She’s undergone a true metamorphosis: Tammy Slaton (38), known from the reality TV series “1000-lb Sisters”, has achieved an incredible transformation. In the latest episode of the TLC show, which aired on Tuesday, she revealed that she has now lost 500 pounds – that’s over 200 kilograms. Her current weight is 238 pounds (approximately 108 kilograms). Once weighing over 700 pounds (about 317 kilograms), Tammy is still amazed by her own progress: “Everyone tells me I look smaller than Amy. It’s kind of hard to believe. I can hardly believe I’ve done it,” she said on camera. Her impressive transformation has earned her not only respect but also a flood of positive feedback from her family, fans, and experts.
However, Tammy’s journey was anything but easy. Back in 2022, she entered a rehab facility where she initially lost 115 pounds. She later underwent a gastric bypass surgery that dramatically changed her life. During that time, Tammy also met her future husband, Caleb Willingham. “We support each other with all our hearts,” Tammy told Us Weekly in February 2023. Sadly, Caleb passed away last year at the age of only 40. After this painful loss, Tammy decided to reorganize her life — including her love life. In the current season of the show, she appears open and confident: she is in a relationship again — this time, however, with a woman, something she had hinted at in a previous trailer for Season 7.
Tammy has spoken publicly in the past about her pansexual orientation, but after her husband’s death, she realized she feels a stronger attraction to women. “Love is love,” she explained in an emotional TikTok video earlier this year, emphasizing that she is an advocate for diversity and acceptance. Fans are celebrating her not only for her spectacular weight loss, but also for her courage in openly sharing her feelings and relationships. Privately, the reality star remains optimistic: “Everyone deserves love, no matter who or what they are,” she affirmed in her video, embracing this new chapter of her life — one in which her well-being and happiness come first.
