Chaz Bono is half the man he used to be. Well, not quite half, but 80lbs. lighter is quite a bit!
The 43-year-old Dancing with the Stars contestant, who weighed 250 lbs. before dieting, opened up to People about his new look. Chaz tells the mag:
"I've been sticking to a really strict diet. It's not any type of starvation thing. I'm just cutting out a lot of stuff and eating primarily protein and vegetables and fruit."
Bono first admitted that he was hoping to lose at least 50 lbs. on an episode of The Doctors. Chaz adds:
"That episode was the most uncomfortable I've ever been on television in my life. I had been wanting to lose weight. It was something I had been trying to do and failing at. This opportunity just kind of came in, and my initial reaction was 'absolutely not.' And after that, the more I thought about it, I realized I've been wanting to deal with this issue and somebody's willing to help me do it, so I decided to throw my pride away and get help."
Bono is expected to appear on The Doctors this Wednesday to show off his new bod.

Johnny Knoxville isn't a Jackass when it comes to his kids!
The former MTV star doted over his children Madison and Rocko while at the Farmers Market in LA.
His partner Naomi must have been able to tame his daredevil ways. Wonder if Johnny's Jackass co-star Steve-O would ever be left in charge of babysitting? We have a feeling the answer is a big, fat no.
Fergie and her husband Josh Duhamel are expecting their first child together, her rep has (finally!) confirmed.
The 37-year-old singer tweeted the good news along with an adorable Photoshoppped image of herself and Josh as youngsters. “Josh & Me & BABY makes three!!! #mylovelybabybump,†she wrote.
Josh tweeted the same message from his Twitter account as well. Congrats you two!

Hilary Duff stopped by Intermix in Beverly Hills over the weekend, and the 25-year-old starlet left son Luca with the nanny during her retail therapy session.
Hil switched up her usual cute and casual style for a more boho chic look, and while we love the color coordination and the headband, we're not so sure about the hemline on that dress...

Who knew these two were BFFs? Guess they've stayed in touch since filming Forgetting Sarah Marshall in 2007!
Over the weekend Russell Brand was snapped picking up Jason Segel in his black Range Rover, and the guys looked thrilled to be spending time together. Maybe Jason will set Russell up with a nice lady? Or are these two going to be working on a new project together?
Speaking of work, Russell recently confessed that starring in the Arthur remake back in 2011 was not one of his best career decisions. “I didn’t know a lot about script construction," he tells The Sun. "I know more now. I was just embracing things enthusiastically. I thought I could do anything. I felt a little bit bruised [after the bad reviews]. I felt I’d made a mistake.â€

We're glad to see these two returning safe and sound to Los Angeles!
Paris Hilton and boyfriend River Viiperi traveled to Lake Tahoe for her birthday weekend (she turned 32 on Sunday), but unfortunately their romantic ski vacay was cut short when River hurt himself on the slopes!
Viiperi was taken to a local hospital after falling and cutting his leg open, and P tweeted, "Such a scary day on the slopes today. After seeing the gash on River's leg, I almost passed out. I have never seen a cut that deep in my life. He is so brave, I can't even imagine the pain he went through today."
River thanked his ladylove for "always taking such good care of me." He added, "Love U... Thank u tweeps 4 the kind words! 12 days W/ (with) stitches then back 2 'almost normal' this sucks but could have been worse. Thankful. Goodnight."
