Amy started off at 400 pounds and has dropped all the way down to 270, making fans jump for joy at her progress. She even managed to live her dream by becoming a mother to her son Gage Slaton. The four-month-old is now healthy and happy. But sadly, the story with Tammy is off to a much slower start.
Tammy started at 600 pounds and quickly put on more weight. They are currently a little over a year into their journey, and she is up to 665 pounds. Brother Chris Combs who is new to 1000-lb Sisters is upset by this and shocked. He says; unfortunately, they have made preparations for her funeral. Their mother bought a double burial plot because of her size. And they sat Tammy down and told her they did not want her to die and want her to get better.
Smoke and Mirrors
1000-lb Sisters personality Tammy Slaton has called out the show before. The way they portrayed the sisters may not have always been one hundred percent accurate. She says that when Gage Slaton, her nephew, was born, she was very sick and depressed. She says that this affected her reaction towards Gage being born. This caused many fans to think she was not happy with his arrival into the world and that she was angry or even jealous of her sister, Amy Slaton, becoming a mom.
Tammy raged at fans and told them it was the producers of 1000 Pound Sisters that caused these thoughts. Also, they made it look like she did not care about him at all. She says she loves her nephew very much, and she is proud of Amy for being a great mom. Tammy herself doesn’t want children but wants to be a supportive aunt. She is even losing weight in an assisted living home to live longer for him.
