“I’ve been this way my whole life,” one of these cast members says in the first sneak peek at Season 13, while another telling viewers:

“I’m trapped in this body.”

It appears as though we’ll also get to see the aforementioned physician having a serious sit-down with one of his patients during an appointment.

“The changes are up to you,” Dr. Nowzaradan says in the footage.

Sadly, My 600-Lb. Life has been the subject of numerous lawsuits in recent years — and it has seen the death of more than a dozen former cast members.

In July 2023, for example, Larry Myers passed away from a heart attack… also, in early 2022, the Destinee Lashaee — the firs transgender star on the program — reportedly took her own life.
