Gina arrived to Dr. Now's office in Season 8 and relocated from New Jersey with her wife, Beth, for Dr. Now's weight-loss program. Though she struggled to drop the weight Dr. Now requires of all his patients in order to be approved for surgery, off the show, Gina shared in March of 2021 that she had dropped 300 lbs.

"I did this for me and only me, and I did this on my own," she said on her YouTube channel. Sadly, in April 2021, she updated fans from inside her hospital room, where she mentioned she had gone after struggling with mobility issues, a possible infection, and an eating disorder.

Gina died on Aug. 1, 2021, at 30 years old. No official cause of death was listed in her obituary, which states that Gina was "surrounded by her loving family" when she passed away.

Previously, Gina shared on her YouTube channel that she suffered from cellulitis and had been in the hospital. The CDC defines cellulitis as a "common bacterial skin infection that causes redness, swelling, and pain in the infected area of the skin. If untreated, it can spread and cause serious health problems."

She is survived by her wife, sister, and mother, who we are keeping in our thoughts.
