YouTuber Nicholas Perry, widely recognized as Nikocado Avocado, has shocked his audience with a stunning announcement about his weight loss journey. In a recent video, Perry revealed that he has shed over 250 pounds (approximately 114 kg) over the past two years, all while managing to post regular content.

This revelation came in his video titled ‘Two Steps Ahead’, which has quickly gone viral, racking up over 20 million views. In the video, Perry confessed that he had been using pre-recorded content to maintain his channel's activity while undergoing his weight loss transformation. The video opens with Perry in a panda head costume, declaring, “I am always two steps ahead.”

Describing his weight loss experience as “the greatest social experiment of my entire life,” Perry commented on how people engage with online content and rivalries. “It’s concerning, it’s captivating, it’s engrossing to watch all these disoriented individuals online searching for stories and rivalries that keep them engaged,” he said.

In the video he also provided more details on how he managed to keep his YouTube channel running while focusing on his health. He revealed that he had not created any new videos for the past two years but had been sharing older content to keep his channel active. The video showed Perry eating a large plate of spicy cheese noodles, reminiscent of his previous content.

In his striking statement, Perry said, “Two steps ahead, I am always two steps ahead. This has been the greatest social experiment of my entire life. It's alluring, it’s compelling, and it’s gripping to observe all these unwell disoriented beings roam the internet and search for stories and ideas. Rivalries where they feel encouraged and engaged and where they involve themselves with the stories and become a product of influence thirsty for distraction from time unspent. Spoiling their minds yet stimulating them at the same time. It's brilliant and it's dangerous. I feel as if I'm monitoring ants on an ant farm. One follows another follows another follows another. It's mesmerising, it's spellbinding all these little consumers, all of these lost and bored people.

People can consume anything that they're told to consume. So, I am the villain because I've made myself one and you will continue to consume these stories about me year after year for as long as I tell the internet that I am the villain. Stories that permeate and linger and infect the minds of the ants influence and brainwash them. You are the ants. Today I woke up from a very long dream. And I also woke up having lost 250 lbs off of my body. Just yesterday people were calling me fat and sick and boring and irrelevant. People are the most messed up creatures on the entire planet and yet I've still managed to stay two steps ahead of everyone. So the joke's on you.”

Several fans reacted to his jaw-dropping weightloss. One X user wrote, “Nikocado Avocado single-handedly fooled the entire internet by making thousands if not millions ON PRE RECORDED CONTENT?? while he was working on his health and weight loss journey??”
