Steve-O Reveals Weight Loss Transformation Ahead of Milestone Birthday
Steve-O is getting ready to turn 50 next month, so like many individuals approaching a milestone birthday, he's decided to embrace the new decade by getting himself back in shape. And over the weekend, the Jackass star showed off an impressive three-month weight loss transformation.
"These photos are three months and TWENTY POUNDS apart!" Steve-O, whose real name is Stephen Glover, posted to Instagram on Saturday. "My 50th birthday is next month, and I decided to kick Father Time in the nuts as hard as I can by getting as healthy as possible. Ranch life is good, thanks so much to [Jay M. Catron] for shooting my sexy 'after' shots!"
In the accompanying before and after photos, the 49-year-old can be seen sporting a paunch in a pair of red plaid boxers back in February; next to a comparatively chiseled physique with defined abdominal muscles while wearing a revealing leopard print bikini on May 10.
Like many of us in recent years, Steve-O had previously admitted to struggling with his weight. In a May 2021 YouTube video aptly titled "I'm Fatter Than Ever Before," the stuntman briefly lamented about his physical state. "It's bad," he said at the time, showing off his naked torso. "Oh yeah dude, it breaks my heart so bad to admit that that's what's going on with me."
Steve-O famously began following a vegan diet since at least 2010, but years later admitted that he also incorporates fish into his diet.
"I got into being vegan because I was simply looking to benefit from being more compassionate," he told PETA in 2011. "I have since come to learn that it is an animal-based diet that is responsible for the overwhelming majority of cases of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, multiple sclerosis, and all kinds of other problems."
It's unclear what type of diet he's been following to achieve his 20 pounds weight loss, but whatever it is it seems to be working.
