Brendan Fevola was sporting a remarkably trim figure as he was spotted out in public for the first time since revealing his dramatic 30kg weight loss.
The 43-year-old AFL great revealed last week that he has lost a quarter of his previous body weight in the past 12 months.
On Monday, Brendan showed off his slim figure as he stepped out to buy coffee in Melbourne.
The former athlete dressed casually during the outing in a simple black T-shirt and a pair of loose-fitting green shorts by Ralph Lauren.
The AFL star completed his look with a pair of white trainers, black long socks and a grey cap.
Brendan was seen crossing the road after picking up a takeaway tray of coffee in the suburb of Hampton.
Last week, the sports star spoke about her transformation on Fox FM’s Fifi, Fev and Nick breakfast show, telling her co-hosts what her secret was to shedding the pounds.
“I’m on another diet. I’ve been on it for two weeks and I feel great. I’ve lost about nine kilos because I’m on the ketogenic diet, which is perfect for me,” she began.

“It doesn’t contain carbs or sugar. I don’t like sugar very much, so I don’t eat a lot of chocolate.”
The ketogenic diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet that aims to put the body into a state of ketosis where it burns fat for fuel, helping to induce weight loss.
Brendan added that he was enjoying trying new foods as part of his diet and said he was already noticing some amazing and unexpected benefits.
‘I’m going to eat cauliflower rice, cauliflower puree with something resembling meat. I’m going to eat salmon, fish, chicken. The food is really delicious, it’s everything I eat but without the carbs.
‘I literally walk down the street now and people say, ‘Is that Fev?’ because I’m fading. I weighed 128kg last year, which is a lot. When I’m done with this, I’ll be below my playing weight at Carlton. I’ll be around the same weight.’

Brendan previously revealed he thought he was going to die as he struggled to lose 12kg in nine days as part of his contract with weight loss gurus Jenny Craig.
He became an ambassador for Jenny Craig in 2017 and, following news that the weight loss company had gone bankrupt, he revealed what he needed to do to meet his contractual obligations.
“They paid me a lot of money, but during the first six months I had to lose a lot of weight,” he said on the radio.
“And then for the next year you had to stay within two kilos, you were weighed every month and that was without food, you had to do it yourself.”
Brendan went on to explain the “terrifying” lengths he went to in order to keep up his end of the bargain, culminating in him having to lose nearly 26 pounds in nine days.

“I was a little scared because the big weigh-in was coming up where I would get paid the big money, so I had to do it,” he said.
‘My goal was 108kg and I was out for nine days and I weighed 119.8 and I had nine days to lose it and I didn’t eat for basically seven days.’
“I went to a sauna and went for a walk around the Brighton baths but I had no energy. I was so unwell that it was the only time I thought I might die. My nose started bleeding for no reason and I had a soup which filled me up again.”
“But there was a great result, I woke up that morning, went and weighed myself, I got to 107, everyone applauded and said well done.”
