The company announced the partnership on New Year’s Day. According to a CEO Mindy Grossman, Khaled’s ambassadorship is meant to “enliven and inspire his community.” Considering shares in the company were already up eight percent by Tuesday according to Fortune, he’s definitely the right person for the job!

According to the DJ — who’s real name is Khaled Mohamed Khaled — he’s already down 20 pounds since beginning the program.

Oprah, who serves as both a celebrity spokesperson and shareholder,  welcomed him into the Weight Watcher’s family, tweeting “Welcome to #WWFreestyle. Can’t wait to see you #blessup this program ✌???.”

For Khaled, his adorable little boy Asahd is all the motivation he needs to get fit.

“Weight Watchers is all about being great and being your best self. My son is my love, my life, and I need to be great for him,” said Khaled in a statement. “To be great is to be healthy; to be healthy means a shift in my lifestyle.”
