What Happened To Wess Schulze After Season 11?

For Wess Schulze, his dramatic weight loss has been vital for not only his physical health, but also his mental health. In each of his social media posts, he's oozing confidence — something he didn't have when he was on the verge of being bedridden at the start of his "My 600-Lb Life" episode. Schulze's mental transformation has been just as important as his physical one.

On the show, once he receives his surgery, Schulze meets with psychotherapist Dr. Matthew Paradise, who helps him recognize the pain he's been holding in since childhood. Schulze even has the bravery to finally address the situation with his father after both tried to brush it under the rug for years. They agreed that what happened to Schulze was no one's fault except the perpetrator's.

He said in a post, "A year-and-a-half ago, I started a journey not measured in pounds lost, but in self love gained. So far, I have shed 306 pounds, transforming not only my body, but my entire perspective. I learned to embrace every scar and stretch mark as a testament to my resilience. In the mirror, I no longer see flaws, but beautiful reminders of the battles I fought and conquered."

It seems that Schulze's positive updates won't be stopping anytime soon. Hopefully, one announcing his dream — to be cast in a play — is on the horizon.
