My600lblife—Poor Marla Is Still Bedridden And She's Frustrated As Hell

My600lblife Marla bedridden frustrated and desperate to get excess skin surgery so she can finally live life again

On tonight's episode of My600LbLife Where Are They Now? we check back in with season three's Marla McCants from Nashville, Tennessee.

When we first met Marla last year, she was an estimated 800Lbs in weight.

She was bedridden and totally dependent on her daughters, Britney, Sierra and Adele, for her every day needs and care.

As Popdust previously reported, Marla, a self-confessed junk food junkie, was literally eating herself to death—and seemed unable to stop.

Growing up, Marla never had an issue with her weight—but that changed after a deeply traumatic event occurred at the hands of her then-boyfriend.

When Marla tried to break-up with the boyfriend he “lost it".

Like seriously lost it.

He kidnapped Marla, held her at gunpoint and even shot the two police officers who tried to rescue her before she finally managed to escape.

She was terrified to leave the house following the ordeal, and lived in constant fear of the boyfriend tracking her down and kidnapping her again.

Marla turned to junk food for comfort and began seriously overeating.

By the time the boyfriend was finally apprehended, Marla was already 700Lbs and her junk food addiction was firmly ingrained.

Her addiction became so ridiculously out of control that doctors warned the 44-year-old that she may only have weeks to live.

However, with a lot of dedication and hard work, Marla finally managed to lose the pounds required to undergo weight loss surgery.

Eight months on and she has continued to drop the pounds—an astounding 266 of them!

Marla is now down to 534 pounds—but, the excess skin she's been left with following her drastic weight loss, is seriously hampering her mobility.

So, despite all her hard work and discipline, Marla is still pretty much bedridden.

And, not surprisingly, she's frustrated as hell.

My600LbLife Joe’s Extreme Weight Loss Gives Him New Lease On Life

My600LbLife Joes extreme weight loss is truly inspirational

On tonight’s My600LbLife Where are They Now? We check back in on Joe Wexler.

Joe has come on leaps and bounds since his story was first documented last year.

As Popdust previously reported, trapped inside an 800Lb body, Joe’s quality of life was nonexistent.

He had lost his job, was no longer able to drive, was mostly housebound and dependent on his mother to care for him.

Things became so bad for poor Joe that he had even contemplated suicide, and he was clearly struggling with both mental and physical pain.

After working with a therapist, Joe slowly started to re-gain control of his emotions, before then going on to address his physical ones.

He successfully managed to lose the 150 pounds needed to be able to undergo weight loss surgery—and, now he is flourishing!

Joe has lost a whopping 200Lbs over the past year, and is firmly on track to do the same this year.

The change in Joe’s mood and demeanor is amazing—it’s like night and day!

He’s clearly proud of his amazing achievement—as he should be—and he’s relishing the new lease on life he’s been afforded.

Joe’s able to be fully mobile and to care for himself.

He goes to the gym, and he can even fit back behind the steering wheel of a car once again.

Oh, and Joe’s finally ready for love—he even has a girlfriend now!

And, things are going so well between the two of them that he’s getting ready to propose to her.

But, with love and marriage on his mind, Joe’s eager to get rid of all the excess skin he’s been left with following his extreme weight loss.

So, he’s trying to qualify for skin surgery.

To find out if Joe’s successful—and if the girlfriend says “yes!”—tune in to My600Lb Life: Where are They Now? tonight at 9/8c on TLC.

My600LbLife Susan’s Excess Skin Is Seriously Hampering Her Freedom

my600lblife susan’s excess skin

Tonight’s episode of My600Lb Life: Where Are They Now? documents Susan's weight loss journey.

Susan has come on leaps and bounds since her weight loss surgery.

As Popdust previously reported, Susan has struggled with her weight since she was a small child—but things took a turn for the worse following a violent altercation with her father, when she was 17.

Before surgery, she was unable to even walk around the supermarket without sitting down every couple of minutes.

But now, she is able to walk for two miles plus without a problem.

She is also using a friend’s pool to swim and exercise every day.

Susan explains that her doctor wants her to get her weight below 300Lb before he will perform surgery to remove all the excess skin that has formed following her drastic weight loss.

So, she is working hard to reach that goal.

Susan is desperate for the surgery, as the weight of all the skin is causing her serious back pain.

“I don’t think I can live a normal life without the surgery,” she admits.

“I know it sounds kinda silly, but the first thing I am going to do, once the skin is removed, is that I am going to get a pair of jeans.

“Because I haven’t worn a pair of jeans since high school.”

Now, how bad can the excess skin problem be?

Well, brace yourselves, because Susan shows us exactly how horrific it can be—and it is truly not for the faint of heart.

“This is lymphedema,” she explains, as she lifts the large roll of skin. “It’s really heavy and pulls on my whole body.

“And then also, I have this hidden piece of lymphedema hidden underneath, that gets really bothersome.

“This whole belly just needs to go. Having it gone will be like being set free from prison.

“I just hope I’ve lost enough weight when I see the doctor, that we can just get this done.”

My600LbLife Christina

On tonight’s episode of My600LbLife—Where Are They Now? We get to check in on Christina.

Christina has dropped an absolutely incredible 300Lb—and her extreme weight loss has revolutionized her life.

As Popdust previously reported, when her story was featured back in 2014, Christina’s weight had ballooned to over 670 pounds.

My600LbLife—Ashley Drops 400Lbs Then Slams Into Weight Loss Wall

The then-23-year-old hadn’t left her home for two years due to her size, and was reliant on her husband Zach and her mom, for her everyday needs.

Confined to a wheelchair, couch and bed 24-7, Christina’s depression sunk to such bad depths that she had even attempted to take her own life.

In a last ditch effort to save herself, Christina underwent weight loss surgery—and, to say the result has been amazing, would be an understatement.

However, as many learn the hard way, surgery isn’t the be-all-and-end-all when it comes to keeping the weight off.

Christina committed—and stuck—to a radical change in eating habits though, and her new healthy diet combined with the surgery, has resulted in her 300Lb weight loss.

She also divorced Zach, after determining he was an enabler when it came to her overeating—and she is in a new, loving relationship, with a long time friend.

Christina looks absolutely amazing, and, it would seem, from the outside, that she has every reason to be loving life.

But, her depression has returned once again, and, despite her extreme weight loss, she still views herself as “the fat girl.”

Gain brings shame my600lblife ashley hits wall

When she was featured earlier this season, the mom-of-one’s extreme weight had seriously hampered her mobility, and she was so ashamed of how she looked, she rarely left the house.

Adding to her woes, Ashley feared that if she didn’t manage to get a grip on her over-eating, she would soon be unable to look after herself in any way.

As it was, Ashley’s son Patrick had been saddled with providing pretty much full time care for his mom.

The young boy was running all of his mom’s errands, and carrying out the majority of the housework—something, no 5-year-old child should be subjected to.

Ashley eventually underwent bypass surgery in the hope of gaining control of her body once again.
