Simon Cowell, celebrity judge and founder of Syco Entertainment was pictured on a beach in Barbados after losing four inches off his waist following his recent health kick.
Speaking to The Sun, he said: “I cut out a lot of stuff that I shouldn’t have been eating and that was primarily meat, dairy, wheat, sugar – those were the four main things.”
Simon explained that the decision to switch up his diet came after he discovered an allergy to melon and was advised by a friend to speak to an expert.
A reason Simon wanted to ensure his fitness was on top form was for the sake of his young son Eric.
Simon admitted he used to binge on junk food like sausage rolls, hamburgers and his favourite jam tarts made by his personal chef.

Speaking to Best magazine, the music mogul said: “This diet is all about what you put into your body. It’s not the Atkins diet or anything else.”
