The upcoming episode of 'My 600-lb Life' will highlight the weight loss journey of Cindy. She appears to be in her late-thirties and weighs over 600 pounds. The summary for the episode reads, "Cindy is resistant to change and has spent years creating a world that makes her feel safe. When her friend notices Cindy's health declining rapidly due to her size, she pushes Cindy to move to Houston and see Dr. Now." She does not welcome change and is happy in her home where she remains under observation. She is certainly not in the best of health and wears a nasal cannula to help her breathe properly and her bedroom resembles more of a hospital ward than a personal sanctuary. 

Looking at her deteriorating condition, her friend Sandy offers to accompany her to Houston so that Cindy can meet with Dr Now, enroll in his weight loss program and get her life on track. Sandy helps Cindy carry out basic tasks like taking a shower. In the episode trailer released by the network, both of them are in the midst of a low-key argument over the former's health.

Judging by the trailer, it appears that Sandy has a house in Houston and has made all the arrangements so that Cindy could be comfortable. Since Dr Now's program could take months many of his patients move to Houston, and Sandy wanted the same for her friend.

Sandy didn't want Cindy to sit in her chicken coup-sized bedroom and die. She even had a medical assistant and an ambulance waiting outside so that the movement could be swift and smooth.

However, Cindy was too attached and too comfortable where she was and declined to go causing Sandy to break down in tears. "I don't feel like anyone's listening to me. I am not ready for this. I am not ready to move to Houston but Sandy doesn't care. None of them do and no one's listening to me," Cindy is heard saying in the trailer feeling that Sandy was trying to be rude and not being considerate about what she wants. 

'My 600-lb Life' airs on Wednesday at 8 pm ET on TLC.
