Mukbang-famed YouTuber stuns fans with over 110kg weight loss

Famous American YouTuber Nicholas Perry, also known as Nikocado Avocado, has shocked his fans by revealing a remarkable weight loss of 114 kilograms (250 pounds).

Perry, who gained notoriety for his binge-eating videos, shared his transformation in a new video titled 'Two Steps Ahead' on his YouTube channel, which has garnered over 29 million views.

"I have been strategically posting pre-recorded videos for 2 years, on both YouTube and TikTok. I edited the videos so that they would appear recent, allowing me to focus on healing my body behind the scenes," the mukbang expert wrote in an email.

Perry also revealed that he shaved his head to avoid recognition in public due to his silent transformation.

“I shaved my head so that people wouldn’t recognise me in public. A handful of fellow YouTubers also helped to keep my secret.”

The content maker's weight loss journey took him from 411 pounds at his heaviest to 158 pounds today.

He described his transformation as the "greatest social experiment of my entire life" and aimed to remind people not to take the internet too seriously.

"While everybody pointed and laughed at me for over-consuming food, I was in total control the entire time

"In reality, people are completely absorbed with Internet personalities and obsessively watch their content. That is where a deeper level of over-consumption lies — and it's the parallel I wanted to make."
