Tammy Slaton, the star of the 1000 Pound Sisters, has reached another major milestone in her weight loss journey. At her last weigh-in, she weighed in at 275 pounds, a remarkable achievement that left her delighted and her fans in awe.
Slayton revealed that she now weighs less than her older brother Chris Combs. She expressed her excitement, saying,
“Chris said he was 280 pounds, and now I weigh a little less than him. It’s mind-blowing.”
The 38-year-old star has made significant progress in recent months. Since her last visit to the doctor, she has lost 20 kilograms in just three months. Her brother Chris, who has supported her on this journey, expressed his pride and amazement at her remarkable transformation.
Slaton’s weight loss journey has been inspiring. In 2020, her doctor told her she needed to lose a significant amount of weight to qualify for bariatric surgery. Through determination and hard work, she successfully lost 200 pounds by 2022 and underwent the life-changing procedure.
Following her surgery, Slaton continued her weight loss journey, losing another 300 pounds in a year. This remarkable transformation has had a significant impact on her overall health and well-being. She no longer uses a walker or oxygen tank and has regained her independence.
As she continues her journey, Slayton is seeking to qualify for skin removal surgery. Dr. Eric Smith, her bariatric surgeon, explained that while it is generally recommended to wait 3-6 months after significant weight loss before considering skin removal surgery, Slayton’s case is unique due to the large amount of loose skin that affects her mobility and overall health.
