What happened to Brianne Dias on My 600-lb Life?
Brianne shot to fame when she appeared on My 600-lb Life in 2018.
At the time it was revealed she weighed a whopping 787 pounds.
She revealed her weight issues started when her siblings came into the world, which left her feeling like her family ignored her.
Her father, a member of the air force, started to become strict towards Brianne and didn’t like her weight, which she told viewers “affected her mentally”.
She then turned to food for comfort, and gained weight, leading to a downward spiral on her health.
Brianne reached 450 pounds at 20 years old, which continued to increase.
By the time she had gone to Dr. Now for help, she weighed more than 700 pounds and her father had cut off ties with her.
Dr. Now told her that if she did not lose weight, she could be bedbound for life, which gave Brianne the motivation to follow a strict health routine.
Hoping to be approved for weight loss surgery, Brianne ended up losing lost 382 pounds while following Dr. Now’s health program.
She then got the go-ahead to have weight loss surgery.
In May 2021 Brianne revealed since the show she has lost 500lbs.
What happened to Seana Collins on My 600-Lb Life?
Seana Collins’ life was introduced to My 600-Lb Life in early 2020 where she was struggling with her weight and body image.
The 23-year-old lived with her mother in Kansas City, Missouri, and applied to be on the show as she was weighing nearly 700-Lbs.
She met with Dr. Younan Nowzaradan for the first time to go over her health and goals.
She explained her expectations from the visit in the episode, saying: “I’m hoping if I can lose like Dr. Now tells me to lose and I can move down to Texas, that he’ll tell me I can do his program.”
Unfortunately, Seana only managed to lose one pound out of the 80 that was part of her goal, as instructed by Dr. Nowzaradan.
Seana reportedly was never able to qualify for weight loss surgery, according to Reality Blurb.
She managed to lose 30-Lbs but it was still not enough for the procedure.
Seana keeps a relatively low profile on social media and has not updated her fans on her weight loss journey since being on the show.
