Instead of losing weight the traditional way, Funk Flex opted for Liposuction and posted some of the process on social media.

In justifying his choice to so publically undergo man surgery, he called out a few other rappers who he hears also had the procedure done.  [Jump to 1:02]

“I went public with it just because I thought everyone did," Funk Flex explained on one of Gillie Da Kid's podcasts. "Now, I can't say I seen, but I can say, you know, I did, to my knowledge, Drake and Kanye and LL Cool J and people like that, that's what they were doing. When I called and I got in touch with the guy who did it for me, I was recommended because current football players and current boxers go to him."

The surgery dropped Flex from 290 to 210.  However, there is a long recovery process.
