The 40-year-old comedian has been on a healthy eating kick ever since his sons computer branded him overweight in 2014.
Talking on Graham Nortons chat show at the time, Michael, who admitted he once pulled a muscle getting food out of the fridge, revealed: Ive had lots of clues over the years that perhaps I should lose weight, but something happened in December which finally made me want to do it.
My son has an app called Akinator the Genie that guesses the famous people youre thinking of by asking questions, so for egotistical reasons I thought while my son was at school Id see if I was on it.
It started asking questions like, Is it a man? and Is he American? and it narrowed it down to a British comedian with dark hair.
Im getting a little excited wondering if its me in the game and then it asks, Is he slightly over weight? so I had a moment of truth, took a deep breath and said yes and it replied, is it Michael McIntyre? so I havent eaten since then!

While Michaels more recent methods of weight loss are unknown, back in 2013 he said he opted to have three healthy meals delivered to his door at a cost of up to 60 a day.
He enlisted the help of Pure Package, a bespoke diet service, to help him shift the pounds.
And other methods Michael has used to slim down include cutting out carbohydrates and laying off the booze.
In 2010, he embarked upon a vigorous training regime that saw him lose two stone, but he quickly put the weight back on.

According to Mail Online in 2013, on a typical day, Michael could breakfast on pancakes with mixed fruit and vanilla yoghurt, followed by smoked venison and poached pear salad for lunch and a dinner of satay chicken with rice.
Snacks include dips with crudits, American style muffins or a simple handful of pumpkin seeds.
Fellow comedian James Manford has been on a mission to lose weight over the past few years.
Although its not known how much the 35-year-old weighed to begin with, in 2012, Jason posted on Facebook telling fans hes lost over a stone in just a few months.
