1000-lb Sisters: Chris Combs Joins In
1000-lb Sisters has Chris Combs, who along with his sisters Tammy Slaton and Amy Slaton has started trying to lose weight. Tammy is the largest who started her weight loss timeline at 600 pounds and Amy and Chris both began with just over 400. Amy lost over one hundred pounds and is on her way to living a healthier lifestyle. But Tammy, on the other hand, is almost back to 600 after tipping the scales to almost 700.
I love Chris from 1000lb sisters so much he’s so wholesome and pure 😭

Chris sees the difference between the pair and opts to get weight loss surgery himself. Amy received the surgery not too far into her progress, whereas Tammy is still trying to get qualified. Chris did also manage to get approved for gastric bypass, but he was told to quit smoking. But a bigger scare might make him unable to get it at all.
TLC Star Gets Emergency Surgery
1000-lb Sisters’ Chris Combs is on the way to making a better life for himself and his family by losing weight. But unfortunately, some news comes to him at a terrible time. While he was able to lose enough weight to get qualified for surgery, this victory was short-lived. Chris got a yeast infection on his inner thigh that requires emergency surgery. He explains that this happens when people are his size because of the excess of skin.
Thankfully he recovered from the surgery but not without backsliding. Chris tells his sister Amy Slaton that he was bedridden for months because of his leg surgery. Within this time span, he gained forty pounds and fears that he might be denied gastric surgery due to the weight gain. But he has a plan that will hopefully put him back on track before he sees a doctor again.
1000-lb Sisters: Get in Shape Fast with Chris Combs ‘Hillbilly’ CrossFit
Chris Combs from 1000-lb Sisters is determined to get back in shape so he can still qualify for weight loss surgery. He’s been eating well but now faces the facts. Eating right is only half the battle. Chris knows he needs help, so he hires a CrossFit trainer to come out and help. When Chris learns what the trainer has plans, he says it’s ‘Hillbilly’ CrossFit.
Chris’ workout consists of him using PVC pipe to go back and forth over his head, smacking a tire with a sledgehammer, picking up hay bales, squatting with large chains, lifting logs, and axing the logs. He understands that this is helping him lose weight, but it’s making him tired.
Hopefully, this will be enough to help Chris get back in shape.
