Simon Cowell has unveiled the results of his recent weight loss by showing off his ripped bod as he went topless on holiday.
TheX Factorsupremo claims to have shed two stone in the last year by taking up a vegan diet and cutting out sugar.
After overhauling his eating habits, the 59 – year-old dad was spotted soaking up on the sun on a family holiday to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
Simon’s trim tum and toned arms were clear to see as relaxed by the pool with a glass of healthy green juice.
He was joined by his girlfriend Lauren Silverman, 42, and their five-year-old- son Eric.
Lauren was seen sporting a chic strapless black swimsuit with a daring lace-up front. The New York socialite finished her look with a fedora and a pair of giant tortoiseshell sunglasses.
After whipping off her towel, Lauren joined Simon in their pool.
Dog-lover Simon even took his two dogs – Terriers Squiddly and Diddly – in for a dip with him.
Simon recently revealed that he’d lost weight the old fashioned way rather than opting for a quick fix.
He explained: “People have said, ‘Oh, he’s had a gastric band fitted’ – but I haven’t.
“ If I had, I would admit to it. This diet is all about what you put into your body. It’s not the Atkins diet or anything else. It’s just common sense. ”
He told Best magazine:“ It’s not hard at all. I met this doctor in LA and he told me my diet was appalling and I had to cut out fatty foods and certain drinks.
“Within a few weeks, I could see the difference. Cutting *** sugar made a massive difference.
“The first few weeks were difficult, but then I stopped craving sugar. I have also found a brilliant gluten-free beer, which helps. The hardest part is when I see Eric [his five-year-old son] eat a pizza in front of me. ”
He added that he has also changed his hours:“ I now go to bed way before midnight and get up at about 8am, and I feel so much better for it.
“I never eat late at night any more. “
Simon’s Britain’s Got Talent co-stars even pointed out that he’s looking younger than ever on the Champions special.
