The Most Amazing Celebrities & Their Phenomenal Weight Loss Transformation
Austin “Chumlee” Russell – 75lb – No Processed Foods & Junk Food & Intense Workout
Just call him “Chumlee!” While reality television can be hit or miss, the History Channel’s Pawn Stars has certainly been a hit. Following the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop near the heart of Las Vegas, Nevada, one of the most endearing cast members on the show is Austin Russel who is otherwise known as Chumlee. Portrayed as the big and aloof employee, Chumlee likely would’ve been fired years ago if he weren’t already friends with the owner’s son, Corey “Big Hoss” Harrison.
Often referred to as the “village idiot” on the show, Chumlee weighed 320 pounds when his father passed away from pancreatic cancer at the age of 54 in 2009. Knowing that he needed to make a drastic change to his eating habits and lifestyle, Chumlee turned to his girlfriend, Tanya for help. Joining Tanya at the gym and cutting out processed foods and other junk, Chumlee has managed to lose 75 pounds and keep it off; although, he can’t say the same for steering clear of trouble after an arrest in 2016 for firearm and drug possession.
