Although its not known how much the 35-year-old weighed to begin with, in 2012, Jason posted on Facebook telling fans he’s lost over a stone in just a few months.
He wrote: “So I’ve been losing weight over the last few months, just over a stone so far. Feeling pretty good.
“Get into costume for my character in Sweeney Todd and the director says I’m not fat enough and gets the costume lady to add padding!
“If only I’d have known in February I could of been eating Dominoes instead of lettuce!”
As well as sharing his weight loss successes with fans, Jason also revealed in an interview with Express.co.uk last year, he incorporates this into his comedy shows.
He said: “There’s nothing worse than seeing yourself in HD. It does nobody any favours.
“I do jokes about being overweight but I do them because I think, if I do them then hecklers or someone on Twitter can’t then do it.
“I’d rather not have to write jokes about being overweight but that’s the nature of the beast really. You can take the power away from the bully.”
So how exactly did Jason lose the weight? His secret – cutting out white bread.
He once joked: “My name’s Jason and I’m a white breadaholic, it’s 12 days since I last had bread.”
Eating healthily hasn’t always been easy for Jason though, and he’s admitted to the struggles to keeping on top of it.
Writing for the Mirror online back in 2014, Jason revealed he’d been trying to rid his diet of white bread and “bad carbs”.
