After going to some therapy and revealing their abusive relationship, the couple began to work on their romance, allowing Rena to later be approved for surgery. From there, the couple continued to lose weight. In November, Lee shared a cartoon photo of himself and Rena sporting trim figures on Facebook.

Although he revealed that he wasn’t allowed to share recent photos, he stated that he and Rena have continued to lose weight. “We’re doing it!! 400 lbs together,” he wrote.
