In this episode of My 600 lb Life Where Are They Now?, we follow up on the progress of three past participants: June, Chad, and Pauline. We start with June, who was bedridden and weighed 600 pounds when we first met her. She had a difficult time making any progress due to her immobility and dependency on others for care. However, we learn that June has since undergone weight loss surgery and has been able to shed a significant amount of weight. She has also started physical therapy to help her regain her strength and mobility. June's progress has been slow but steady, and she hopes to continue her weight loss journey to become more independent.
Next, we catch up with Chad, who had a weight of 701 pounds and had a severe food addiction.

Chad now spends his time with his family, enjoying activities he once could not participate in.
Lastly, we see the progress of Pauline, who once weighed 678 pounds and had a serious addiction to food.
