Watch A Man React To A Stranger’s Weight Loss Journey

"The journey of a 1,000 miles begins with a single step.” Never is this truer than when fighting obesity and food addiction.

YouTuber Boogie2988 began openly sharing his battle to lose weight when he was 550 pounds. Right now, he needs to lose 100 pounds. As encouragement, his weight loss trainer Diamond Dallas Page sent him a weight-loss video diary of Jared, a guy who took that first step. Like Boogie, Jared’s case seemed hopeless, but he lost 300 pounds in 15 months. You can view Jared's full story here.

Watch as Boogie painfully reacts to Jared’s video diary. Jared narrates as he shows photos of his increasing weight gain over the years until he reaches the 500-pound mark. He finally takes the painful step to alter the way he lives, because major weight loss isn’t just about diet and exercise, it’s about changing your way of thinking. Boogie, the kind of person for whom the video is meant to inspire, reacts to it in real time with raw emotion.
