If you need that extra motivation to shed those 10 or 15 lbs to get right, look no further than Mike Jones, who has lost the equivalent of a small woman by eating fresh via Subway:

Rapper MIKE JONES has shed a third of his bodyweight – thanks to a diet of Subway sandwiches.

The Still Tippin’ star used to tip the scales at nearly 300 pounds (136 kilograms) – but after embarking on a new exercise regime and special diet of the U.S. sandwich chain, he’s now down to a healthier 190 pounds (86 kilograms).

He tells BallerStatus.com, “I was almost 300 pounds man. I lost almost 100. I’m 190 right now. That goes from eating Subway, running on the treadmill, and watching what I eat.”

Back then they didn’t want him…

Mike Jones! Who??? Mike Jones!

To get the full appreciation of just how much weight he’s lost, check the pics below of a much more rotund Mike Jones.

  • Sawyer

    As a health freak/workout warrior myself, I’m happy to hear about this and hoping more unhealthy people start to eat right and exercise more. Not to be thin but to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

  • Black Beauty

    Wow, he cleaned up well! Can’t hate, this is a good look for him.

  • soulwoman

    Looking good.

  • Nina Knows

    Hey Purpple!!!! I missed my friend!

    Girl subway is aiight, but he probably worked off most of it… because he actually worked out. oh and probably stop sipping so much sirrup.

  • QUEEN TINA

    Losing that much weight is an accomplishment for sure.
    Wonder if he has a 6 pack, 8 pack or 12 pack

  • brooklynsdondivo

    He aiiiiight but still, no Tyson Beckford!!! Chop!!!!

  • eveinthegarden

    Good for him!

  • hey

    good for him, but i have to say he never looked as big as 300 pounds wow ! jeez man have it so much easier, they can eat subway and lose weight, lol if a woman ate that much bread every day she would get huge from the carbs, not fair !

    as a side note, im sure he would have lost the weight with exercising and eating right, i think the subway add in was because he probably wants to pic up an endorsement lol…you know music doesn’t pay much anymore.

  • SOMER

    I wish more brothas would follow. It took me forever to find a slender man that was not suspect in Atl. At the gym all you see are queens. When brothas saw women fighting over Biggies fat ass, all of a sudden they just start letting themselves go.
