Brothers Weighed 660 lbs Each and Started Losing Weight: Minus 440 lbs Each! – What Do They Look Like?
Two brothers, now in their mid-30s, have found themselves trapped in their own bodies, each weighing nearly 600 lbs. Their excessive weight has made even the simplest tasks, like walking or standing, a monumental challenge.
One brother, unable to be weighed on standard scales, is a prisoner in his own home. He spends his days confined to the couch, unable to share a bed with his wife due to his immense size. The weight has taken a toll on his health, making it difficult to breathe, especially when lying down.
The other brother, Loniya, is a talented hairstylist, but his passion is threatened by his weight. Standing for extended periods is a struggle, forcing him to consider leaving his beloved profession.
Both brothers acknowledge that their current condition stems from a lifelong battle with food addiction. Their journey began in childhood, where overindulgence and unhealthy eating habits were normalized. Their grandmother, driven by love, often expressed it through food, leading to significant weight gain.
As children, they faced bullying and struggled academically. John even dropped out of college, choosing to remain with his grandmother, who continued to enable his unhealthy eating habits.
Recognizing the dire consequences of their situation, the brothers sought help and were accepted into the reality show My 600-lb Life. They hope that the show will provide them with the support and guidance they need to embark on a life-changing journey towards health and well-being.
