Post Malone, 28, continued to slowly bulk up in the following years, reaching his heaviest weight of 240 pounds before deciding that a change was needed.
Recently, the Better Now singer has showcased a much slimmer figure, a transformation he has credited to cutting out unhealthy food and soda.
NO DRUGS… OR SODA
Last year, Malone addressed his weight loss while on tour in Antwerp, Belgium with an Instagram post after fans grew concerned about his diminishing weight.
The rapper shared a selfie in his hotel room that showed him with a pair of camouflage-print, alligator-skin cowboy boots beside his head.
The caption read, “4/28/2023, Antwerp Belgium! hello everybody, i hope you’re having a great night.”
He continued, “i wanted to say that i’m not doing drugs, i’ve had a lot of people ask me about my weight loss and i’d suppose, performance on stage.

“I’m having a lot of fun performing, and have never felt healthier. i guess dad life kicked in and i decided to kick soda, and start eating better so i can be around for a long time for this little angel.”
Malone welcomed a daughter with his fiancee in May 2022.
He then joked, “next up is smokes and brews, but i like to consider myself a patient man… lol!
The Congratulations rapper also revealed that he was “the happiest” he’d been in a long time and told fans, “if you’re having a hard time or need some love, i can say that you’re loved more than you know, and keep f**king crushing it.”
In the post’s comment section, one fan wrote, “You actually look amazing, healthy and even just your face looks like [you’re] ten years younger than before your healthy lifestyle changes.
“Keep up the great work.”
“You look amazing! So awesome for you and your little princess,” commented another.
A third commenter added, “Glad 2 hear it keep inspiring!”

SAVED BY HOT SAUCE
On October 17, 2023, Malone revealed his secret to losing weight, or more accurately his secret to enjoying bland food, during an appearance on The Howard Stern Show.
Stern, 70, told Malone, “I gotta compliment you, I mean you’re wearing a heavy coat but you’ve lost a s**t load of weight. Not on Ozempic, you did it the old-fashioned way, right?”
The Austin artist bashfully accepted the praise before the radio host asked, “What did you do? Because you look good.”
Malone replied, “The first step was, I remember I went on tour and I was like, ‘You know what? I’m going to eat grilled chicken, I’m going to eat carrots, and I’m going to have a little bit of white rice, every night.”
He revealed that he ate the healthy meals with hot sauce, as he exclaimed, “Hot sauce has no calories in it! I was blown away!”
Stern matched the singer’s excitement as he stated, “Something good that doesn’t have calories. It’s crazy.”
Malone continued, “I remember on tour I stopped eating a lot of fried stuff, a lot of pizza, all that stuff.
He explained that he would eat fast food and junk food on tour because that’s all that would be available to him after a show.
“It’s like, what’s really open? And it’s always like, you know, greasy stuff,” Malone complained.
He revealed he lost “twenty pounds” just by making his own food while on tour adding, “And I was like, ‘Let’s keep going.'”
HEAVYWEIGHT
Malone was perhaps at his heaviest while filming the 2024 Road House remake.
The Jake Gyllenhaal-led action film began principal photography in August 2022.

Malone played Carter, a burly bare-knuckle fighter who’s the king of the underground fighting ring.
A barechested Malone showed off his hefty physique in the early minutes of the movie, where he was shown pummeling an overmatched contender before refusing to fight Gyllenhaal’s Dalton.
BAD BOY
Malone went more in-depth about his weight loss when he guested on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast in August 2023.
Right at the start Rogan stated, “Dude you look f**king great. I told you that when I saw you but I want to tell you on air.
“You look f**king great man. You said you lost 60 [pounds].
Malone responded, “I was like 240 [pounds] now I’m like 185.”
The comedian replied, “That’s amazing. And you did it just by cutting out soda [and] doing a lot of shows.”
“Like shows [and] soda,” Malone confirmed before adding, “Soda’s so bad.”
He revealed that he’s a “bad boy” so he’ll have a Monster Energy drink every once and a while.
Rogan agreed, stating, “The key to those things is every now and then.
Malone revealed that he now thinks of soda as a reward.
“I had a great show, I’m feeling a little bit naughty, I’m going to have myself Coke on ice,” he told the podcast host.
