The episode of “My 600-Lb. Life” has given a glance to the
audiences regarding the unhealthily obese man. We all know that this series is
meant to search individuals that have more than 600 pounds while they are
trying to get back the control over their weight and lives. The current series
presented Gideon Yeakley, who is 33 and
lives in Mustang, Oklahoma while he weighs 625. With this weight gain, he
immediately feels pain once he wakens up.
Obviously, with this size, the routine tasks are quite difficult to perform
while breathing is also challenging. Due to such weight, the body secretes
excessive sweat and odor. Even after using deodorant in rolls of fat and
armpits, he still feels as if he is disgusting.

He starves all the time but early morning after waking up,
he eats what he desires so that his wife and kids could not catch him eating so
unhealthy things. His wife Kayleigh used to work and attend school and look
after his home. She always used to felt as if she had two children because Gideon
spent his whole day playing on the phone and eat. The biggest reason why Gideon became so healthy was that he
faced a lot of ups and downs in life. Like his parents got separated and at the
time of custody, just like his brother, he chose his father. The regret of
losing the mother increased when she died. After getting married to Kayleigh, his
father and sister also died which made him more depressed,
so he continued to eat.
Then he met Dr. Now,
who gave him motivation and assistance in reducing the weight via surgery and
loss of food that increases weight. From
625, he has now reduced its weight to 429 pounds and still decreasing its
weight. Currently, he is feeling active, energetic while he do fun things with
his children and wife.
