1000-LB BEST FRIENDS follows Vannessa, Meghan, and Ashely, three best friends, who share lifelong friendships and a commitment to overcoming obesity. However, since viewers last saw them, a growing rift threatens their 30+ year relationship. Meghan and Ashely feel that Vannessa's continued celebration of her weight loss has turned into gloating, while Vannessa believes her friends are jealous of her success. What seem like irreconcilable differences are brought to light in Dr. Procter's bariatric support group. Here, some of his patients quickly find themselves caught up in the middle of their messy relationships. The new friends include Scott, who comes to Dr. Procter weighing 596 pounds and faces an almost insurmountable challenge to lose enough weight for surgery approval, and Tina, who begins to second-guess her decision when her food addiction derails her progress. Meanwhile, Vannessa continues to hold out hope that she will be approved for skin removal surgery after her transformative weight loss this past year.
Viewers can also get an inside look at the season with 1000-LB BEST FRIENDS: Inside the Episode, featuring the cast as they spill the tea at the biggest moments from each episode. The companion series will drop weekly on MAX, discovery+ and TLCGo.
