Known for his extreme mukbang videos, YouTube star Nikocado Avocado recently shocked fans by revealing a dramatic 250-pound weight loss.

For years, the 32-year-old, whose real name is Nicholas Perry, maintained an online persona focused on overeating, which led to his weight ballooning to over 400 pounds at his peak.

However, in a September 2024 video titled “Two Steps Ahead,” Perry revealed his transformation, explaining that much of the content his audience had been viewing was pre-recorded while he worked on losing the weight behind the scenes.

Perry called this reveal the “greatest social experiment” of his life, tricking fans into believing he was still dangerously overweight. He has also stated that his drastic change was meant to highlight the culture of overconsumption in both food and media.

His transformation garnered widespread attention, with many fans expressing relief that he chose to prioritize his health after years of concerns about his well-being.

The reaction to Perry’s weight loss has been mixed, with some speculating that he may have used weight loss medications like Ozempic, though these claims remain unconfirmed. Despite the controversy, Nikocado Avocado has returned to creating content, leaving fans in awe of his ability to maintain such a long-term ruse while transforming his life
