'My 600-Lb. Life': Alicia

A bubbly personality hides the torment and terror that 32 year-old Alicia feels on the inside. She spent her childhood ignored by her father and shamed by her mother for her weight. This spurred a lifetime of over-eating, and as an adult, Alicia is on the brink of immobility and possibly death at 622lbs. Alicia's long-time boyfriend Tim has never judged her for her size, but he refuses to stay and watch Alicia eat her way into an early grave. Alicia is scared that she will lose her boyfriend and not live to see her nieces grow up. Alicia must now change her ways in order to save her relationship and her life.
