1000-Lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton has made remarkable strides in her weight loss journey since first appearing on the show in 2020. At the age of 38, Tammy weighed a staggering 608 pounds during her debut, but her struggles with obesity culminated in a peak weight of 725 pounds. However, a significant health scare prompted her to take decisive action toward a healthier lifestyle.
After experiencing a life-threatening episode that resulted in a week-long medically induced coma, Tammy knew it was time to confront her food addiction and make serious changes. With support from her family and medical professionals, she opted for bariatric surgery and dedicated herself to transforming her life. The latest season of 1000-Lb Sisters showcases her inspiring progress, particularly during her recent doctor’s weigh-in, which revealed astounding results.
