My 600-lb Life season 12 wrapped up this April. Thankfully for fans of the show, the transformational journeys don’t stop there. A brand new batch of Where Are They Now? episodes arrived on May 1. Fans get to see where some of the show’s stars are today, including season 10’s Julian Valentine.
My 600-lb Life: Where Are They Now? follows up with some of Dr Nowzaradan’s patients. Some appeared on the TLC show many seasons back, while others began their weight-loss journeys just a couple of years ago. In the all-new episodes, viewers get to see how they are progressing.
Meet My 600-lb Life’s Julian Valentine
When Julian’s weight loss journey began he weighed over 800lb.
After seeking Dr Now’s help, he cracked down on his starting weight of 830lb and shed 200lb.
Helping him along in the journey was his then-wife, Irma. The two lived together in Texas and had hopes of becoming parents one day.
Julian had a dream
In many cases, Dr Now ends up disappointed with his patients. The surgeon maps out weight loss plans for people all the time. But, their success is almost entirely in their hands.
Julian’s weight loss journey was truly remarkable as he continued to lose hundreds of pounds.
When it came to staying on track with his weight loss goals, Julian had something, or someone, in mind that pushed him to the finish line.
He wanted to adopt his nine-month-old nephew. Julian explained: “There are requirements we need to meet to qualify for the adoption board.”
The reality TV star adds how he wanted to get “healthy” for his family and be a “provider.”
Where is he now?
When TLC viewers last saw Julian, Dr Now said he had to lose an additional 300lb in order to be approved for skin removal surgery.
Judging by Julian’s social media, he’s doing great these days and appears to have lost even more weight.
He was clearly successful in his adoption journey as he just celebrated his son’s third birthday this May.
Julian and Irma are no longer together as he shares on Facebook that he’s in a relationship with someone new.
