Would it be a reality show if there weren’t twists, turns, and a whole lot of unfiltered drama? No. Reality shows can indeed be staged or “fake,” but more often than not, reality shows can inspire a massive personal change in their contestants. The TLC hit My 600-Lb Life is an inspirational show that follows everyday people on their personal experiences regarding their weight, various surgeries, procedures, and lifestyle changes to deal with their obesity. The show’s contestants have gone through a lot during their time on the show. And more than most have gone on to live delighted lives. A weight-loss journey is not an easy one, and it took months, if not years, for them to create a body they’re content with. So, if you’re wondering what became of the most popular contestants on this show, we have rounded up their inspirational stories.
Charity Pierce – 800 Pounds
Season 3 cast member, Charity Pierce, was nearly 800 pounds at the time of filming and underwent a massive shift with Dr. Nowzaradan’s guidance to reach a state where she felt comfortable with her weight. Her almost 800-pound weight was cut in half after she had a liposuction procedure, and recently she’s been occupying herself with other activities. Her daughter Carly has struggled with her weight. And Charity has been helping her reach her own goals, and together they’ve been keeping themselves in shape.
Milla Clark – 751 Pounds
Milla Clark weighed 751 pounds when viewers first saw her on season 4. Milla needed her children’s assistance with hygiene, feeding her, and overall caring for her because she was bedridden. After an apparent life-saving double knee replacement and liposuction, she broke My 600-Lb Life records when she lost over 600 pounds. As of late, Milla had recovered and is now completely mobile and active, not only in her lifestyle but social media. So give this queen a follow!
