“I can’t preach body positivity and hide who I am.”

When 22-year-old Matt Diaz was 16 years old, he weighed 495 pounds. Over the last six years, he’s managed to lose 270 pounds, which gets him loads of compliments about his appearance, but doesn’t negate the low self-esteem years of obesity yielded.

“Body image isn’t something that just goes away when you start getting attention,” he said in a previous video.

In particular, he still feels insecure because of the rolls of excess skin that he was left with following his remarkable weight loss.
