Drew Scott may have been eliminated on Dancing with the Stars… but there’s one thing he’s taking away.

Or should we say – leaving behind?

The HGTV star revealed that he dropped a staggering 34 pounds during his time on the competition, and he’s planning on keeping it off.

The 39-year-old said he’s always been a healthy guy but he hasn’t done as much cardio as he should have – and he never thought dancing would give him this much. He’s going to definitely keep the weight off by playing sports, and he hopes he will put a bit of muscle back on.

And what does his wife think about all this?

According to him, she likes the abs!

Gotta love that Drew is taking the elimination all in stride…

But let’s be honest – would you expect anything less?
