Video: This guy shows the rarely seen side of weight loss

When Matt Diaz was just 16-years-old he weighed nearly 225 kilos and after six years of hard work and exercise, he lost over 120 kilos.

Despite this massive weight loss, he is still not confident about removing his shirt as he was left with large amounts of excess skin.

He recorded this video as a way of showing the world the side of weight loss that many of us don't see.

Matt is trying to spread the message of confidence with this video, saying that even though he struggles with it, it is very important to be happy with yourself no matter how you look.
