Shay Mooney has shared more details on his weight loss, revealing how he "had a moment" where he realized something needed to change.
The country star, one half of Dan + Shay, shared with fans in October he had lost 50lbs but on Thursday revealed on Today Show he was still losing pounds and joked: "I've got to stand next to this guy all the time," pointing to his bandmate Dan Smyers, 35.

Shay then added: "I had this moment where I was just not feeling healthy. It wasn't necessarily for my appearance, but it was to feel healthy, and I'm down about 53 or 54 lbs."
Shay rocked skinny black jeans and a white tee, paired with a fall green jacket while Dan wore a festive cardigan with a white tee and blue jeans.

"Well you were handsome and sexy before," shared host Craig Melvin to which Shay stood and shook his hand.
Shay - a father-of-two whose wife Hannah is expecting their third son - took to social media earlier in the year to detail his changing health, revealing he had refocused his diet, and added more walking and weight-training to his days.
