1000-Lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton looks slimmer than ever.
The reality TV star once weighed over 700lbs when she first appeared on TLC’s weight-loss show with her sister Amy in 2020. But the last time Tammy weighed herself on the scales, she was just 281lbs.
A clip posted to TLC’s Instagram showed her weighing in at 281.2 pounds on the scale and showing off her trimmed figure in a slinky black top. “I think the last time I weighed 281 [pounds], I was in fourth or fifth grade,” she said.

Tammy, 38, says she now weighs less than her older brother Chris Combs. “Chris said he weighs 284 [pounds],” she said. “I now weigh a little less than Chris. That’s mind-blowing. I’m the baby sister, but I’m not the ‘big’ baby sister no more.”

Tammy said she lost about 20 pounds over the course of three months after weighing 303 pounds during a visit to the doctor’s. Chris, who couldn’t believe how much weight her sister had lost, said: “She’s always been Tammy — big.”
Tammy has been documenting her weight loss since appearing on the TLC series, where she weighed around 725 pounds. She then shed a whopping 200 pounds within two years.

Doctors had told her she would need to lose some weight in order to be eligible for bariatric surgery. After getting the procedure in 2022, Tammy lost around 300 pounds and in April of this year, Tammy had shed an incredible 440 pounds.
She used to use an oxygen support tank but no longer needs it. Tammy told People last year: “I was able to make my lungs strong … And then recently the doctor cleared me to be off my oxygen machine during the daytime.

“Now I only wear my oxygen at night, along with my BiPap [bilevel positive airway pressure] machine. I monitor my oxygen levels throughout the day and keep my machine on hand in case I need it.”
Tammy wants to get skin removal surgery but was told in an upcoming episode of the show that she’d most likely have to wait another year due to her recent surgery. Tammy was advised to continue losing weight until she qualified for the other op.
