Brittani Fulfer From My 600-lb Life: See Her Insane Transformation!

Not everyone from My 600-lb Life gets a happily ever after.


LB Bonner died of apparent suicide. Others have compromised physical health — or struggle with their mental health.


Brittani Fulfer has a much more positive life update and is flaunting some serious weight loss. Take a look:

It was only a few years ago that Brittani Fuller struggled to even move because of her weight.


Even years later, as you’ll see in photos below, she was still overweight, and had a lot of excess skin after losing nearly 300 pounds.


Now, however, she is showing the world that she is a real weight loss success story.


“Me on my birthday a couple weeks ago,” she wrote on Facebook, sharing a stunning photo.


Brittani is almost unrecognizable.



She looks so good!


“Three years ago I weighed 600 pounds,” Brittani writes.


Her post continues: “Now I am stronger, healthier, and more alive than I thought was ever possible!”


“Am I skinny?” she asks herself. “Nope!”


“Am I okay with that?” Brittani asks, answering: “Yep!”


That is an extremely healthy mindset.

“My goal is to be healthy,” Brittani explains. “Not skinny!”


We hope that we do not have to explain that there are small people who are unhealthy and large people who are doing just fine.


Brittani advises her fans: “Remember to love yourself today!”


Brittani then wishes her followers well, writing: “Be blessed!”


As you may recall, Brittani dropped her weight by 230 pounds on her episode of My 600-lb Life.


In her follow-up episode, she lost another 103 pounds, and had 27 pounds of fat removed from her abdomen.

As we mentioned, you can see in these photos that, even after losing a lot of weight, she had a great deal of excess skin.


That is the sick joke of massive weight loss — your body might shrink, but your skin does not.


Brittani revealed on My 600-lb Life that her eating was a coping mechanism for the horrific childhood sexual abuse that she survived.


The abuse began when she was only five years old, and continued for another six years.


Like most people who use food — or drugs, or self-harm — as a coping mechanism, she was essentially self-medicating herself with food.


Different people cope in different ways. We’re glad that she was able to overcome her weight issue.

In a recent post, Brittani reflected upon her weight loss journey on My 600-lb Life.


“One of the questions I get the most is would I do this whole experience over again,” Brittani wrote.


“The answer is…in less than a heartbeat,” she revealed.


“I have become much more the me I have always wanted to be,” she said. “I WILL ALWAYS be forever grateful for this experience.”


“I believe that nothing in life worth doing is easy,” she concluded. “It is hard work every day.”


Good for her.

Angel Parrish From My 600-lb Life: See Her Insane Transformation!

Not every reality star gets a happy ending, and that is certainly true for those who appear on My 600-lb Life. Sometimes people concern fans with behavior that has nothing to do with their weight.


But sometimes, people really do dramatically transform their bodies. And that is clearly the case for 


She is absolutely unrecognizable.



At her largest, Angel Parrish weighed 570 pounds.


Her backstory was heartbreaking, and not simply because of her size.


Angel revealed that she had begun to accumulate weight after having been forced to surrender her baby for adoption at the age of 14.


It seems clear that there is more in her youth than the emotional loss of her adoption that filled her with a deep and lingering sadness.


Like so many, she used food as a coping mechanism. Over time, and combined with genetic and environmental factors, she increased in size.




Angel Parrish at Full Size


Fans last saw or heard from Angel Parrish in 2016, but she remained in the thoughts of many.


She had dropped her weight all of the way down to 230 pounds thanks to weight loss surgery.


But she has spent years in silence on social media.


Now, however, she has reappeared in a single photo.


When we say that she is unrecognizable, we are not exaggerating.


Take a look:



This is such a dramatic body transformation.


But we have to remember that, since we last saw her in 2016, Angel has had a lot of time to lose further weight and to adjust to her new figure.


Beyond that, the shock that fans may experience at seeing the photo — a sort of mild mental whiplash — comes from the total radio silence before this.


You don’t always notice weight loss when you see it happening at an imperceptible rate every day or every week.


After two years, the difference is staggering.


We do not, however, know her new weight.


But if we were to guess, it sure seems that her weight is now below 230.


Congratulations are definitely in order.




Angel Parrish and Dr. Now


There is more to dramatic weight loss like this than simply undergoing surgery with Dr. Now.


(Dr. Nowzaradan has a clinic in Houston that is featured on My 600-lb Life)


Weight loss in this manner, when the volume of the stomach is artificially reduced to limit how much food can be consumed at a time, is only part of the equation.


And it is agonizing — the human body excels at storing energy, and people who suddenly begin consuming less food on a daily basis feel as though they are starving.


Even with all of that, regulating what she eats and when she eats it, coupled with exercise, would also be vital for Angel to be a success story.


Judging from the new photo, we would guess that she also had some excess skin surgically removed. That is often necessary for people who have undergone massive weight loss.




Angel Parrish is Frustrated


Angel’s dramatic reveal may put to shame even Amber Rachdi’s insane transformation.


But it is not a competition, folks. This is about people who choose to change the shape and weight of their bodies getting the opportunity to do so with assistance and guidance and with the support of fans.


Not every story ends happily. Some have health complications from their initial weight or even their sudden weight loss.


Others have underlying problems that may have led to weight gain but continue to plague them even as they transform their bodies.


We are so glad to see that Angel is doing so well.

Mama June: See Her Amazing Transformation Through the Years!


Can you believe that it"s been six years since we were first introduced to Mama June and her wild and wacky family?


It"s true — all the way back in 2012, we saw a little girl called Honey Boo Boo on TLC"s Toddlers and Tiaras. We met her family, including her mother, June, known for couponing and for her infamous "go-go juice."


(Just in case you missed this fascinating origin story, "go-go juice" is a mixture of Red Bull and Mountain Dew that June gave her kid to keep her energy up during beauty pageants.)


They were so fascinating that they landed their own reality show, Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, shortly after their Toddlers and Tiaras episode premiered.


The show lasted for four seasons until it was abruptly canceled in 2014 after June reportedly began dating a convicted child molester.


After that, the family left the spotlight for a bit, but not for too long — June and her partner, Sugar Bear, did a stint on Marriage Boot Camp.


And then 2017 brought us Mama June: From Not to Hot, in which she lost a ridiculous amount of weight and shrunk down to a size 4.


Even though she achieved the apparent goal of getting hot in that first season, the show was renewed, and in the second season we saw numerous health issues as well as the pregnancy of her daughter Pumpkin.


That"s right, June became a grandmother one more time, and one more of her kids became a teen mom, just like their mama before them.


It"s a lot to take in, right?


So let"s just sit back, relax, and see Mama June go through all those changes right before our eyes …




1. The Introduction


The introduction

Here’s our very first glimpse of June on Toddlers and Tiaras. Seems like a lifetime, huh?



2. Here Comes Honey Boo Boo!


Here comes honey boo boo

Here’s June in the first episode of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo — not much has changed, since the show premiered just months after the Toddlers and Tiaras episode, but she definitely feels more comfortable with the cameras.



3. Oh, June …


June shannon pic

… She really is very comfortable, isn’t she?



4. Blonde Mama June!


This is june shannon

After the first season of the show, June went blonde, which is now her signature hair color. The transformation is happening!



5. Them Curls!

And sometimes, when she’s feeling saucy, she does some tight, heavily styled curls!

Bikini Model Shows STUNNING Before-and-After Body Transformation!

This Australian model’s before-and-after bikini photos are stunning and reveal a dramatic transformation.


Not the before-and-after transformation that you expect, maybe.


But it’s exactly the sort of image that people need to see right now.



La’Tecia Thomas is a bikini model.


She’s done modeling in the past and she’s still doing it now.


Then and now, she’s gorgeous. Honestly her features remind us of Megan Fox, and we do not say that lightly.


All that’s really changed is, well, the size of the bikinis.


There are a lot of body transformation photos in this world. In most cases, the “before” pic dwarfs the “after” photo, as someone maps their personal weight loss journey.


La’Tecia’s story is a little different.


Take a look at the comparison photo that she posted to Instagram that’s earning her a lot of love.



Let’s be clear — she’s beautiful in both photos.


But in the picture on the left, where she has rock-hard abs and a slender frame, she was miserable.


In the snap on the right, she’s glowing with competence and, again, looks like a thicc Megan Fox.


In her caption, La’Tecia tells the story behind the images.


“I was going through my phone and I found this old photo of me back when I was training to compete in a bikini competition. So many people will look at this photo and make physical comparisons and say they would prefer me ‘before’. I prefer me at any weight as long as I’m happy.:


First of all, as you can imagine, she’s gotten a lot of comments saying that they prefer her “after” photo. 


And not just because the picture quality on the right is so much higher.


“It’s okay to love yourself no matter what your size is.”


That’s absolutely true! No matter what that one fat-shaming British mom who worried her daughter would “catch” being fat thinks.


They say that increased confidence and self-love is the key to weight loss, but it’s also just a key to happiness.


And then she talks about how different things were for her, before.



“I remember how unhappy I was In the picture to the left, I would loathe certain parts of my body- particularly my bum/ thighs because that was and is the hardest part of my body to lose.”


She was a size 8 at the time, but when you’re obsessed with weight-loss and sculpting your body, sometimes it’s hard to appreciate the results.


It’s sad but true.


“I had so many insecurities, I compared myself to other women and I lacked confidence.”


Now, she radiates confidence. You can see that in every single picture.


“Since changing my outlook on life and learning to embrace who I am, I know that hypothetically if I were to go back to what I used to be I would be so much happier and content than what I was because I’ve learned to love me.”


Beautiful!


“Your mental health is just as important as your physical. Also I’m not saying it’s okay to be inactive and make unhealthy choices, I think it’s about finding balance, listen to your body, you know what’s best for it.”


Balance is the key to life.



Her post has over 60,000 likes, and that number is growing.


Different people’s bodies are wired to be different weights. Some find it easier than others to gain or lose fat or muscle mass.


That’s just how things are.


She’s found her balance and she’s clearly living her best life as a result.


And … did we mention that she’s gorgeous? Because she’s gorgeous.

Amber Rachdi from My 600 Pound Life: See Her Insane Transformation!

You may not remember Amber Rachdi’s name, but if you watch My 600 Pound Life, you’ll definitely remember her story.


And probably the first thing you’ll remember is how utterly heartbreaking it was.



At just 23 years old, Amber weighed in at 657 pounds — a weight she said made her feel like “a nasty, yucky monster.”


In her episode, she said that she had an eating disorder that made it extremely difficult for her to stop eating, and serious anxiety was the cause of that disorder.


Even though she was disgusted by the amount of food she ate, she didn’t feel like she was able to stop.


When she five years old, she weighed 160 pounds, and the weight just piled on from there.


For some reason, the weight seemed to pile on largely on her legs.



One of her biggest issues was that her legs were too heavy to walk for more than a few minutes at a time, and so the only time she ever left the house was to shop for groceries.


But even though she didn’t have the best support system, Amber managed to lose 20 pounds on her own, her requirement for getting her weight loss surgery.


She got the surgery, and … well, you’ll have to see her latest results for yourselves.


Otherwise there’s a solid chance you won’t believe how far she’s come.


Amber looks absolutely incredible, right?!



She looks happy and healthy, and like she’s in a completely different place than she was during her My 600 Pound Life episode.


A different, much happier place.


She’s lost over 400 pounds since then, and she’s obviously found an amazing sense of style.


These days, she works with a therapist to help her deal with the anxiety issues that caused her to gain so much weight in the first place.


She’s also active on social media, and she seems ready and willing to help out other people with weight loss or confidence or basically any old thing.



One thing she says is that she and the other My 600 Pound Life stars aren’t able to share exactly how much weight they’ve lost, or specific diets or exercises they’ve used to lose the weight.


She wouldn’t want to do that anyway, she says — she’s not a professional, and what’s worked for her may not work for others.


But it’s clear that whatever she did, it really, really worked for her.


Seriously, how gorgeous is she?

Kendall Jenner: See Her (Possibly Surgical) Transformation!


The Kendall Jenner of yesterday does not look a whole lot like the Kendall Jenner of today.


And we mean that almost literally.


Has she had plastic surgery? Botox? Fillers? Lip injections?


Did the Kardashians finally share some of their pouty-lipped, big-bootied magic with her?


It"s hard to say, but looking through pictures of Kendall through the years, the change is undeniable …




1. Baby Kendall


Baby kendall

Here’s little five-year-old Kendall with her parents and little sis Kylie. We’re not saying she had any plastic surgery at this point, we’re just pointing out that this is what the girl is working with. Also, how adorable!



2. 2008 Kendall


2008 kendall

Here’s Kendall with Kylie in 2008, when she was 12. This is just at the beginning of her fame — classic little Kendall, right?



3. 2009 Kendall


2009 kendall

Oh, the wonders of puberty! From 2008 to 2009, Kendall obviously had a huge growth spurt — and she’s starting to look more like the long-legged model she is these days.



4. 2010 Kendall


2010 kendall

14 years old, can you believe it! Note the shape of her face, all those little features … because they’re about to change.



5. 2011 Kendall

So tall! So thin! So lovely!

Is that a feather in her hair? It’s 2012, what do you think?

Kylie Jenner Turns 19, Undergoes Radical Transformation

Kylie Jenner is leaving the age of 18 behind.


And apparently embracing the next year of her life in fiery fashion.



On the eve of her birthday late Tuesday night, Kylie took to Instagram and surprised fans with a selfie.


On its own, of course, this is pretty much the least surprising thing one will ever see on the Internet.


At this point, as you can see below, Kylie Jenner is more known for snapping selfies than half-sister Kim Kardashian is for banging Ray J on video.



So, what made this Kylie Jenner selfie different?


The hair color and hairstyle being rocked by the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star in it.


Ready to be blown away? And perhaps a little bit frightened? Don’t say we didn’t warn you…



Yikes? Or: Well done, Kylie?


Merely captioning her photo with a red heart, Jenner left fans to wonder where this dye job was real or the work of a wig.


Back in August 2015, remember, Kylie proved she can pull off being a red head when she shared a Photoshopped image of herself on social media.


This may not be a permanent change, but Jenner clearly thinks enough of it to show it off to her millions and millions of followers.


We tend to think this is just a wig, however, due to some further investigating of the World Wide Web.


Jenner’s usual “wig guy,” Tokyo Stylez, shared the same flame-colored snapshpt on Instagram Tuesday writing as a caption to the image:


“#touchedbytokyo.”


We’re not sure what that means. But it does imply that Kylie is just wigging out in this case.


Still, it’s very much like one of the Kardashians or Jenners to experiment with a different look, even if it’s not completely real.


Consider Konsider all the wide contrast kontrast of Kardashian hairstyles and colors kolors over the years:



Kylie, the youngest sibling in this famous family, has tried nearly every hair color out there in recent memory, from green to pink to blue.


Lots and lots of blue.


The Lip Kit creator previously went pastel blue in July…. aqua for Coachella in April… and went full blue for sister Kim Kardashian’s wedding to Kanye West.


Remember this blue-haired selfie?



Or the other times Kylie’s hair matched the sky?



In a recent post on her official app, Kylie said that changing up her hair color has kind of an “addiction” since she first dyed her locks at age 16.


“It makes me feel like a new person. I love feeling different and I love leaving the house knowing that nobody has ever seen me this way,” she wrote.


“It’s hard for me to go back to different styles I’ve worn before; I don’t always like my normal short, black hair.


“That look makes me feel like I’m going back in time. It’s like I’m going back to that moment a year ago and I just don’t want be in that space.”


Hey, whatever makes you happy, Kylie.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Khloe Kardashian To Host Body Transformation Series in 2016

Two shows in one year?



Khloe Kardashian and E! just announced a new reality series to be hosted by Koko herself, Revenge Body With Khloe Kardashian.


According to Gossip Cop, each episode will feature Khloe helping two people transform their lives with the assistance of Hollywood trainers and stylists.  


The participants will have endured a hardship that motivates them to make a change, be it a break-up, job loss, or an event that makes them feel as though they’re just not good enough.


“Looking great is always the best revenge,” Khloe said in a press release.  


“It’s so exciting to be able to mentor these people through their full-body makeovers and I can’t wait to see the incredible results at their final reveals!”


Khloe published a self-help book this past fall, titled Strong Looks Better Naked, which Khloe penned after adopting a healthier lifestyle.


“I hope to be an inspiration to readers everywhere on how they can create their own true strength and beauty inside and out,” Khloe wrote to her fans.


“I am so excited about sharing my philosophy on how I live and the power of strength.”


The announcement comes on the heels of promotion for Khloe’s other show, Kocktails with Khloe.  


That series, premiering on FYI in January, is a bit different from Revenge Body in that it focuses more on conversations with friends and celebrity guests on a set that features a working kitchen, dining and living areas.

Jenelle Evans: See Her Weight Loss Transformation!

You have to hand it to anyone who aims to get healthy, because the weight loss journey is a bitch.



Teen Mom‘s Jenelle Evans, 23, showed off an impressed before-and-after Instagram, showing the positive change in her body since January 2015.


“Left Is January 2015, Right November 2015,” Evans, who is enjoying a holiday in St. Thomas with her boyfriend of two months, David Eason, wrote.


It was only 11 months ago that Evans was proposed to by ex-fiane Nathan Griffith in this same exact spot


For someone who’s used to negative press, this side-by-side is refreshing.


I mean, she’s been arrested nine times, has two children by two different men, and allegedly abused a dog, but this update totally makes up for it.*



*No, it most certainly does not.
