‘My 600 lb Life’ star LB Bonner dead at 31, according to reports
In tragic news, another My 600-LB Life cast-member -- L.B. Bonner -- has passed away at the young age of 31. While the cause of death hasn't been revealed, a family member confirmed the news to Radar Online, saying: “He did pass away." On Thursday, August 2, police responded to Bonner's South Carolina home at 7:45 am, according to the Lexington Police Department.
Bonner was one of the most successful participants of the weight-loss show, after having shown tremendous results in his journey towards a healthier life. Bonner lost a leg in a car accident back in 2013, which led to his dependence on food and alcohol, leading to rampant weight gain over the years.
His weight peaked at 650 pounds, and ever since he got on the show, he dieted and exercised rigorously, even after undergoing band surgery. He maintained his sobriety throughout and had managed to drop his weight into the 200-pound zone before his sudden passing.
