Lavell Crawford: “I Gave Away $10,000 Worth Of Clothes”

Last week, BlackDoctor.org was the first to report on comedian Lavell Crawford's stunning 120-pound weight loss. Since then, the talented comic continues to do sold out shows all over the country.

In a recent interview on Tuesday, TMZ, caught up with the comic where he revealed what has happened since his weight loss.

"I just want to be healthy. My wife doesn't want me to go under 220 pounds," admits Crawford. "She likes a guy with some size! She married me as a bear, so she don't want to date a bunny rabbit now, (laughter)."
