In March, Kevin Maginnis embarked on a 100-day journey to lose 50 pounds by only eating McDonald's. Now that he's finished the challenge, he shared the results on the TODAY show on June 1.
When the 57-year-old started going viral for his unusual weight loss methodology, he raised plenty of eyebrows. But by day 43, he had already lost 33 pounds.
On Thursday, Maginnis stopped by Studio 1A to celebrate the last day of his unconventional experiment and revealed that he'd lost 58.5 pounds. When he started, he weight 238 pounds and he's now down to 179.5 pounds.
“I feel amazing,” he said on TODAY.
Maginnis' methods were quite straightforward: Eat three meals a day from the fast food chain, but cut the portions in half. He also skipped snacks and only drank water, about 80 to 90 ounces a day.
Maginnis said his bloodwork shows that his health has improved. He said he lowered his level of triglycerides, a type of fat that circulates in the body, by 205 points and his cholesterol by 65 points.
Beforehand, Maginnis was prediabetic, but he said his A1C levels (which measures your average blood sugar levels over the past three months) are now in a healthy range.
Halfway through the challenge, Maginnis’ wife, Melody, joined him. In 40 days, she’s lost 17 pounds, her husband shared. |
