Images showcasing FaZe Clan member Nick "Lacy's" weight loss journey over the course of a year have been making the rounds on X. The post made by X user @scubaryan_ showcases a before and after view of Lacy, with the first image taken on December 9, 2023, and the second being taken exactly a year later on December 9, 2024.
While looking visibly thinner, Lacy has seemingly grown out his facial hair as well in his latest photo, further giving him a significantly altered appearance compared to a year before.
Many netizens reacted to the post with surprise and commended the streamer for his commitment towards his weight loss goals over the past year:
"Incredible progress, talk about dedication and hard work!" wrote X user @Aleeha1280007
"You can clearly realize how he feels better and looks better after the weight loss. Big W for him" wrote X user @kingflaymes
"Honestly, I gotta respect it," wrote X user @YngJackieAprile
"Nah lacy really had the glow up of the century," wrote X user @XsnlR6
On the other side, some users speculated that the streamer's loss in size was due to him making use of medications meant to aid weight loss:
"Couldn’t have done it without ozempic!" wrote X user @NFTA55
"Ozempic bro," wrote X user @AlphaRondo
Why did FaZe Lacy claim his ad revenue was "reduced" by Twitch?
FaZe Lacy talked about his ad revenue supposedly being "reduced" by Twitch, in a clip that was uploaded to X on November 15, 2024. He stated that despite not creating content revolving around politics or using controversial tags for his broadcasts, he is "not getting ad revenue".
To substantiate his claims, he stated that his ad revenue had gone down from more than $10,000 per day to $2,000 a day. Further, he claimed that he would rather be a "mailman" than stream on the platform, and asked Twitch to "fix" his ad revenue.
FaZe Clan recently won the Best Content Organization award at The Streamer Awards 2024. However, the Clan and its members came under fire for trying to recreate Kanye West's iconic Grammy image by seemingly urinating on the awards they had received at the ceremony.
