She said during her episode if she had to give up food, she wouldn’t be able to deal with things. This thought gave her second thoughts about surgery and the doctor canceled it to send her to a therapist. Once she addressed the causes of her over-eating, it got better for her.
How Much Weight Did Lacey Hodder Lose?
In her first episode, according to Stargasm, Lacey Hodder lost 256 pounds. She had what is considered one of Season 7’s success stories. According to Monsters and Critics, a big part of Lacey’s problem was her family. They owned several restaurants and made it easy for her to get food all the time.
Not only that, her mother ate unhealthily as well. Even after her enabling her mother got weight-loss surgery and then divorced. Coupled with the anxiety she felt from her family fighting and her bipolar disorder, she felt helpless. Lacey didn’t reveal whether she’d appear on a Where Are They Now episode.

She shares vegan recipes with followers.
Over the course of her journey, she encouraged people not to be too hard on themselves. She said, “I change with every day that passes. I’m still trying to find my balance and that’s okay.
