Mukbang YouTuber Nikocado Avocado reveals 250-pound weight loss

Remember Mukbang YouTuber Nikocado Avocado? He just lost 250 pounds.

The vlogger, whose real name is Nicholas Perry, shocked the Internet on Saturday, Sept. 7 when he revealed his dramatic weight loss transformation in a two-part video.

“Today, I woke up from a very long dream, and I also woke up having lost 250 pounds off of my body,” he said. “It was a long eight years, wasn’t it?” 

“Just yesterday, people were calling me fat and sick and boring and irrelevant. People are the most messed up creatures on the entire planet, and yet I still manage to stay two steps ahead of everyone,” he continued.

Like in his previous vlogs, he consumed huge plates of noodles in spicy and cheesy variants. Also featured in the clips is his pet parrot, who is also seen having a few bites of his food.

He took a hiatus from vlogging before he revealed his weight loss, with his last entry published seven months ago on his main channel and another one three months ago on his second page. He focused on shedding pounds for two years and only shared pre-recorded content in the past months to keep his channel active during that period.

“This has been the greatest social experiment of my entire life. It’s worrying, it’s compelling, it’s gripping to observe all these unwell, disorientated beings roam the Internet in search of stories, ideas, rivalries where they feel encouraged, engaged,” he said.

Nikocado Avocado became known for his mukbang videos. He started with vegan food but later on featured all kinds of dishes in big servings, which later made him struggle with obesity.
