“My 600-Lb. Life” returns with another story of struggle, resilience, and the daunting challenge of confronting morbid obesity. This week, we meet Deshaun, a man whose weight has not only impacted his physical health but has also confined him to the walls of his mother’s apartment. At over 700 pounds, he faces an uphill battle, and the first step might be the hardest.

Deshaun is fiercely protective of his mother, and leaving her apartment, even for life-saving surgery, feels impossible. Dr. Now and Dr. Paradise face the difficult task of coaxing Deshaun out of his bedroom, a crucial first step on a long and arduous journey. Can they convince him to take the leap of faith and travel to Houston for the weight-loss surgery he desperately needs?
