Even though he's losing a lot of weight, comedian Gabriel Iglesias, aka "Fluffy", said in an interview on Today that he's still a big dude.

Iglesias was willing to tell his weight lost secret - no bread, stopped eating whole cakes - but he wasn't willing to give a preview of his "Magic Mike" moves that he'll be doing in a reprisal of his role in "Magic Mike XXL," due out in July.

"Man, it took me 20 minutes to get in this chair just right," Iglesias said.
