Just like moving down in weight isn&#8217;t easy either. You have to have the right people in your corner. You have to have doctors and nutritionists etc.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Although, I don&#8217;t have a nutritionist as I am from the south. We cook our own food, we know how to get that s*** right.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;But, a lot of people do [have a nutritionist] and I think you are meant too, especially towards the end of things. But, when you now how to cook and you&#8217;ve got awesome food around you, you don&#8217;t need all of that.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>When asked how he felt at the new weight, Charlo said:\u00a0&#8216;Making the weight shouldn&#8217;t be an issue.
