Even though 1000-lb Sisters season 3 has only just started, this new chapter in the Slaton family's weight loss story has already proven to be one of the most dramatic so far. Although fans are only a few episodes into the latest season, Amy and Tammy Slaton have wasted no time getting to the nitty-gritty of their complicated situations. From disagreements over Tammy's new boyfriend to the beginning of the rift in the Slaton sisters' relationship, here are all of the biggest reveals that have already come out of 1000-lb Sisters season 3.
Based on the way season 2 concluded, it's no wonder season 3 is already one of the most riveting installments of 1000-lb Sisters yet. Throughout the past couple of seasons, Amy and Tammy's paths have parted as the siblings make disparate progress in their weight loss ventures. By the end of season 1, Amy underwent bariatric surgery, and come season 2's finale, Amy achieved her life-long dream of being a mother with the birth of her son, Gage.
Regrettably, Tammy has stumbled in her weight loss efforts. Unlike Amy, Tammy hasn't made significant headway toward her goal of qualifying for bariatric surgery. While Amy's enjoyed the benefits of her gastric bypass operation, Tammy's been distracted from staying committed to her diet and exercise regimen.
Tammy's Rehab Revelations
Although Tammy's criticized for not taking her weight loss seriously, the reality star kicked off 1000-lb Sisters season 3 on an encouraging note. When fans were first reunited with Tammy this season, she was making progress at a rehab facility for food addiction. Unfortunately, Tammy soon disappointed her family and viewers when she opted to leave the care center 40 pounds short of her 100-pound weight loss goal. Tammy claimed she wanted to leave early because she was homesick. When Tammy returned home prematurely, the Slaton family had to deal with Tammy's controversial decision which neither Amy nor Chris agreed with. Tammy also revealed that before checking into rehab, she rekindled her physical relationship with her infamous ex, Jerry Sykes. Viewers despise Jerry for enabling Tammy's food addiction and cheating on his wife, which made Tammy's return to him all the more shocking.
Amy & Tammy Fight About Getting A Nurse
The Slaton sisters are no strangers to conflict, and, sadly, it only took a couple of episodes in 1000-lb Sisters season 3 for Amy and Tammy to devolve into a nasty war of words. In the wake of Tammy's early exit from rehab, Amy and Chris tried to figure out a way to ensure their sister would stick to her weight loss commitments. One suggestion the Slaton siblings agreed on was hiring a nurse to assist Tammy. Unfortunately, Amy and Chris' suggestion didn't go over well for Tammy, who felt like her siblings weren't taking her opinion into account. This discussion turned into one of the Slaton family's most dramatic arguments as Tammy grew infuriated and started cursing at her younger sister. Ultimately, Amy decided to walk away from the table before the fight escalated. Although Amy didn't fight back, she admitted her feelings were hurt by Tammy's behavior.
Tammy's Relationship With Phillip
Fans are well aware Tammy's choice of romantic partners is a consistent problem for the television personality. Amy, Chris, and 1000-lb Sisters fans hoped Tammy learned her lesson from the disaster that turned out to be her relationship with Jerry. Disappointingly, Tammy demonstrated that she might not have become more discerning in her romantic interests. In season 3, Tammy's embarking on a relationship with TikTok star Phillip Redmond, A.K.A. BBWKing. Phillip's social media use indicates the new boyfriend only has an interest in dating women that weigh 300 pounds or more. Chris and Tammy fought over the family's concern that Phillip will hold Tammy back from losing weight. Tammy confessed Phillip doesn't want her to lose weight but she was angry at her sibling for getting involved in her budding relationship. Surely, Tammy and her siblings will have much more drama to sort through in 1000-lb Sisters season 3.
