Finding Wellness: Lost Actor Jorge Garcia’s Inspiring Journey to a Healthier Lifestyle

I am far from the only one who has enjoyed the mysterious TV series “Lost” for years, I think. The first seasons were excellent, to put it mildly.

However, the quality of the series unfortunately declined over the years.

One of the actors who left the biggest impression on me was the character Hurley, portrayed by Jorge Garcia. Hurley was an overweight fast-food restaurant worker who had won the lottery and found himself on the famous Flight 815.

At the beginning of the series, Hurley was a comedic character, but his role changed over the years to a more serious one, that of a leader.


“I loved his character and I knew he had a good chance of becoming a fan favorite. The audience is always happy to see him,” the actor told Associated Press.

After the success of “Lost,” Jorge Garcia appeared in various other series and films including the popular police series Hawaii Five-O.

But perhaps it was his weight loss that became the major topic of conversation in recent years. The now 47-year-old actor is seen as a role model for people who want to lose weight.

Jorge grew up in California, and was a big boy from an early age. He often took part in wrestling tournaments and was nicknamed “Babyface Killer.”

But even though Jorge was much heavier than most of his classmates, he was always accepted. He felt good in his body and was happy.
