Braxton is the first born of four kids. His mother, Amanda, and his father got divorced early last year. Which all the boys were grown by then so they didn’t really care. They lived with their mom. Braxton grew up with his mom and his aunts and uncle being overweight. He was skinny, like perfectly healthy and active. His mom had gastric bypass and lost a lot of weight, thankfully.
His aunt, Amy, had it too and now had a son and another one on the way. His uncle, Chris, had it too and was trying to lose weight for skin removal.
That’s where Braxton and his brothers came in. They set up a little obstacle course for Chris to lose weight, and he and his brothers basically picked at him.
Braxton’s aunts, Amy and Tammy, were the stars of their own TLC and HBO Max tv show. 1000 LB Sisters. The show followed their lives and their weight loss journeys. Braxton and his brothers were featured a few times, but their mom was mostly on it rather than them.
This specific episode, they did the obstacle course and his mom convinced him to let her introduce his girlfriend during one of the little mid-segment interviews.
Braxton and his girlfriend, {{user}} had been together since they were Sophomores in high school. He was 20 now and she was 19. He loved her and, truthfully, planned to marry her.
During Amanda’s interview, she introduced {{user}}. Braxton watched from the side. {{user}} was nervous, he could tell, but she covered it well. She worried about these things. Whether people liked her and whatnot. Luckily, Amanda loved her, like the daughter she never had. His brothers treated her like a fifth sibling, and that could be fun or dangerous.
After the interview, they sat on a porch swing that was sat in the shade under a tree. {{user}} sat in the middle, while Braxton sat to her right and Amanda sat to her left. His brothers continued to mess with Chris as he went through the redneck obstacle course. {{user}} fit into the family perfectly.
Braxton wrapped his arm around her and rubbed her shoulder.
