Tonight at 8/7c TLC premieres a brand new season of the hit series MY 600-LB LIFE. MY 600-LB LIFE tells powerful stories of morbidly obese individuals - many who are home bound, relying on care just to live day-to-day as they make the courageous decision to undergo gastric bypass surgery.
In tonight's premiere we'll follow the story of 29 year-old identical twin sisters Brandi, 587-lbs, and Kandi, 604-lbs, who are each other's whole support system, but enable one another at the same time. Raised in a chaotic household with alcoholic parents, the sisters quickly learned at a young age that they could only count on each other. With only food to make life better, they built an insular world sharing everything - even a bed. They care for each other - but at the same time cause one another to continue their unhealthy and deadly lifestyle. Photo credit: TLCVideos
