“90 Day Fiancé” star Tyray Mollett has been on a weight loss journey and revealed he has lost almost 150 pounds!
The happy announcement came in an Instagram post on Monday, December 15. He added a carousel of images from his weight loss surgery that occurred earlier in the year.
“Earlier this year, I made a tough decision to undergo gastric sleeve surgery. I was terrified, but I knew I needed to make some changes,” he began. “Unfortunately, leading up to the surgery, I gained 10 pounds.”
He added, “So, I started my pre-op diet early. As of today, I’m down 147 pounds! I want to express my gratitude to @centralcaliforniasurgery for their exceptional accommodation and care for me and my family.”
Prior to Mollett announcing how much weight he has dropped, he shared a video on December 10, showing a before-and-after while wearing the same grey sweatshirt.

Mollett’s Weight Loss Journey
Mollett has been on a weight loss journey for a few years now.
In February 2024, he appeared on “The Sarah Fraser Show” podcast and revealed he was thinking about getting gastric bypass surgery.
“I did get in contact with a company based in California but does procedures in Mexico,” he told the host. “I worked out a deal with them to get a gastric sleeve done in April.”
He said he was still deciding on if he would go through with the procedure, even though he already put down a deposit.
Later, Mollett appeared on “90 Day Diaries” in April and talked about how he felt like he needed to lose weight.
“I really need to make these changes and do whatever I can to keep the weight off,” he said. “Because my life depends on it.”
He continued, “Hopefully this will be the start to a new beginning. You know, I’m ready to look like a snack and not eat ‘em.”
