Justin McSwain, once weighing 683 pounds, lived in isolation and struggled with food addiction. A talented web designer, his earnings fueled his weight gain.
After weight loss surgery, he became an inspirational speaker, focusing on the importance of mental and physical health. By 2021, he enjoyed activities like hiking and biking, and in 2023, he kayaked through North Carolina’s Outer Banks. Now, he works as a craftsman, creating projects like wooden gifts and a coop for his ducks.
