I am convinced that Tammy Slaton’s extraordinary weight loss gave her a second chance at true happiness

Tammy Slaton has lost an incredible amount of weight since the premiere 1000-lb Sistersand I am convinced that he was never happier. The unscripted series, which premiered in 2020, focuses on the dramatic weight loss journeys of 37-year-old Tammy and her 36-year-old sister Amy Slaton. When she made her television debut, Tammy weighed over 600 pounds, and even though she was supposed to try to lose weight, she put on even more weight, at her worst weighing up to 720 pounds.

When a serious health scare almost killed me 1000-lb Sisters season 5 star, she dealt with her food addiction, underwent bariatric surgery and lost an incredible 500 pounds. Losing weight has been an incredible achievement that has changed Tammy’s life for the better, but the road hasn’t always been easy. Tammy has faced some difficult challenges in recent yearsbut I have always been so inspired by Tammy’s ability to dig deep and make all her dreams come true.

Storm romance

When Tammy’s health scare sent her into a week-long medically induced coma, 1000-lb Sisters the season 6 star checked into a rehab center to lose weight. While there, Tammy met another patient, 41-year-old Caleb Willingham, and they immediately hit it off. Although Tammy usually dated much thinner men, she fell in love with Caleb and they were quickly married in a small wedding attended by family and friends.

Unfortunately, Tammy and Caleb were only married for a few months before Caleb died of health issues. Unlike his famous wife, Caleb couldn’t focus on losing weight. Tammy was devastated by the loss of her husband, but she was able to stay on her weight loss path, which I strongly believe that Caleb would have wanted to.
