JT (Julius 'JT' Clark) has been struggling with his weight for long, but he is now ready to turn his life around. However, fans think that it might be hard for it to happen as they believe that his girlfriend, Jessica is acting as an enabler for his weight gain by giving in to his food habits. Jessica and JT met on a dating site and it was Jessica who decided to come to JT's house to meet him. 

Until he met Jessica, JT always thought that he would never have a shot at love, but he was proved wrong once the two started talking. Jessica confessed that she did not see JT's weight as his personality covered it up. She admitted that she fell for his personality and the weight did not bother her. 

Regardless, she did add that his weight had gained ever since the two started dating. Since JT would eat almost everything in the house by the time Jessica got back, she had to go shopping every day. However, almost every time Jessica brought in junk food, she would often leave the pizza for JT to have first thing in the morning. 

People thought that it was important for Jessica to be strong when it came to deciding what he must eat. The fans were quick to assume that Jessica did not love him enough because if she did, she would be more concerned about JT's weight. Many took to social media to express their disappointment over the couple. 

"She ain’t no better she FEEDS HIM she BUYS HIS FOOD and girl you ain’t that damn dainty you need an appointment with Dr. Now stop feeling that man," read one comment. Another added, "Ok so who is going to rescue Jessica he just yelled at her to not drop his milkshake and she said I’m not then said sorry!"

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