Benjamin Montanez<\/strong><\/em>, a 33-year-old from California<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, is now blowing up the internet as a heart-throb after losing 100lbs. He says the change came about after his ex-wife told him that he was “too fat to love” and admitted to having an affair.<\/p>\n

“Me and my ex would get in arguments over my weight and my health<\/a> pretty regularly. [My wife] would constantly tell me that I was too fat to love – that my weight made me unattractive and even that I was so fat the idea of having sex with me made her sick to her stomach.”<\/em><\/p>\n

That’s when Ben decided that something should be done about his weight<\/a><\/strong><\/em>. He began going to the gym<\/a> regularly and changing his eating habits – which lead him to drop down to a much healthier, 240lbs. Now, he’s at the centre of attention on social media for being an absolute stud.<\/p>\n

Ben said: “I have gotten quite the support from a ton of people. I have the best Instagram<\/a><\/strong><\/em> and Facebook followers a guy could ask for. I try to talk to and reply to everyone that comments or messages me on either of my accounts.”<\/p>\n

\"Ben<\/p>\n

\"Ben<\/p>\n

Ben’s target weight is 225lbs and says that he does not want to be skinny. He says that he is naturally a plus-sized guy and thinks that 225lbs would suit him nicely. The correct question now would be, who’s laughing now?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
