My 600-Lb Life brother-sister duo Carlton and Shantel Oglesby made great progress on their episode. Have they been able to keep the weight off?

My 600-lb Life season 8 brother and sister duo Carlton and Shantel Oglesby had a lot of success on their weight loss journey, and it is time to find out if they were able to continue with the program. Carlton and Shantel had been overweight since childhood and reached a breaking point when they became nearly immobile. They moved from Columbus, Ohio, to Houston, Texas, to seek help from the renowned bariatric surgeon, Younan Nowzaradan, known as Dr. Now. The My 600-lb Life stars were not alone on their journey with Dr. Now, as Shantel was joined by her husband and three children, while Carlton's girlfriend Monica accompanied him.

Carlton and Monica had met online and talked for a year before meeting in person. They met just one day before they began the trip to Houston. When Carlton and Shantel's My 600-lb Life episode aired, he weighed 786 pounds, and she weighed nearly 640 pounds. My 600-lb Life's Dr. Now put them on a strict diet and exercise regimen to help them to qualify for weight loss surgery. At the end of the episode, after six months, Carlton had lost 243 pounds, and Shantel was down 215 pounds. However, have they been able to keep up with their weight loss?
