For every obese patient on "My 600-lb Life" there is an enabler helping them stay fat. The 2016 episode "June's story" demonstrates that classic food addiction and codependency relationship. At nearly 600 pounds, bedridden June McCamey lacks self-control over her eating and so over-controls her codependent lesbian girlfriend Sadi Gregory. June says her obesity imprisons her but Sadi is also trapped by her own codependence on June's addiction. There's hope in that fact that June is on the first rung--recognizing powerlessness. Will she work at recovery from food addiction and lose weight to get gastric bypass? Hopefully, Sadi can find recovery too.
