1000-lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton appears to be doing very well in terms of her weight loss program, as a comparison of new and older photos shows. The Kentucky native's path to where she is today was rocky, especially after her near-death experience. It now looks like Tammy has finally gotten out of her own way, and committed to a healthier lifestyle.
On 1000-lb Sisters, Tammy was known for her lack of motivation. Even though her doctors warned her about an array of health issues, Tammy found excuse after excuse to continue leading an unhealthy lifestyle. While her sister Amy Slaton qualified for gastric bypass surgery during season 1, Tammy has spent the last three seasons clashing with family members, and feeling sorry for herself. As fans watched the end of season 3, Tammy was rushed to the hospital due to a collapsed lung. While doctors feared she wouldn't make it, Queen Tammy somehow pulled through.
Tammy Slaton Is Thinner Than Ever
1000-lb Sisters celeb Tammy finally qualified for her gastric bypass surgery this past summer. When the prior season concluded, Tammy was hanging out in an Ohio rehab facility, and still sporting a trach in her neck, which helped her to breathe. The TLC star was still quite heavy, but she was drinking diet soda instead of sugary pop. It remained to be seen whether Tammy could stick to her health plan, and start shedding the weight.
Tammy Slaton Is Making Progress
A few weeks after Tammy's surgery, the 1000-lb Sisters celeb had a minor setback, due to complications from her surgery. Instead of being released from the rehab facility, doctors let Tammy know that she should stay longer, so nurses could keep an eye on her. Thanks to this extended stay, Tammy's been able to really start losing the extra pounds.
Fans Are Seeing A Whole New Tammy

Muscle definition was visible, and her face looked slimmer. With a new season now airing on small screens, it's time to see Tammy turning over a new leaf.
