Christopher Schwarzenegger Shows Off Dramatic Weight Loss Transformation

The 27-year-old son of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver could be seen showing off his slimmer figure in a photo shared by sister Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt on Instagram on Aug. 22.

In the image, Christopher wore a white shirt and pink shorts as he looked down at his phone while on a boat.

Other images shared in the carousel post showed mom Maria, 69, plus brother-in-law Chris Pratt. Christopher's uncle, Anthony Shriver, was also featured in snapshots, as were what appeared to be some of Katherine and Chris' children.

Christopher previously opened up about his dramatic weight loss transformation while speaking at the Inaugural Beacher Vitality Happy & Healthy Summit in Los Angeles in May.

Explaining that slimming down has taken him more than five years, the Vice Chair of the Special Olympics Founder's Council said, "It was a big process."

"I started in 2019, when I was living in Australia. I was on this big trip. I made it a big [deal] like, 'Oh, I'm going to go out and do all this stuff, be in Australia,' and I just saw how much my weight was prohibiting me from doing the everyday activities," Christopher continued.

He added: "I was like, 'I want to go skydiving.' And my friends were like, 'Yeah, no shot.' I was like, 'Yeah, I can't skydive.' "

Christopher's insecurity about his weight, he said, began in high school. He used to bring customized lunches to help him eat healthier.

"I tried everything. I was doing meal delivery things in high school, and I remember feeling like a weirdo when I was bringing weird lunches to school," Christopher said during the panel.

According to Christopher, his weight loss was "not an overnight thing." He added, "It took a lot of trial and error, and even still to this day ... when you're saying, oh, before and after photos ... I don't feel like I'm an after yet. I don't feel like I'm at the point."

Christopher said one way he was able to shed so much weight was by giving up bread during Lent — a 40-day Christian religious observance. "I lost 30 lbs. just through that," the University of Michigan graduate, who is also the Director of Development at Indus Valley Media, a Los Angeles production company, recalled.

Good for him.

He'll never be as good looking as Patrick, but I give him a lot of credit for his perseverance.

I'm guessing (hoping) he didn't take the easy way out with Ozempic.

I don't think his father would let him, to be honest.

Arnold would probably force him to do it through exercise and diet, rather than the lazy Ozempic way out.

But in any case, he looks great.

I'm sure it burns him mom and dad only dote on Patrick.

Do you consider Chantix or methadone cheating R3?

I doubt it, R3; it seems like there have been articles about his weight loss a couple of times a year for the last few years.

I've read about Ozempic. Ozempic is definitely not taking the easy way out.

I think hes good looking though his teeth are a tad too big . Im not really into big teeth .

He looks like a different person, that's what I call commitment.

He's a Kennedy.

I have been taking Mounjaro/Zepbound for 2 + years, and have lost around 58 pounds with another 20 to go. With that, I've done a lot of exercise and have adopted a much healthier diet. GLP1s are a tool, not a magic bullet. They are definitely not the "easy way out" or "lazy."

I would bet that he has been using injectables. The boy was fat since childhood and you think only now, for the first time in his life, he manages to drop 80 (or whatever) pounds? Of course, being Arnold's son, he cannot admit this. And honestly, no shade. Whatever tools people can use to get healthier are fine by me. He now looks every inch a Kennedy, with his huge teeth and puffy hair, far moreso than Patrick.

Christopher is the one who was born the same year as half-brother Joseph.

Do the four kids talk to their half-brother?

by Anonymousreply 13August 25, 2025 3:14 AM

R13 - no.

I said this in a previous thread - but he was the only one at home during the whole 'revelation' with Joseph - his friend. All the other kids were in college or had their own lives.

The weight gain most likely started during that - ton of tension in that house. His mom was a wreck - his dad moved out - his ex-housekeeper was an enemy and hi former friend was a half-brother.

I don't blame him one bit - poor guy.

Oh...dear...really.

Do you still believe in Santa Claus too?

No, there are those of us fat kids who transform with a later puberty. I lost 56 pounds over a period of eight months when I was 17- a lot of it was bicycling between shitty part-time jobs.

People should also note that he's a 27 year old male. Many young guys can lose weight pretty easily, especially if they focus on it. I remember when I was in my 20s, you could drop 5 pounds in a couple of days.

Yes, R17, one injection a week.

by Anonymousreply 18August 25, 2025 3:47 AM

All he did was give up eating bread for 40 days and lost 30lbs? Um something does not sound right. He must have been eating full loaves of bread every day for that dramatic of a loss.

Your point, r19?

Oprah already ate away her Ozempic. She seems addicted to losing weight then hoping she can just eat anything she wants and failing and getting fat again then trying again later.

by Anonymousreply 21August 25, 2025 3:57 AM

Good for him. Losing weight--and keeping it off is so difficult.
