Evans, 62, revealed that following his sacking from Rotherham in March, he made the decision to get healthy with the help of his family.
The manager admitted that in order to take up the challenge, he had to turn down opportunities to return to the dugout.
His new fitness regime has included swimming two and a half kilometres every morning and biking regularly.
Evans has also insisted that his family did not think he would stick by the new regime but since March, he has lost 41.2KGS.
Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: “I came out of Rotherham and made some family decisions.
“Despite the phone ringing from a couple of clubs to go straight into them I made the decision to get healthy.
“I had not done it since the end of my time at Leeds United so a lot of years.
“I went to see some serious people and some specialists, a cardiologist and fitness people.

“We came up with a plan and my family did not think I would be able to do it.
“But here we are seven months of so later, six and a half stone down.

“I am feeling the benefit now mentally and physically, fantastic.”
Fans spotted the interview on the broadcaster and were quick to hail the efforts by the manager.
One posted: “Crikey, I just saw Steve Evans on Sky and he’s lost over 6 stone in weight, so fair play to him.”
