Alicia Kirgan has continued to shed pounds since her episode aired in 2018 on the popular TLC series "My 600-lb Life." On her Instagram, the star often takes the time to share what's happening in her life.

Back in December, Kirgan shared a post that compared how she looked before and after losing weight. A photo of Kirgan in her Halloween costume was also posted in November. The snap shows her with a big smile.

Last September, Kirgan shared photos of herself accompanied by an inspirational message. According to the reality star, "We are capable of amazing things when we believe in ourselves!"

Kirgan's "Where Are They Now" episode from April of last year was the last time TLC viewers saw her on the show. Her weight had dropped from 622 pounds to 424 pounds after her gastric surgery at that time.

Meanwhile, a report noted Kirgan's 366-pound weight loss last year. She takes the challenge seriously, and her fans praise her. Luckily, Kirgan remains active on social media so that they can watch her progress.

THEY CALLED IT QUITS

Kirgan posted an Instagram photo of herself and her partner Tim Carter toward the end of last year. A fan congratulated her and said that she looks beautiful and content with Carter still in her life.

However, the star's response wasn't good. Kirgan revealed that her relationship with Carter is over. But she did note that they remain very close, and they still support each other in everything they do.

HER CHILDHOOD TRAUMA

The same as many of the subjects discussed in the show "My 600-lb Life," Kirgan's struggles with eating disorders and weight gain originated during her childhood when she suffered from trauma.

Kirgan's parents struggled to overcome their marital difficulties, and their argument would often turn violent as soon as her father came home from the bar, leading the star to turn to food to ease her stress.

At seven years old, Kirgan weighed 160 pounds, and by the time she was ten, she weighed 200 pounds. She said that was when her life fell apart. Fortunately, she's now in good shape, restoring her confidence.

Like Kirgan, Amber Rachdi has transformed her body after appearing on "My 600-LB Life" years ago. Rachdi struggled with her weight for a long time and even relied on a wheelchair for a while.
