Graham Elliot – 250 Pounds
Celebrity Chef Graham Elliot is best known for being one of the original judges of Masterchef US. Being surrounded by food daily didn’t help when it came to maintaining a healthy weight, as a result of which he ended up weighing 400 pounds. Fearing health complications, the chef decided to embark on a journey to a healthier life. The first stop, of course, was weight loss. Avoiding sauces, sweets, and pasta entirely and taking up online classes help Elliot lose an impressive 250 pounds. In 2014, he added another achievement to his journey by running his first full marathon.
