Similar to his brother, Justin Assanti has also fared relatively well following his appearance "My 600-Lb Life." Based on the 2020 follow-up episode of "My 600-Lb Life: Where Are They Now?," it seems that his store, Hobby Haven, is enjoying continued success and has been a great way for him to work through his social anxiety. After getting a bariatric procedure, Justin has also reportedly dropped 200 pounds.
Similar to his brother, Justin has also spoken out about on the show's portrayal of the brotherly duo. In a Reddit Q&A thread, he admitted that their episode was heavily edited, but he nevertheless affirmed that the show offered an accurate depiction of what life with Steven was like. "Steven is really like that even off camera," he wrote.
While Justin's journey through life continues, fans shouldn't expect to see him involved with "My 600-Lb Life" in any capacity moving forward due to the vitriolic attention he garnered from his appearance. "I went from no one knowing I existed to being harassed all day on social media, my business and phone calls," he explained. "I wouldn't do it again."
