AFTER a breakdown in family relationships, Matthew spiralled into depression and found comfort in food that resulted in rapid weight gain. At his heaviest, he weighed 487lbs but moving out from his family home to a new place kickstarted Matthew's decision to lose weight. The 27-year-old, from California, has lost half of his body weight - an incredible 242lbs in just two years, from 487lbs to 245lbs. Starting a healthy regime has helped Matthew to improve his mental health and consequently, not only has his relationship with his family improved, but he also inspires others around him to adopt healthy eating habits. Matthew's journey is not over – he is planning on getting skin removal surgery soon and continuing to inspire others to live a healthier lifestyle.
