My 600 LB Life: Irene’s Not-So-Ideal Life
The last released episode of My 600 LB Life brought up the journey of Irene Walker. She is a 39-year-old woman living in Houston, Texas. Irene weighs 603.7 lbs. Everyone’s life is difficult in their particular manner, but Irene’s was the worst. She had to face the separation of her parents and bullying, causing drug and food addiction. The chain of loss and gain didn’t stop here. Her enormous weight took away the rights of her children. She lost all three of them.
Well, her husband left him way before, the moment he got to know about Irene’s pregnancy. All she was left with was her niece, Mimi, caretaker Cameo, and son Jacory. Meanwhile, Irene’s health deteriorated day by day. Therefore, she decided to enroll herself with Dr. Now. He suggested her to lose weight so as to go through the weight loss surgery. Had Irene been able to lose weight? If yes, then how much?
My 600 LB Life: Did Irene Walker Lose Weight? How Much?
It’s always easy to gain weight but takes a lot to cut it off. Irene Walker has a food addiction, and it’s not easy to drop the addiction at a single take. However, she tried her best to make things fall on the right side. Irene was asked to lose 60 lbs, to weigh 543 lbs, for the surgery. Irene was not in good condition when she started the weight loss program. Her extra weight caused an effect on her lungs, because of which she has a severe coughing fit and she also passes out.
Irene Walker disappointed Dr. Now by only losing only 5 lbs at her second consultation. Moreover, she didn’t even come to the point of 543 lbs. Dr. Now, being concerned about Irene’s health, stated that he will fire her if the weight doesn’t go down the next time. Well, she was not able to meet expectations even after that. Thankfully, the lockdown happened, and Irene got motivated by Dr. Now’s words on the video call. She thoroughly went for a walk and enrolled herself in Cameo’s gym. Irene put all her efforts together and finally made it down to 535 lbs. She now crossed the wight line suggested by Dr. Now for surgery. It means she could finally get off all extra fat through surgery.
Did Irene Had Surgery?
Irene successfully passed the weight goal. She was all ready to go through the surgery. However, the COVID 19 situation affected everything in between. Dr. Now could not schedule his patient for the surgery because of the Pandemic restrictions. Well, Irene has not lost her hope. She has now gained all control over her food addiction. Irene also continues to follow the weight loss goal of 10 pounds per month. She also feels to be happier than she was at the starting of the episode. We wish her surgery to happen soon so as to lead a wonderful life ahead.
