"Tammy Slaton, a star of 1000-Lb Sisters, has addressed claims that she has gained weight. She recently faced criticism on TikTok from a viewer who expressed concern about her health, insisting that she had not gained any weight. Tammy is frustrated with viewers who do not believe in her weight-loss journey and urges them to trust her dedication and the sincerity of her efforts."
1000-Lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton is taking to TikTok to address the negative comments and questions she has been receiving about her weight loss. She is expressing her frustration and anger on the platform, and she is using this opportunity to remind her fans that she is not gaining any weight and that she is committed to her health and well-being.
"I hope you're still dedicated to losing weight. Looks like you've gained a few pounds since our last conversation!" the person commented while 1000-Lb Sisters star was revealing some gifts her fans had sent her. The critic made it known that they were “not a hater, but a supportive friend” to pacify Tammy. In response, Tammy posted a video where she was staring sternly into the camera with an accusing finger pointing at her phone too. Tammy declared, “I'm not gained any weight. I have not gained any weight.”
Tammy tried to explain to her fans that "it was the angle of the camera" that caused the negative unboxing clip. She had previously received hate from the show's viewers, with a viewer commenting on her gift opening that "I don't understand why people pay for these treats when they could be eating real food." Tammy addressed this comment in a subsequent video, explaining that she had to consciously choose not to eat the candy in front of her fans.
Tammy acknowledged that she had come across as "rude or irritated" to her followers, but she emphasized that she was doing so because of the lack of trust she felt from them. She stated that she had consistently proven her dedication to her weight-loss journey, and she expressed her disappointment when her followers questioned her commitment. Tammy acknowledged that comments questioning her dedication were hurtful, but she appreciated the support of some of her fans who were there for her.
Tammy hit a milestone in her weight-loss journey in December 2021 when she slimmed down to qualify for surgery. Tammy's peak weight was 717 pounds. She lost over 300 pounds since getting operated, and her near-death experience made her start attending rehab for food addiction. It prompted Tammy to take her health more seriously. In August 2023, Tammy weighed 448 pounds. Now, six months later, 1000-Lb Sisters' Tammy is making considerable progress in her personal life. Tammy had also been dealing with the death of her husband, Caleb Willingham, in June 2023, and she was arrested for drug possession just five days after Caleb's funeral.
