Erica Was Able to Lose 190 Pounds by the End of Her First Episode

When viewers first met Erica in 2016, the reality star was nearly 700 pounds and worried about losing her life due to complications with her weight. Erica had been steadily gaining weight since she was a child, and after years of relentless bullying from her own father and fellow classmates, she continued to turn to food as an emotional crutch. After realizing she was on her way to an early grave, the reality star decided to seek out Dr. Now in order to shed some weight and regain control of her life.

Unfortunately, Erica was already dealing with the trauma of a previous weight loss procedure, having undergone a failed stomach stapling operation years before she began working with Dr. Now. Erica dealt with several setbacks throughout her year-long journey in Houston, and although she struggled to cope with Dr. Now’s strict diet in the beginning, she worked hard to shed enough weight and was eventually approved for the gastric bypass surgery.

By the end of her first episode, Erica was down 190 pounds and she was able to undergo the operation, although Dr. Now had to stop several times during surgery to remove her old staples and reverse the damage that had been done from her initial stapling. Sadly, Erica had another serious setback in her weight loss journey during her followup episode after her boyfriend Jimmy ended their relationship over the amount of “clutter” Erica kept in her home. Although she struggled to get back on track after the breakup, Erica never gave up, and by the end of her Where Are They Now? episode, she had lost another 100 pounds.

Erica Kept the Weight Off & Appears to be Back Together With Jimmy

These days, it looks like Erica is still focusing on her health and fitness, based on numerous photos from her Facebook profile. Although she hasn’t given many updates on her weight loss journey in recent weeks, the reality star shares plenty of pictures on Facebook which prove that she’s been able to keep the weight off.

“Thank you everyone for all the birthday wishes via text message and on Facebook! It all means so much to me!” she captioned the photo above.

Her page is filled with memes, inspirational quotes, plenty of selfies and photos of her family and dog. Erica and Jimmy appear to be back together as well; her profile is flooded with pictures of the two together, including her cover photo, which features Erica leaning in for a kiss from Jimmy.
