton Impact Fitness.
“A month and a half ago, I was a stone and a half heavier than I am now. I was completely lacking in motivation, and I was eating rubbish.
“I finish work at midnight most nights, so anything you do eat when you get home, it just sits on you, doesn’t it?

“And Emily, my beautiful wife, just had a little boy; he’s a few months old now. So look, there was a lot going on, and I had just packed the weight on, and I was going in the wrong direction.
“But John has motivated me. He’s given me a diet plan, he’s given me an exercise plan that works around my work schedule, which is certainly not easy.”
To hammer home the results, Patrick then made a promise to his fans. ” And look, if you don’t believe me, a couple of weeks after I get back off holiday, I will post some before and after pictures, just to prove it, okay?” he teased.
“Just to prove that I’m not lying. But anyway, hopefully most of you can see that, judging by how look a bit different on the telly,” he added.

Patrick then implored his followers: “But yeah, so do check him out, because for anyone out there who’s got a busy life, who’s struggling a little bit with their weight and all of that, he goes to John Patton Impact Fitness, he’ll be tagged below, and he can sort you out.”
The GB News star added in the accompanying caption: “Not perfect, but getting there.
“A stone and a half down, another half a stone to go. I want to thank @jonpattonimpactfitness for motivating me, giving me diet and exercise plans.
“Two weeks after I’m back off holiday, I’ll post before and after pics to prove I’m not lying!!” (sic)
