With patients first gracing the small screen at hundreds of pounds over their ideal weight,

their emotional and inspirational journeys to embracing healthier bodies have fans coming

But just which Life-ers have made the biggest transformations?

These are the reality stars from My 600lb Life who have done a complete 180.

When she first appeared on the show, Angel Parrish weighed 570 pounds and was relying

on her boyfriend, Donnie, for everyday needs.

She said that her eating habits had been triggered by the trauma of placing a baby for adoption

when she was 14, and things worsened when she later experienced postpartum depression

Donnie threatened to leave her - and take Andrew with him - if Angel didn't get help.

Parrish rebounded in a big way by losing over 150 pounds, and then undergoing weight-loss

Angel ultimately dropped over 300 pounds.

"How do you feel after losing all that weight?"

I'd rather be a dead man than have to live like this the rest of my life."

Chuck Turner weighed in at 693 pounds when he first appeared on the show, claiming that

he started gaining weight after his first wife was murdered.

He eventually married his second wife Nissa and they adopted a son together, but his marriage

became strained when his size prevented him from helping out around the house.

Our marriage is much more caregiver-patient."

Luckily, Turner was able to have weight-loss surgery with Dr. Now, and he ended up losing

He and Nissa eventually split, but, according to In Touch, Turner's looking for love again.

On her episode of the show, Zsalynn Whitworth described flying around the world to party

I decided y'know whatever size I am, I'm just gonna be this size."

But by the time her weight topped 600 pounds, it wasn't so fun anymore.

Now a mother, she found it hard to move and spent up to 8 hours a day watching TV.

Fortunately, just a year after embarking on a journey with Dr. Now, she had lost 247 pounds.

But according to the Daily Mail, her husband Gareth - who liked larger ladies - continued

to encourage her to eat unhealthy foods, and gain weight.

Luckily, Whitworth finally prioritized her health, and got a divorce.

And I didn't deserve to feel bad about choosing my health."

Every story on the show is heartbreaking, but when Laura Perez revealed her history,

it made for particularly difficult viewing.

At five years old, an older cousin began abusing her, and food became her comfort.

"I never told my parents anything, so the abuse went on for years."

When viewers were introduced to Perez in season 3, she weighed over 590 pounds.

"She is physically in one of the worst shapes I have ever seen."

Perez shed an amazing 412 pounds, but her new figure caused problems for her marriage.

"Joey and me seem to be fighting more than ever.

I want to keep becoming more independent and get a job and have a career.

In April 2018, a man named Eric Juarez revealed via Facebook that Perez had left Joey, for

When fans first met 585-pound June McCamey, her longtime partner Sadi was buying fast

food for her - sometimes making up to three trips a day in order to avoid conflict.

McCamey was well aware that she'd become a burden on her girlfriend, admitting that she

I feel like I'm going from a bed coffin to a chair coffin."

McCamey had steadily gained weight through four pregnancies, and let herself go altogether

after the tragic death of her 17 year old son, Mack.

By the time she agreed to meet with Dr. Now, she didn't have much time.

"I am very concerned about your health right now.

If I send you home, it may be the last time I see you."

But after going under the knife, McCamey was able to start losing weight.

And by 2018, she'd dropped more than 200 pounds.

"Since I started my weightloss journey, I've lost over 200 pounds.

And I've seen a lot of positive change in my life, because of that."

While she was just 23 when she appeared on the show, Nicole Lewis already weighed in

She couldn't fit through her bathroom door, which meant her boyfriend had to wash her

But there's nothing I can do about it right now."

She has two kids with longtime partner Charlie, who also loves food, and the two would bond

"It's the one thing that brings us together is our love of…"

But according to her story, when her parents became addicted to cocaine when she was a

child, Lewis would soothe herself with food, hitting 400 pounds by age 16.

"I would go in my room and eat and lay on my bed and just cry for hours til I fell asleep."

Recent reports suggest that Lewis finally has her weight under control.
