It's been some years since Angel Parrish last appeared on the TLC series, but fans of "My 600-lb Life" continue to praise her efforts to get healthy for the sake of her family. Several Redditors brought her up when asked by u/Five_Decades to name the show's most moving success stories. One user praised Parrish for overcoming her teenage trauma, while u/CinnLove feels that Parrish, who never wavered in her wellness journey, was a breath of fresh air among Dr. Now's many difficult patients.
Meanwhile, u/bedbugsandballyhoo1 wasn't confident that Parrish would be a success story but is glad they were proven wrong. "I had no hopes for her. She seemed to be content in her depression," they began. "BUT she totally turned it around. I couldn't believe her WATN! She had knee surgery and even got a job!!! Incredible transformation."
