Casey King first appeared on the reality show in 2018, weighing about 383 kg. Now, seven years later, he looks completely different.
In the past, the young man was unemployed and spent the whole day eating and playing video games. Due to his size, he had to take baths in a trough, a kind of water tank for cattle.
Casey King had been kicked out of his mother’s house for being unable to keep a job, and he realized he needed to change his situation.
He opted for bariatric surgery, a vertical gastrectomy, and lost about 32 kg after the procedure. By following a strict diet and changing his lifestyle, he managed to lose around 272 kg.
In 2023, Casey King weighed about 111 kg and gave an emotional testimony in the series “Brand New Me” by Truly.

“My lifestyle at my highest weight was practically non-existent. I didn’t like people. I didn’t like being seen. I didn’t like socializing,” he opened up. “I felt like a freak.”
Casey’s father, Danny, was emotional upon seeing his son’s progress. “In my wildest dreams, I never would have imagined he’d reach the weight he has now. It’s been quite a journey, and I can say for sure: I’m really proud of him,” he said.
Casey King says on his Instagram profile that his goal is to reach 102 kg and is relying on the support of his fans to reach his dream.
“You are literally one of the most inspiring people I’ve ever met. Incredible resilience and determination, truly,” wrote a follower.
