EXCLUSIVE: The Only Way is Essex star James Argent says his gastric band surgery was 'the best thing' he's ever done as he shares what pal Mark Wright thinks of his dramatic transformation
James 'Arg' Argent finally seems to have found his groove when it comes to staying healthy, and has hinted that we could see him running the London Marathon will best pal Mark Wright . The 36 year old is looking better than ever after shedding an incredible 13 stone, with the help of a lifestyle overhaul and a gastric band that was fitted in 2021.
James has a number of solid supporters through his health journey - including former TOWIE cast mates Mark and Ferne McCann. Asked whether the 2025 London Marathon could be on the cards with Mark, who is married to Corrie's Michelle Keegan, Arg said: "That would be cool . That would be great. Will he push me to do it? Absolutely. He’d pace me to get a good time as well."
Running the 26.2 mile course would've been an impossible feat for Arg a few years ago. The star admitted recently that he couldn't even tie his own shoelaces, relying on slip-ons or the help of friends to get around it.
