Christopher Schwarzenegger is continuing his weight loss journey.
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.
