There is no doubt that

did not have a very good eye when, back in January, he proclaimed

but the truth is that he has taken the challenge of changing his lifestyle super seriously , practicing more exercise and abandoning junk food and sugar forever (he says). Monitored through her social networks, the Australian actress with round curves has been showing throughout this time how she is working to lose weight.

The

of 25 kilos that he has already lost,

in a gradual and healthy way, he assures, are the result of a

to which Gunnar Peterson, one of those 'coaches' that celebrities around the world (Hugh Jackman, Sylvester Stallone or Chris Hemsworth, to name a few examples) raffles him. However, all that glitters is not gold.
