Tammy has a reason to celebrate at the moment.
She’s had a reason to celebrate for a really long time, if we’re being honest and she isn’t being humble.
The veteran reality star, who will soon return to the air with new episodes of 1,000-Lb Sisters has dropped an incredible amount of weight over the last two years.
In a sneak peek at next week’s Season 6 premiere of this reality show, published by People Magazine, the 38-year-old is at an appointment with her bariatric surgeon Dr. Eric Smith … alongside her siblings Amy, Amanda, Misty and Chris.
The physician is so very proud of how far his patient has come, noting that she no longer needs a wheelchair to get around.
“At my rock bottom, I was weighing about 725 pounds,” Slaton says before the footage jumps to a flashback of her stepping on a scale in 2002.
“The last time I saw Dr. Smith was about nine months ago and I was around 420 pounds. He told me I had to lose 100 pounds. before my next appointment. I’m extremely nervous.”
Cut to the big moment. To Tammy stepping on this scale. And…
… it depicts 303.8 pounds! Truly amazing!
“I surpassed Dr. Smith’s goal, my goal, all the goals!” Tammy says in the clip. “I’m so ready for skin removal!”
As previously noted, Tammy has shed over 500 pounds at this point. She no longer requires a breathing tube and can sit in the passenger seat of a car by herself.
