My 600-lb Life: Lacey Buckingham Talks about Relationship with Food

On My 600-lb Life, Lacey Buckingham said food brought her pleasure. But, she said the relationship she had with food has been the way it is since she was a young child. Then, she said she grew up in a family that caused her to be emotionally and physically exhausted. She said she “should’ve been adopted” when she talked about her siblings.

However, there were a lot of traumatic memories that happened when Lacey was a child that caused her to turn to food. The My 600-lb Life personality claimed her father had anger issues, so she didn’t have much of a relationship with him. Yet, she claimed to have an even worse relationship with her mother.

As Lacey grew older, she described how she began to turn to food more frequently. And she described how she began to gain weight.
