What Happened To My 600-Lb Life's Kenae After The Show
How has Kenae Dolphus from My 600-Lb Life been doing since her episode aired? TLC reality show My 600-Lb Life is the brainchild of TV producer Jonathan Nowzaradan and has aired ten seasons since its debut in 2012. Each episode chronicles a year in the life of an obese person as they take steps to bring their weight down to a healthy level with the help of Nowzaradan’s famous father Dr. Younan Nowzaradan – a surgeon and weight loss expert who is affectionately known by his patients as “Dr. Now.”
Dr. Now’s methods usually involve putting his patients on a strict diet and exercise program that’s geared towards helping them lose enough weight to be approved for weight-loss surgery like a gastric bypass or sleeve gastrectomy. Over the course of the reality show, Dr. Now has helped well over 100 overweight people improve their health and well-being and My 600-Lb Life season 9 introduced a patient named Kenae Dolphus, whose episode aired in February 2021.
