Health will always be wealth. Quinton Aaron, star of the 2009 film “The Blind Side,” recently showcased his 200-pound weight loss.
The 41-year-old actor took to Instagram to share his before-and-after photos. “Good Morning Beautiful People! God is Good! I am overwhelmed and blessed to announce that I have reached another cool Milestone in my life,” he began. “Today when weighing myself, I noticed that I reached the 200 pound marker.”
Aaron revealed that he weighed 575 pounds at one point, but through hard work and discipline, he dropped down to 375. Also, he isn’t done yet. “I have 55 more pounds to go to reach my over all goal of 320lbs… I GOT THIS!!!” Check out the post below and follow his journey to 320.
Aaron has documented part of his weight transformation over the last year. In July, he celebrated dropping 150 pounds and suited up for the occasion in an Instagram post. “I just wanna say I always look good in a suit if I might say so myself but, dammit if I don’t look #supafly rockin the #bowtie and being 150lbs lighter in this picture than the one on the left,” he wrote.
The Bronx native, like many, struggled with binge eating during the COVID-19 pandemic. “Food was my drug,” he told The Recovery Vow podcast this past September. “I was eating when I wasn’t even hungry. Just going out and buying food and sitting in my car in the parking lot, eating it and crying and not knowing why. I’m like, ‘Why do I feel this way?’”
He told TMZ in 2022 that he was going to commit to the gym and change his diet so that he could lead a healthier lifestyle. Evidently, he kept his word, and the proof is in the results.
