When it comes to weight loss inspiration, some 90 Day Fiancé stars really deliver, by adding before and after pictures that showcase their results. In fact, many 90DF celebs now display chiseled bodies on Instagram, which they had to work very hard to get. Some have shed their extra pounds via healthy diet and exercise routines, while others have opted for bariatric and/or plastic surgery.
In the past, many 90 Day Fiancé cast members have opened up about their weight loss journeys, and the challenges that they faced along the way, as they tried to change their shapes. Losing weight has helped them to get fitter and healthier, and look at life differently. The most dramatic weight loss stories from the world of 90 Day Fiancé are definitely shocking, and well worth a closer look.
10 90 Day Fiancé's Big Ed Brown
Once upon a time, Big Ed Brown was known for not achieving his weight loss goals. The San Diego man was first seen in 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 4, with Filipina girlfriend, Rose Vega. She eventually split with him because of his constant lies. Big Ed went into his “revenge body” mode soon after, and started regularly sharing gym updates. Big Ed has a disorder called Klippel-Feil syndrome, which makes it look like he has a very short neck. Since he's not tall, and has this disorder, any extra pounds he carries may be more noticeable.
However, according to Big Ed, heartbreak is what helps him to lose the most weight, as he recalled dropping 35 pounds after his first divorce. Similarly, when he broke up with his now-partner Liz Woods for the first time, Big Ed chopped off his hair, and slimmed down by 25 pounds. He did so through diet and exercise, but Big Ed hit a plateau after his initial weight loss. Now, he wants to lose 15 more pounds by focusing on what he eats.
9 90 Day Fiancé's Rebecca Parrott
The self-proclaimed filter queen of 90 Day Fiancé, Rebecca, has ditched the extreme photo edits and extra pounds since her last season 8 appearance. Rebecca had infamously sent Zied Hakimi ridiculously Photoshopped pictures of herself, in which she looked unrecognizable. However, upon turning 50 years old, Rebecca took matters into her own hands, giving herself a full-body makeover, which involved undergoing TriSculpt micro-laser liposuction for weight loss. 90 Day Fiancé cast member Rebecca got a Sono Bello laser liposuction procedure, and seemingly lost 34 pounds in just 38 weeks. To supplement her new, healthy lifestyle, Rebecca quit smoking, and embraced mindful eating, as well as exercise.
8 90 Day Fiancé's Debbie Johnson
Colt Johnson’s mother’s life has done a complete 180 since Debbie's 90 Day Fiancé season 6 debut. The monster-in-law is now a hopeless romantic, who's starting a life of her own in Canada with her boyfriend, Tony. Debbie decided to jump into the dating pool by getting cast in 90 Day: The Single Life season 2. To prepare, 90 Day Fiancé star Debbie dieted, grew her hair longer, and dyed it a fiery red. At 70 years old, Debbie also got a tattoo, and had Botox injections. She was restarting her life after being a widow for 13 years, following the death of Colt's father, Harley Johnson.
7 90 Day Fiancé's Natalie Mordovtseva
Ukrainian 90 Day Fiancé star Natalie has been very vocal about the trials and tribulations of staying in the woods with her ex-husband Mike Youngquist during their romance. Natalie started excessively Photoshopping her pictures on Instagram, and always tried to crop her lower body. Her pictures sparked rumors that Natalie was pregnant. However, that wasn’t the case, and Natalie was body-shamed for putting on 30 pounds due to emotional eating. As 90 Day Fiancé star Natalie always had one goal on her mind, which was to start her acting and modeling career in the U.S., she quickly bounced back. She lost weight with a Keto + 16:8 intermittent fasting plan.
Natalie’s workout regimen consisted of swimming, and she also tried cryotherapy. Natalie was called out for having promoted the same laser lipo procedure as Rebecca. Natalie claimed her new body was due to exercise and diet, but her penchant for plugging weight loss procedures may tell a different story, Natalie, who used to weigh 165 pounds at the start of her journey, currently weighs around 136 pounds.
