He seems to have ditched the chef whites altogether in favour of a pair of swimming trunks, as Gordon Ramsay flaunts his new leaner figure.

The famous chef posted a number of photos on his Twitter page whilst training in Hawaii for Saturday's IRONMAN championship.

The 46-year-old appears slimmer than ever after first shedding the pounds earlier this year due to the gruelling tournament.

The foul mouthed star posted a topless photo of himself on his Twitter page with the caption: 'Final swim before the big day. 3 days until IRONMAN! #IMKona'.

Just hours later, Gordon posed for a another idyllic snap while at the beach, saying : 'Wish you were here'.

The father-of-four will be competing in his second triathlon after finishing his first in September, after completing a gruelling distance of 70.3 miles of swimming, cycling and running

While the foul-mouthed star was by no means overweight when he started his career, or indeed even two years ago, he has still managed to lose some weight.

Speaking after his first race, the Kitchen Nightmares star revealed that he had used his racing time constructively to ponder over new business ventures, and of course food, to get him through the most difficult parts of the course.

He explained: 'I've already thought about 3 chapters for my new book, you have to think of food when you’re on those hills, 3 and a half hours on a bike, you need to think of something!’

Gordon revealed his passion for fitness started when he hit 40, beginning with triathlons and progressing the distance to a half Ironman which was a ‘lifelong ambition’ for the TV chef.

Ramsay completed the draining race in an impressive 6 hours, 38 minutes and 36 seconds.

No doubt this time the competitive star will looking to beat his time which looks promising if these snaps are anything to go by.

I like Gordon, he's a "proper" chef but he spoils it by swearing so much - it's not necessary.

He's clearly had some fat melting procedure done on his tummy. And packing a very meaty lunchbox.
