WATCH: How Bogart the Explorer lost 100 lbs in 9 months

By Cherry Sun

YouTube comedian Bogart the Explorer is making the rounds again on different social media platforms not exactly because of a new content but because of his new look.

The viral internet sensation from Davao City has successfully shed off 100 lbs in less than a year!

Bogart, whose real name is Marco Antonio Ho, now sports a leaner physique--downsizing from double extra large to extra small in just about nine months.


Bogart shared how he lost weight in his latest video on his Youtube channel called PaperbugTV.

“I found a good combination between intermittent fasting and surfing or skating,” he explained.

“I lost a hundred pounds. That's exactly a hundred pounds.

“I started in January of this year 'coz I wasn't gonna be an idiot and miss out on eating all the holiday food.

“Nine months later, around the same time for a newborn to get born, I too was reborn,” he continued.

Bogart also admitted that he found inspiration in his daughter Music to take on healthier choices.

He said, “When she was born, I honestly told myself that I wanna be there for when she grows up.

“That meant living a healthier lifestyle than what I used to live.

“Eventually, I also realized that I was also doing it for myself.

“And then when I did lose a significant amount of weight, I realized that I could move a lot better, I could do a lot more things like surf, and skate, cross my legs, tie my shoe laces without holding my breath.”
