1000-Lb Sisters season 6 star Tammy Slaton has lost so much weight, and her new lifestyle proves that she’ll continue her incredible weight-loss journey. Over the years, Tammy has completely transformed her life and her body, and she continues to hit new milestones. It’s impressive that Tammy’s come so far since the show premiered in 2020. Back then, she weighed over 600 pounds. Despite her doctors’ warnings and her diminished quality of life, she continued to gain weight, getting up to 720 pounds at her heaviest.
After a health crisis landed Tammy in the hospital, she was scared straight. Then, the 1000-lb Sisters season 6 star came out of her week-long medically-induced coma, and realized that her life was on the line. After buckling down and getting weight-loss surgery, Tammy dropped an incredible amount of weight – this has changed her life completely. Though Tammy had a hard time getting started, she seemed to be totally committed to her weight-loss journey, and intends to keep achieving major milestones.
Tammy Exceeded Her Goal Weight
She Lost A Shocking Amount Of Weight
Since Tammy had gastric bypass surgery in 2022, 1000-lb Sisters fans have been obsessed with knowing exactly how much weight Tammy lost. Up until recently, Tammy’s official number of pounds lost was 440, but Instagram influencer Katlyn Foster posted a big update in August. In the clip, several women walk onscreen with the number of pounds they’ve lost appearing on the screen. When it was Tammy’s turn to step into the frame, the screen showed that she lost an incredible 500 pounds.

She’s An Inspiration
One of the best things about 1000-lb Sisters is how much inspiration fans find in the eccentric Slatons. Watching Tammy and her siblings lose weight has made so many people realize that they can do it too. Recently, poprecoverysystems posted a video to Instagram in which Tammy uses her fame to encourage others to embark on their own weight-loss journeys.
What’s Next For Tammy In Her Weight Loss Journey?
She Wants More Surgery
Losing weight quickly left Tammy with lots of loose excess skin. Aside from how it looks, it makes her life difficult. There’s so much extra skin hanging between her legs that she has to walk bow-legged. Though Tammy is eager to remove the skin, her doctor wants her to lose more weight first. Skin removal surgery is actually several different procedures, comes with a lot of risks, and costs a fortune, so the 1000-lb Sisters star may have to wait a long time before she can go under the knife again.
