On My 600-Lb Life, Justin and Steven Assanti (aka the villainous Assanti Brothers) were featured with Dr.Younan Nowzaradan, and it's time to share facts about the famous siblings' lives after the show. It's been six years since their television appearance.
The siblings were a part of the show in season 5, episode 13. They have since moved on with their lives, and curiosity surrounds how they've fared. Dr. Now (as he is widely known) is a Texas-based bariatric surgeon. TLC follows his morbidly obese patients, who weigh over 600 pounds, as they try to slim down with the famous physician's help.
Steven and Justin's Post-My 600-Lb Life Journey
No love was lost between the brothers, and that doesn't seem to have changed. According to Cheatsheet, the brothers are currently not on speaking terms. Steven is the heavier of the two, and once weighed over 800 pounds. Justin's highest weight was just over 600 pounds.
In a Where Are They Now? special,Steven reported that he'd lost over 300 pounds, and weighed roughly 500 pounds. However, Dr. Now thinks that he weighed more than that. Justin has said that he lost 200 pounds after the bariatric procedure.
My 600-Lb Life's Justin Finds Love
Steven got married to Stephanie Sanger after My 600-lb Life. He claimed that the fame he garnered from the series affected his marriage. He also said that the editing on the show only featured his bad points. His wife backed up this statement when she said he was nice, rather than problematic (as he seemed to be onscreen).
While Justin admitted that their episode was a bit exaggerated, it accurately portrayed how difficult Steven can be. He still runs his shop, Hobby Haven, which helps him to deal with his social anxiety.
