Lacy stuns fans after shedding over 100 pounds in under 2 years, now down to 199 from over 300

Lacy is shocking fans with his physical transformation.

In side-by-side comparison photos circulating online, the Twitch streamer and FaZe Clan member can be seen looking heavy-set in one and buff in the other. In 2023, he reportedly weighed 300 pounds, a stark comparison to his current weight of 199.

Fans have since begun reacting to the transformation with shock and appreciation, with many lauding him for his dedication. Here's how one fan reacted, for instance:

"To lead by example is to be a genuine influencer, love to see this."

The comments didn't end there, though there were a few naysayers who claimed he could do better.

"Ozempic and adderall that'll do," one user speculated.

"Its not hard to lose 100lbs in 2 years lol," someone else claimed.

"Ozempic really does wonders," yet another added.

"This is actually a very good improvement wow," one fan penned.

Here's how the rest of X is reacting:

"It’s amazing what you can achieve when you stay consistent—natural weight loss always beats quick fixes in the long run," one user appreciated.

"good shi bro, that’s impressive," another cheered on.

"This is so awesome, congratulations," yet another added.

"W Lacy, according to him, that journey of fasting AND to keep on moving definitely must have been hard on his mental. Fw him for that heavy," someone else chimed in.

Users were visibly happy for the media personality, though a large number of them also called him out for his alleged use of Ozempic.

Lacy says he's taking a break from streaming: Here's what we know

Lacy, whose real name is Nick, recently announced that he would be taking a break from livestreaming. On April 22, 2025, he took to his X community, Lacy Thugs, to share a two-minute video, noting that he wants to be "honest and transparent."

He divulged feeling like the world was against him and that "everyone hated him." Adding that he had been "victimizing himself" to deal with the "bad decisions" he has been making, he said,

"I talked to people around me and realized that I was in this state of mind where I saw everything people were saying because of the decisions I was making. And I thought it was me against the world, everyone hates me, and I was victimizing myself, to be honest, and trying to use that to cope, knowing I was making bad decisions. I'm going to explain to you guys where I'm at mentally or where I've been mentally over these past few weeks, months."

He also noted that his friends were upset with him for allowing "other people to take advantage of him."

"I know my friends are upset with me, and I let them down. It hurts me more than anything because those are the people I love and genuinely care about. And seeing them upset with me because I'm not putting myself first, and I'm letting other people take advantage of me over and over, and over again. And not only me, but we as a group, and that hurts me."

Lacy, who reflected on his love for streaming, also noted that his passion had been dwindling over the last few months.

"Mentally, in general, I started this s**t because I genuinely enjoyed streaming. I fell in love with it. Going live every day, having fun, excited to stream, and over the past few months, I've slowly seen that slipping away, and I think it's because I see my community slipping into this toxic state of every move being judged under a microscope. And I haven't really handled it the best."

The 22-year-old noted that he had to take a break from streaming to "recalibrate himself."

"I've made bad decisions. I've been over-emotional and I really need to step back and recalibrate that because that puts a cap at where I can take it, and where we as a community can really take this s**t."

At the time of writing, it remains unclear just how long Lacy plans on staying away from streaming, though he did reveal that he would be staying with Richard "FaZe Banks" for "a little bit."
