Chris has accomplished several milestones, including completing a 5k marathon and making his first appearance at a convention.

Chris has been absent from social media for the past few months due to a significant tragedy in his family - the death of his mother's pet dog, which affected not only him but also his siblings.

Recently, Chris returned to social media with a close-up selfie, wearing a purple t-shirt and a yellow cap. He appeared more slender than before and exuded confidence. With a groomed beard that highlighted his slim face and chiseled jawline, Chris looked both fit and self-assured. Although the 1000-Lb Sisters cast member didn't directly address his recent weight loss progress, he captioned the Instagram Story with, "let get it today," indicating his enthusiasm for the future.

What Chris Combs' Selfie Means For His Social Media Presence

Chris Combs Rarely Posts On Social Media

As mentioned, 1000-Lb Sisters season 6 chronicled Chris' skin removal surgery, which was a huge moment for the reality show. It seems like most of what fans see of Chris takes place on 1000-Lb Sisters itself instead of social media. Whereas Tammy, Amy and Amanda regularly or semi-regularly post on Instagram and TikTok, Chris doesn't prioritize social media at all. Sometimes, several weeks can go by between posts or Instagram Stories.

His new selfie was a very rare update and gave fans a little bit of insight into how he's been doing lately. His caption of "let's get it today" seemed to be his way of pumping himself up at the start of his shift. It could also have been a way to send a positive message to fans that they, too, can have a successful day, regardless of whatever circumstances they're going through. Maybe he realized he hadn't shared any updates in a while and decided to do a quick selfie at work.

Chris' most recent Instagram post before now was about his mom losing her beloved pet, which was in the first half of February. Before that, the 1000-Lb Sisters star only posted one time in January and once in December. His Instagram Stories seem to be almost as rare. Sometimes, he'll post a link to his Cameo page, where he takes video requests from fans, which is a great way for 1000-Lb Sisters viewers to get a personalized message from him.

While his online presence is so different from his siblings, that's not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, Chris not being obsessed with sharing his every move on social media is smart and very healthy for his mental health. He is a reality TV star, so there is an expectation of some sort of social media presence, but Chris still doesn't feel the need to share every part of his life outside of what the cameras capture on 1000-Lb Sisters.
