Angie J. is definitely one of the more memorable guests on My 600-Lb. Life. Although she was eager to get help and regain control of her weight, things didn’t quite work out for her. During her episode, she dealt with addiction and a breakup, which definitely didn’t make it any easier for her to complete the program.

Like many other patients in the program, Angie J. admitted to using marijuana. However, Dr. Now discovered narcotics in her system and wouldn’t allow her to proceed in the program until she went to rehab. Sadly, things just continued to go downhill from there. At different points, the My 600-Lb. Life star even ended up homeless and wandering the streets.

Now, fans are curious — where is the TLC personality in 2022?
