James ‘Arg’ Argent has stunned fans with his weight loss as he prepares to swim the English Channel.
The TOWIE star is training to swim the Channel as part of Channel 4 show Sink or Swim.
Arg, 31, took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a shirtless snap of himself and his co-stars Wes Nelson, Ross Edgley and Simon Webbe.

Arg captioned the post: “In just over 3 weeks we will be swimming across the English Chanel & heading all the way to France in aid of @su2cuk @su2c.
“Some of us could not even swim a few meters when we first started but due to hard work & dedication we have gone from the swimming pool to the lake & now to sea swimming!”
He added: “We have lost people along the way but we are still a team through to the bitter end of this mammoth challenge!
“I’m losing weight and training twice a day to hopefully pass the assessment in order to take part! I’m giving it 110%.”
Fans were stunned by Arg’s slimmer bod and praised him for taking part.
One person said: “Good for you and well done on weight loss you should be proud!!”
Another wrote: “Amazing, well done arg,” while a third added: “Arg go you, you look amazing and you will smash this.”
Last week, the reality TV star shared a photo of himself and Love Island and Dancing On Ice star Wes next to a river.
Arg told fans: “I’ve never worked this hard or been so committed to anything in my life!
“@wes.nelson has been so supportive & has motivated me. In 1 month we are swimming across the channel & leading our team to France in aid of @su2cuk #SinkOrSwim @channel4.”
Last month, Arg hit back at critics as he announced he was taking part in the show.
Alongside a video of himself swimming laps, Arg said: “My grandad died of Prostate Cancer when I was in my teens, I’m doing this in honour of him & to raise awareness.
“It’s also a great chance for me to kickstart my healthy lifestyle & weight loss journey!

“I know most people will think I will fail & not do it but I will prove those doubters wrong just like I did with the Marathon.
“I won’t let myself or anyone down. I’m working so hard in order to pass the medical & assessment before I even take on this massive challenge.”
