It wasn’t that long ago that fans were concerned for Tammy Slaton, the “1000-Lb Sisters” star whose weight was so extreme that she was in danger of dying. At her highest, she weighed 717 pounds and couldn’t walk at all, instead remaining largely bed-bound and forced to use a wheelchair. However, the 36-year-old has since lost a huge amount of weight and is now 534 pounds. As a result, she’s even been able to begin walking on her own!
“When I got on the scale and I saw the scale was at 534.7, I kinda stopped breathing for a second,” she said in the new season of “1000-lb Sisters.” She went on to say that she’s “14 pounds under my goal weight” but still applauded herself for her hard work.
“I’m feeling thrilled, proud, excited… just all the emotions. I proved everybody wrong. Everybody that doubted me, I finally got mine! My told-you-so moment!” She said.
Fans have praised Tammy Slaton for her incredible weight loss achievement, leaving comments of encouragement and congratulations on her Instagram page.
“So wonderful. U inspire me so much. I am trying again. I got sleeved in 2016 and have lost only 55 pounds of my 185 pound goal. I have 130 pounds to my goal. I am so happy for you,” one fan wrote. Another added: “Boy, I doubted you. I’m so happy to see that you proved me and so many wrong! Keep up the great work.”
A third supporter lavished compliments on Slaton, writing: “You remind me of a butterfly spreading her wings for the first time and learning she can fly! Remember you are worthy!”
We’re sure she’ll continue working hard to get fit and healthy, and she’s doing an amazing job! From the looks of her social media posts, she seems so much happier and it’s amazing to see. Weight loss is only part of the journey for Tammy Slaton, but she’s bossing it!
