Dangerously Obese introduced viewers to Yolanda in Episode 3 of Season 1. Her case of obesity and need to lose weight was immediate, but her obesity story was unique, nothing like what had been seen on the show before.
Yolanda Mitchell hailed from Voldosta, GA, and when she first appeared, she had limited mobility and was being cared for by her children. What was the story behind her weight gain? What made her want to change? Where is she now? Full scoop below.

When Yolanda was first introduced in the show, she was seen ordering a massive order for herself. The TLC “Dangerously Obese” star shared the story of how she reached her size. What started as posting photos of herself, as a larger woman, quickly escalated into feederism. She was being paid hefty money to eat a lot of food on camera. The Man-Magnet seems to have attracted the wrong kind of men.
On her first appearance in Doctor Procter’s office, her weight was as expected. At 502 pounds, the doctor didn’t immediately recommend surgery. Yolanda shared how the active income from feederism helped her continue to grow. But when she needed to change her life, Dr Procter told her to lose 40 pounds in two months. When she succeeded in losing it, the doctor put her up for surgery.
In a new clip from TLC, Yolanda, star of “Dangerously Obese,” has undergone weight loss surgery and appears significantly healthier now. Yolanda had always been a big girl, but when she attracted the wrong kind of men online who paid her to eat on camera, she fell victim to feederism. She earned an active income, which deterred her from seeking help with her weight.
In her journey, Yolanda underwent surgery from Dr Procter. In the latest clip, she showcases her incredible transformation. The post, captioned “Yolanda feels like a new woman as she shows off her 164-lb weight loss!!,” received a lot of support from viewers. Yolanda appears in a black dress and a coloured shrug, visibly thinner. She also has a new haircut, and her glasses are in vogue. Big hoop earrings and gold chains make her look fabulous.
During the big reveal, her family and friends are overjoyed and hypes her up. They cheer and clap for her as she walks in. “You look better now than you did ten years ago”, one of her family members comments. Yolanda is visibly thrilled. Starting from 502 pounds, she has successfully reduced her weight to 382. She has lost 164 pounds, and it shows in her appearance.
Yolanda’s journey is emotional to say the least. Her goal weight is 160 pounds. The reality TV star has undergone an incredible transformation with her weight and now has a better relationship with food. She says her future is now with her children, and she aspires to have a good and healthy life with them. She also aspires to be the best mom.
