One man's shocking transformation after losing over 70kg -- it's not what you would imagine

He looks pretty buff, but that is not the point.

Youtuber John David Glaude posted a pretty daring video detailing the results of his transformative weight loss.

After losing 160 pounds, or over 70kg, John has a ripped body at first glance.

However, it is actually a whole different story.

Due to the rapid weight loss, John now has a ton of loose skin all over his body.

He looks slightly freaky, to be honest.

He calls it his biggest insecurity, and we can see why.

Although it is "not ideal", he says that it is "okay" that he looks like that.

His "okay" is not even a "it's acceptable" kind of "okay", it is more of a "I've accepted it because this is what I am and I'm not going to let it stop me" kind of "okay".

John is truly inspiring. He tried to achieve "the perfect body", but despite his failure, he took it in his stride, something all of us should do.

Like he says, you should never let anything stop you from going for your dreams, and definitely not something as superficial as your looks.

So the next time you look in a mirror and your brain starts going "okay this is not good you're not perfect", watch his video.

Hopefully you will be inspired to love yourself more today.
