Former 'Extreme Weight Loss' Participant Brandi Mallory Died from Obesity Complications

Autopsy report reveals that the 40-year-old reality star's death was natural and not influenced by trace amounts of marijuana and alcohol found in her system.

Brandi Mallory, a former participant on ABC's 'Extreme Weight Loss', died last month at age 40 due to complications from obesity, according to an autopsy report.
Mallory was found unresponsive in her car in a parking lot in Stone Mountain, Georgia, on November 9.
Trace amounts of marijuana and alcohol were found in Mallory's system, but they did not contribute to her death.
Mallory lost nearly 150 pounds while on the reality show in 2014 and later became an advocate for body positivity.
Her decision to lose weight was inspired by the death of a sorority sister who died of a heart attack at age 29.
