Travis has been struggling with his weight for a long time but he finally wants to take control of his life. He first started gaining weight when he was 10, due to the family struggles that he faced but since then, things have taken a turn for the worse. Travis is now married to Yasmin and while she has stood by him through thick and thin, he feels their marriage is suffering because of his weight.

Yasmin has to help Travis take a shower as he cannot reach some places alone. He knew if things went on in the same way, soon their marriage will end. However, he has now decided that he needs to turn his life around and decides to meet Dr. Younan Nowzaradan, with the hopes that he can turn to healthy eating.

Dr. Nowzaradan suggests that the only way Travis could get approved for surgery is by losing some weight and sticking to the diet that has been provided to them. Travis feels motivated to lose some weight as he says that his one goal after losing weight is to make sure that he gives Yasmin a real wedding.

This leads the two of them to turn their habits towards healthy eating as Yasmin makes sure that she gets things that are good for Travis while motivating him to exercise. After three months, Travis decides to meet Dr. Nowzaradan. When weighed, Travis weighed 593lbs and did not meet his weight goal.

He confessed to Dr. Nowzaradan that he had been slipping on his diet and now and then they would often eat from outside. However, Dr. Nowzaradan warns him and states the importance of losing weight for him. Travis takes on the decision of working on his weight strictly as Dr. Nowzaradan asks him to come in again after two months. This time, he is not determined to fail and he is ready to lose weight to give Yasmin the life she deserves.

Travis works to make sure he is staying on the right track and finally arrives to meet Dr. Nowzaradan. This time, Travis weighed 516lbs and had lost 77lbs. Looking at how much effort Travis put into losing weight, Dr. Nowzaradan approved him for the surgery.

Dr. Nowzaradan scheduled him for weight loss surgery after one month stating that he would first look at how much weight he has lost in case he has gained weight, he would not be able to undergo the surgery. Luckily, Dr. Nowzaradan was happy with the progress he had made and even after a month, he decided to go on with the surgery.

The surgery was successful but Travis had to stay on a liquid date for a month while working on to lose weight. Once Travis recovered from the surgery, he started going to the gym at least three times a week. However, he felt concerned about being around food that might make him lose his motivation.

He decides to take therapy as he does not want to go back to being the person he was but before that, he decides to meet Dr. Nowzaradan. Dr. Nowzaradan tells Travis that it was important for him to meet a therapist if he wanted to continue working to stay on track.

Travis decides to listen to Dr. Nowzaradan and goes for the therapy. He finds it surprising but the therapy helps him a lot and he understands the importance of letting go even though there were a few things he did not agree with.

After the session, Travis decides to open up to his brother and tell him about the problems he had. Luckily, the two were able to sort things out and Travis feels a bit better. However, he decides to wait for some time before talking to his father. After spending some time away, Travis returns to meet Dr. Nowzaradan and this time, he weighed 396lbs. He was happy with the weight loss and ready to move on in life.

'My 600-Lb Life' airs on Wednesdays at 8 pm ET on TLC.
