The Slatons put themselves on YouTube. In one memorable video, the sisters took a "Chubby Bunny" challenge, as seen below, playing up their appetites for novelty-hungry fans.

Tammy Slaton Gets Cuter Every Day

Back in the "chubby bunny challenge" days, Tammy didn't seem so confident. In that video, she stuffed her face with Jet-Puffed marshmallows, possibly feeling like she was exploiting herself for money. Maybe she enjoyed it, but there's a chance that she didn't, as that happy and radiant look she has now just wasn't there. In contrast, in the post above, via 1000lb_realitytv_updates on Instagram, Tammy looks adorable with a shiny pink popsicle in the frame. She's clearly at peace and loving who she is now.

It's not easy for the sisters to expose themselves like this - they've been doing it for years, and they've gotten trashed by their critics. Amy's been torn apart for not wiping her babies' dirty feet while they played in front of the TV. Tammy's gotten shade for the excess skin she has after losing hundreds of pounds. While the siblings probably feel like they can't win, Tammy's thinner body is freeing her from a kind of physical and mental prison.

The elation in Tammy's face in the "popsicle" post is the real thing. It's freedom from a disability.

Some people never live with a disability - they don't know what it means when things change and the challenges aren't as extreme - those who have gotten help for their disabilities understand. It's life-changing, profound, and a miracle. Bariatric surgery means that Tammy isn't always stuck in a wheelchair or trapped at home. She's free. Every day, the joy inside of her is coming out - she's dancing and looks so fresh and rested. Her entire life experience has shifted, like she's inhabiting a different universe. It's epic.

Tammy Slaton Was Proud & Happy In Her New "No Filter" Selfie (& She Should Be)

Tammy Slaton Looks Wonderful Without The Filters

Tammy's TikTok is a place where this Leo woman can really roar. Leos are proud and usually have egos. Born under a sign ruled by the Sun, they use their God-given star quality to entertain their audiences. A typical Leo needs attention just like they need food, water and oxygen. When people don't make a fuss over them, they can't be happy. While Tammy has shown the diva side of Leo many times, she's often failed to display the big heart that is characteristic of this sign. Above, Tammy glows in an unfiltered selfie, smiling like a happy child.

This "big cat" is now the Queen of the TikTok jungle. Tammy's reportedly dating a woman named Andrea, so, like Katy, she's "kissed a girl." Maybe love is making Tammy so open and fun right now. However, before she started spending time with Andrea, she was already changing. In season 5, she helped Amy to care for her baby, Glenn. Tammy was very comfortable giving the baby its bottle - she seemed to love playing a maternal role. Maybe some lion cubs are in Tammy's post-weight-loss future.

Tammy's said she's interested in having children.

Tammy Slaton's Not Living For Her Trolls

Yes, she's sweeter now, but that doesn't mean there isn't any spice. On Tammy's TikTok, she's telling haters that she's

untouchable

At the same time, she's charming them with her sweetness - Tammy's dressing up in Minnie Mouse ears that would definitely get Katy's fashion stamp of approval. All the different sides of Tammy are showcased on the platform, and since Tammy hasn't posted on Instagram in months, she definitely seems to love TikTok the most. At TikTok, she can do so many things and her supportive fans are very kind to her, sending her presents that she opens up in some of her videos.

Tammy does have a little of Katy's taste for fun and costume-y outfits. 1000-Lb Sisters' Tammy Slaton's posed in a Grinch hoodie, a The Nightmare Before Christmas onesie, the aforementioned Minnie Mouse ears, and a Casper The Friendly Ghost t-shirt. Obviously, fun clothes make her happy. Playful outfits show Tammy's current state of mind - happy, grateful and proud.

It's so nice to see Tammy going into the light. She's choosing more bright colors, such as the hot pink Minnie Mouse shirt she wears in the TikTik shown above. Increasingly comfortable with her face and body, she's radiating good energy. Yes, she gets testy with fans sometimes, but they aren't true fans. They're the types of people who go on social media platforms to hurt others. So, Tammy's not wrong to call them out.

People who heckle Tammy online have issues of their own. Their mean-spirited attempts to hurt her sometimes succeed. They should consider all she's been through before indulging in "keyboard warrior" antics.

Tammy Slaton Looked Fierce In Black Leather

Tammy's Instagram isn't as vibrant as her TikTok "playground" but it's still fun. In the post above, the reality star started showing fans Tammy 2.0. Clad in black leather and Nike track pants, Tammy was going for urban street style. While Katy isn't an "all black outfit" person, Tammy has different moods. The black jacket, which may actually be "pleather," looks very modern and chic when paired with athleisure. However, Tammy's also thrown her Moto jacket over an evening gown, with equally stylish results. Learn about her weight loss journey with Amy below:

Tammy's a "firework," and the 1000-Lb Sisters star deserves love and kindness. Yes, she's been cranky in the past and still has her moments, but she's got some of Katy's X Factor. A person doesn't have to look like a pop diva or Hollywood A-lister to be a star. Anyone can rise up as an entertainer. It's about pleasing the public. More and more, Tammy's onstage for her fans, but it doesn't feel fake or contrived. Because she's so natural and engaging, Tammy's winning hearts.
