EastEnders star Danny Dyer opened up about shedding some pounds with intermittent fasting. The soap veteran known for playing Mick Carter on the BBC One soap has lost about a stone. How?

EastEnders: The New Fasting Works Wonder for Danny!
The EastEnders icon chatted with the Daily Mirror about his new routine, dropping instructions on how to do it right. He revealed, “Ideally, you should break your fast with something healthy. Sometimes, for me, that has been a pint of Stella.” Anyway, Danny is gearing up to join the celebrity edition of The Great British Bake Off for Stand Up to Cancer.
While filming, the EastEnders star remained unfazed by the sweet treats surrounding the baking tent. It is because Dyer is more of a savoury guy. He said, “I don’t mind a bit of chocolate now and then, but I am not really a sweet man.” However, Danny did ditch his fasting for a day as he needed to eat some breakfast.
The actor required energy on the first day of filming. Nevertheless, he usually waits for his first meal until the afternoon or evening. It does work for him! Recently, the EastEnders legend was spotted shooting a brawl sequence for his upcoming venture, Marching Powder. The project is considered a follow-up to Football Factory and is expected to up the ante on crime and violence.
Additionally, Danny expressed delight to reunite with Football Factory director Nick Love for this gritty gig. He teased, “‘We’re gonna be bang on the marching powder; that’s the name of the film, by the way.” Back to EastEnders, his character had a dramatic exit in 2022. Mick vanished at sea. Mick as he tried to rescue his wife Linda from perilous waves.
But Danny’s quite busy right now to make a comeback anytime soon. Do you miss watching him on the soap? Let us know in the comments down below. Meanwhile,
