Ben Napier’s weight loss transformation resulted in him losing 95 pounds total. While the HGTV star’s journey was initially inspired by his daughter Helen, a shoulder injury and the fitting of his clothes kept him on track. In March 2023, Erin Napier revealed that Ben had work done on his rotator cuff, bone spur, and cartilage in an Instagram post. “We’re all trying to be healthier and trying to live longer,” he told Entertainment Tonight in November 2023. “I started just [because I knew] I needed to take some weight off. And then we did an interview, and my shirt wouldn’t stay buttoned and I was like ‘Oh, that’s a bad look.'” However, when a doctor suggested he go on blood pressure medication, Ben decided to crank his weight loss journey up to the next level.
“I was like, ‘I’m too young,’ At the time, I wasn’t even 40. So I said, ‘Let me see if we can drop it by losing weight.” In the same interview, Erin gushed about her husband’s hard work and even offered insight into the diet plan he adopted to help him achieve his transformation. “I like only eat ‘girl dinner,’ which is basically crackers for two meals a day. I just crave crackers and maybe a little cheese… Ben just basically adopted eating the way I was eating,” she explained. “He has one big meal. He eats a good, healthy, big lunch.”
