Private Life<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

He was also in a relationship with Australian singer-songwriter, musician and actress Delta Goodrem from 2004-2011. Irish Model Vogue Williams got married to him in 2012 but separated in 2017.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Schedule<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Due to his hectic schedule, irregular eating hours, frequent outside food, and frequent traveling, he started\u00a0<\/span>putting on a few pounds<\/span><\/strong>. He has worked as a judge on Australia\u2019s got talent, was a presenter in Football Superstar, guest judge on Australian Idol and has also appeared as a contestant on shows like Stepping Out, Get your act together, The Jump, Dancing on Ice to name a few.<\/span><\/p>\n

Long shooting schedules for these shows soon led to an\u00a0<\/span>unhealthy lifestyle<\/span><\/strong>. Its then that he decided that he had to\u00a0<\/span>lose weight<\/span><\/strong>. Not just for himself, but for his career and for his children as well. At 39 years of age, the hit-maker lost 7 pounds in just 4 weeks and impressed his fans.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not very uncommon for celebrities working in reality TV shows that require\u00a0<\/span>physical activity<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0like dancing or skating or anything else to lose weight. Similarly, when he got involved in TV shows like Strictly come Dancing and Dancing on ice, his physical activity increased.<\/span><\/p>\n

He, along with the other contestants, took part in hours of hard training for this show which helped him melt those extra pounds away from his body.

He got a lot of praise for his work, and the fans loved his new avatar.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Journey<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Alongside his\u00a0<\/span>fitness regime<\/span><\/strong>, he very diligently focused on his nutrition. Exercise cannot alone lose fat, and he knew that very well. Growing up as an Irishman where potatoes and rice were the staple food, it was challenging for him to shift to a new diet. The fitness experts associated with the shows he worked on helped him understand the importance of cutting carbohydrates or sugar from his diet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

After that, there was no looking back. In an interview with the daily mail in 2015, he said that he followed a low-carb meal with high protein but wasn\u2019t regular with it. He would sometimes follow that a few weeks before a show to shed a few pounds to get in shape. Recently, he\u2019s following the\u00a0<\/span>Atkins diet<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0diligently. He has been on and off it since he was 25 years old.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this diet, you can lose weight eating as much fat and protein as you want and avoiding food with high carbohydrate content. Following this diet, his blood sugar levels improved, his mood improved, good cholesterol \u2018HDL,\u2019 triglycerides and other health markers drastically improved resulting in energy throughout the day with less hunger pangs so that he could stay focused on his work and not let the mind wander about thoughts of food.<\/span><\/p>\n

Consumption\u00a0<\/span> \u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

You start by consuming just 20 grams of carbohydrates per day for 2 weeks while maintaining a high protein and fat diet. Carbohydrates are slowly added when you\u2019re close to your body weight goals.<\/span><\/p>\n

A general plate of Brian would consist of steak, eggs, bacon, and a few carrots and other green vegetables. He would supplement this by consuming ample amount of water which prevented him from getting dehydrated due to grueling workout sessions and kept hunger pangs at bay.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Standing Tall<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Today Brian stands tall and proud at 6 feet and 2 inches and 7 pounds less from his body and with a net worth of 18 million US dollars.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Brian\u2019s story truly shows us how a\u00a0<\/span>weight loss journey<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0doesn\u2019t need to be so long that you can\u2019t even visualize it.
