John and Lonnie Hambrick, who were on the TV show My 600-lb Life, have made amazing progress. The show is not only about losing weight, but also about overcoming personal challenges. John and Lonnie were not close when they started the show. This was unlike other siblings we’ve seen, like the Assanti brothers.
John weighed a staggering 687 pounds, while Lonnie weighed 613 pounds. They both realized that their weight was holding them back from the lives they wanted to live. But what happened after the show ended? Their journey is truly remarkable.

Since leaving the show, both brothers have achieved great things. Lonnie is now a hairstylist in Texas and is enjoying his new lease on life. His Instagram posts about going to the gym show his commitment to staying healthy. He not only impresses people with his hairstyling skills, but also inspires them with his weight loss journey. Fans can’t stop talking about how inspiring Lonnie’s story is. And to top it off, Lonnie now has a loving partner named Richard Gavadin.
John has also been successful in a different field. He has a coaching job and is involved in football, a sport he has always loved. Lonnie’s Instagram post says John has been blowing the train horn at football games for 14 years. He does it to celebrate touchdowns and big moments. Imagine doing that while weighing almost 700 pounds! Losing weight has not only changed John’s appearance, but also allowed him to take on a role he couldn’t have managed before.
From being distant siblings, John and Lonnie have become each other’s support system. Lonnie is thriving in his hairstyling career and staying fit. John is shaping young athletes and staying in shape himself.
