Tammy Slaton’s weight loss journey is at its peak. After many years of her followers seeing her progress, the TV star is finally at a point where she can stand on her own—a considerable improvement from when she depended on a wheelchair.
A few hours ago, Tammy Slater shared photos of herself on Instagram in which she looked somewhat unrecognizable. She appears to have lost a significant amount of weight, which could be a positive in this case.
In the selfie photos she shared, we see her wearing what appears to be a floral top as she spends time soaking up some fresh air on the side of a road.
Tammy’s supporters and fans flooded the comments beneath her recent post with words of encouragement and support—applause for her upturn in health. “We are rooting for you, Tammy! You deserve a good life. Never let anyone tell you otherwise,” someone said.
Other fans felt proud to see the Youtuber without a tracheostomy, while others expressed joy and pride to witness the positive progression in Tammy’s health.
One of the standout comments came from a supporter who said, “I hope you read every single one of these amazing comments and feel all the love.” They continued, “You’ve done amazing and look amazing.”
The Sun shared a progress report when they announced that Tammy had officially lost 300 pounds. The news was initially released on the Southern Indiana Combat Production’s Facebook page last week. They shared photos of Tammy with a proud smile, holding a champion’s belt beside her sister Amy Slater.
The part that stood out to most people who viewed the images reposted on Reddit was that Tammy was able to stand upright without any assistance—something she has not been able to do, as she used a wheelchair for many years.
Daily Mail says the 36-year-old “1000-lb Sisters” star weighed roughly 700 pounds last year. After putting in the hours at a food rehabilitation center, Tammy managed to decrease her weight to 550 pounds—smashing the target she had set out for herself.
Before Tammy’s 300-pound weight loss announcement, she had to successfully decrease her weight to a certain number to undergo weight loss surgery. As revealed by Daily Mail, the target was 550 pounds, which she attained.
After reaching the goal, fans saw Tammy leaving the rehabilitation facility as she prepared for her bariatric surgery. Tammy was sent off with the heartwarming cheers and support of her family. She said, “I really do appreciate everybody coming. I needed them. I needed to know that they love me no matter what.” As she became emotional, Tammy continued to say that knowing her family was there for her helped her push through to get where she was.
