My 600-lb Life: Where Is Maja, The Star Of ‘My 600-lb Life,’ Now?

Maja Radanovic stars in tonight’s My 600-lb Life rerun. Originally from Portland, Oregon, she moved to Houston last year to seek Dr. Younan Nowzaradan’s help in losing weight and improving her health.

Starting at 689 pounds, Maja, daughter of Serbian immigrants, battled food addiction. Using food as emotional support, she sought Dr. Now’s guidance to shed over 100 pounds by the episode’s end.

Curious about Maja’s current status? With TLC airing her episode again tonight, fans may wonder if she has maintained her weight loss journey since her last appearance on the show.

My 600-lb Life: Maja’s Story

When we met Maja Radanovic, she and her boyfriend Christian struggled at the airport, moving to Houston, where Dr. Now lives. Maja, frustrated, complained about the unexpected long walk at the airport.

This is much more walking than I expected to have to do, and how far away everything is is really frustrating because I called both airports before I left and asked them how far and how far she was walking,” she expressed in the clip. Angered by the situation, she added, “My legs hurt. The lady lied about the distance. I’d have made other plans if I knew.”

Maja, weighing 689 pounds then, also battled lymphedema. Her daily life was a challenge due to extreme obesity. She depended on her boyfriend for basic tasks like wearing socks.

Food was Maja’s solace since childhood, coping with abandonment issues. Her parents split when she was 2. Raised by relatives due to her mother’s busy schedule, she felt unloved, leading to her food addiction.

Growing up, her mother’s criticism and her absent father worsened her struggles. By high school graduation, she weighed over 400 pounds. At 24, her weight exceeded 500 pounds.
