My 600-lb Life star Joyce’s update is on fans’ minds after the 2020 TLC star failed to meet her weight loss goals. She was one of the show’s heaviest at 758lb (343kg). What’s the latest on Joyce?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Now<\/a> spends his days helping morbidly obese people reach their weight goals so that they can qualify for weight loss surgery. One of his clients was Joyce on My 600-lb Life<\/a>. She sought Dr. Now’s help when it got to a point where she couldn’t do normal tasks and felt severely depressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Who is Joyce from My 600-lb Life?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Joyce from My 600-lb Life’s weight problems began at a young age when her parents got divorced. By age 20, she was 400lb and she had reached over 750lb when she reached 44 years old.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She had got down to 600lb but still struggled with the smallest of tasks, needing a friend to help her bathe and move around. Dr. Now offered her the chance to change for the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, he grew increasingly impatient when she didn\u2019t lose the weight she needed. She was in a critical condition, which included having mobility issues due to her short height, which is 4ft 11in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
