“1000-Lb Sisters” She’s Unrecognizable! – Tammy Slaton Finally Reveals Her Real Size Now!
At her heaviest, 1000-lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton wore a size 8XL, but she’s much smaller after bariatric surgery. When she made her 2020 television debut, her life was marked by severe physical and emotional struggles exacerbated by her size. Weighing over 725 pounds, she faced limited mobility, relying on a wheelchair or walker and requiring assistance for basic tasks like bathing.
Tammy’s health crises underscored the dire consequences of her obesity, compounded by food addiction and mental health challenges. Socially isolated and battling insecurities, Tammy’s quality of life was significantly diminished, with her size restricting clothing options, further impacting her self-esteem. Today, after losing over 500 pounds, the 1000-lb Sisters season 7 star’s life has transformed dramatically, and so has her dress size.
Tammy Lost 500 Pounds
It Was A Life And Death Situation For Tammy
Since making her 2020 debut on 1000-Lb Sisters, Tammy has embarked on a transformative weight-loss journey. She shed over 500 pounds from her peak weight of 725 pounds. Initially, Tammy’s size 8XL frame severely limited her mobility and clothing options. Despite her low quality of life, Tammy was reluctant to change, until a health crisis convinced her she needed to change her life, or she’d die.
Struggling with food addiction and depression, Tammy’s early attempts at weight loss were inconsistent, marked by emotional setbacks. Her turning point came with bariatric surgery in 2022. Post-surgery, the 1000-lb Sisters season 7 star committed to a healthier lifestyle, incorporating diet changes and light exercise, despite initial physical limitations. By June 2025, Tammy weighed around 225 pounds, and her life had changed completely.
This remarkable transformation has revitalized Tammy’s life. When she was overweight and trapped in her house, she was often angry and depressed. Now independently mobile, the 1000-lb Sisters season 7 star enjoys activities like dancing and explores fashion with newfound confidence. Her journey inspires viewers, showcasing resilience and the possibility of profound change despite immense challenges.
What’s Tammy’s New Size?
She No Longer Wears Size 8XL
Tammy was recently interviewed on A Creative Chaos Podcast, clips of which were posted to Instagram. During the podcast, Tammy reveals that she went from wearing a size 8XL to fitting into “almost a medium” since her weight-loss and skin removal surgery. The podcast’s host, who also had bariatric surgery, is beyond impressed, admitting that he doesn’t even fit into a medium.
“From 8X to almost a medium — Tammy’s weight loss journey is WILD,” reads the post’s caption.
“We talk before & after moments, the joy of baggy clothes, and celebrate the little (and big) victories along the way.”
At her heaviest, Tammy struggled to find stylish clothes. Now, the 1000-lb Sisters star can walk into any boutique and find clothes that fit.
