Chronicling lifelong hardships with addiction and the inevitable impact their condition has on their closest relationships, each episode gives an inside look at the extreme emotional and physical journeys each person must undergo to qualify for life-saving surgery with Dr. Nowzaradan.
The new season starts with the story of Krystal, who must overcome a difficult past to embrace a brighter future. Krystal began overeating as a shield after suffering years of abuse.
What was once a means of protection, her pathological eating now threatens to destroy her life if she doesn’t get help.
