1000-Lb Sisters: Why Tammy’s Recent Weight Loss Hasn’t Impressed Fans

Tammy Slaton has failed to make meaningful headway in her fitness goals throughout her run in 1000-lb Sisters, but now that Tammy’s actually lost weight, some fans are still unimpressed with the television personality’s accomplishments. Since season 1, viewers have criticized Tammy as she’s struggled to follow through with her health goals, gained more weight, and jeopardized her wellbeing. From her current condition to her chances of maintaining her momentum, here’s why Tammy Slaton’s recent weight loss hasn’t impressed 1000-lb Sisters fans.

Tammy has been miles away from achieving her weight loss goals since she and her sister, Amy Slaton-Halterman, simultaneously embarked on their health quests in 1000-lb Sisters season 1. Unfortunately, Tammy hasn’t kept up with her younger sister’s stride as Amy successfully qualified for bariatric surgery by the end of season 1 and lost enough weight to give birth to her son, Gage, in 1000-lb Sisters season 2. Tammy, on the other hand, took an apathetic approach to her fitness venture and has only gained weight since setting off on her health expedition in season 1. In the latest 1000-lb Sisters season 3 episode, however, Chris Combs shared that Tammy lost an encouraging 115 pounds. Sadly for the entertainer, Tammy’s recent weight loss hasn’t impressed all fans.

After years of Tammy Slaton falling further from her fitness aspirations in 1000-lb Sisters, viewers have virtually lost all hope in Tammy’s ability to reclaim her health. By sharing that she had finally managed to lose a significant amount of weight, Chris proved many of Tammy’s naysayers wrong. And while there are plenty of 1000-lb Sisters viewers that are thrilled with Tammy’s latest progress, others are reluctant to believe that the reality star is on track to turn her life around. For starters, viewers are skeptical of the conditions that aided Tammy’s recent weight loss. At the end of season 3, Tammy’s taken to a hospital because she couldn’t breathe. Tammy was in critical condition at the hospital, which fans think contributed to her weight loss. A Reddit user explained, “[Tammy] was basically in a coma for… 2 weeks, so it makes sense she lost weight.”

Skeptical 1000-lb Sisters fans aren’t sure that Tammy would’ve managed to lose over 100 pounds if she was conscious and feeling like her normal self. Although fans would like to believe that Tammy will be inspired by the progress she made while at the hospital, the Slaton family’s followers find it difficult to trust Tammy won’t just revert to her unhealthy ways. One fan asserted, “If she… can show she is willing to make better choices then I’d be proud.” Sadly, Tammy’s demonstrated that she doesn’t always learn from her run-ins with death. Even while relying on an oxygen tube, Tammy vaped regularly, prompting fans to believe nothing will get through to the reality star. A commenter shared, “I couldn’t feel good for Tammy… that health scare taught her nothing.” The entertainer’s lack of control over her health explains why Tammy’s recent weight loss hasn’t impressed fans.

After sidelining her weight loss goals in 1000-lb Sisters seasons 1, 2, and 3, Tammy’s followers have doubted that the Slaton sister would ever prioritize her health. Although she just lost over 100 pounds, Tammy’s recent weight loss hasn’t impressed fans who claim she will be back to her old ways as soon as possible. Hopefully, her latest weight loss breakthrough will inspire Tammy more than it has the 1000-lb Sisters fanbase.
