Someone else commented: “You look 10 years younger.”
But not everyone was happy with his triumph and tried to take aim at celebrities and their wealth.
One person wrote: “I love Steveo but I’m getting so tired of famous people acting like it’s so easy to lose weight. The common person does not have the connections like stop.”

Another said: “With or without ozempic?”
The star has been pretty open with his dedication to keeping on the path of a better life and recently spoke about a time he allegedly asked talk-show host Bill Maher not to smoke marijuana during it as to protect his sobriety.
According to Steve-O, Maher refused, so he cancelled the interview and fans were enraged by Maher’s alleged refusal to cater to a guest.
According to Variety, Steve-O claimed Maher said that not being able to smoke weed was a ‘dealbreaker’ for their interview and so it didn’t go ahead.

LADbible Group previously contacted Maher's reps for comment.
