Man Who Lost 210 Pounds In A Year Deletes His Instagram Because He Was Bullied For ‘Transformation’ Pic
Meet “The Walking Joey”:
He is an incredible man who has been spending the past year trying to reach his weight loss goals. He has been doing this through diet and exercise, which culminated in him completing a 5k run recently!
Joey has been an inspiration to thousands of people online from his YouTube channel and Instagram account.
Except Joey isn’t on Instagram anymore.
Joey recently suspended his Instagram account after hordes of trolls swarmed his “Transformation” picture that showed his progress in losing a whooping 210 pounds in the last year.
Instead of celebrating his success, hundreds of people posted mean and nasty comments on Joey’s picture, leading him to take his Instagram account offline.
Since then, however, hundreds of people have rallied to Joey, giving him his love and support.
