South Carolina’s Cole Prochaska weighed nearly 600lbs two years ago. Fearing for his life, he made a bold choice: “I didn’t want to die young. I decided to take my life back.”
Through strict dieting, daily walks, and regular workouts, Cole lost over 336lbs. Sharing shirtless progress photos, he admitted, “It’s very hard… but I’ve come so far.” Though many doubted him, Cole never lost faith in himself.
His transformation went viral, earning praise and inspiring others to begin their own health journeys. One person commented, “You inspired me to start… I need to lose 120lbs.”
Despite reaching his weight goal, Cole now faces a new hurdle—removing excess skin. He launched a GoFundMe, saying, “My life is not complete until I can get rid of this.” With over 361lbs lost and more to go, Cole’s message is simple: “Believe in yourself. You can do anything.”
