A man in Mississippi is inspiring others with his near-400-pound weight loss transformation.
Nicholas Craft, 42, of Hattiesburg, Mississippi, weighed 649 pounds in June 2019, and now he’s down more than 365 pounds.
“My weight stopped me from going to family events and traveling,” he recalled. “I couldn’t get into regular vehicles. It was hard for me to get around. I had knee pain, body aches and shortness of breath.”Craft said that comment made him realize he had to change his ways.Craft told Fox News Digital he didn’t go on a specialized weight loss diet. He simply switched the way he ate and how he approached food, which includes calorie counting and giving up junk food.
The native Mississippian has documented his weight loss journey on Facebook with before and after photos that show his progress.Social media users who have come across Craft’s weight loss story on Facebook have commended him for his ambition and dedication. “Bless you Nicholas you’ve shown such love and respect to your grandmother and yourself,” another user shared.
Other noninvasive weight loss and toning procedures that have gained popularity in recent years include fat melting injections, fat freezing , fat warming and targeted radiofrequency treatments , as noted by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. “You have to make lifestyle changes, like eating healthier, instead of shortcuts,” Craft said. “[It’s also important to] stay active, even if it’s just a little bit, so long as you’re moving.”
