1000-Lb Sisters: Tammy Slaton's Best OOTDs Since Incredible Weight Loss Journey

1000-Lb Sisters: Tammy Slaton's Best OOTDs Since Incredible Weight Loss Journey

Summary Tammy Slaton lost over 400 pounds after a health scare that led her to rehab and surgery.

Tammy's increased mobility post-weight loss has allowed her to expand her fashion choices.

The 1000-lb Sisters family has collectively lost over a thousand pounds through their weight-loss journeys.

Tammy Slaton lost over 400 pounds since the 2020 premiere of 1000-lb Sisters, and she looks like a different person. When she made her television debut, Tammy weighed almost 700 pounds. Though she started her weight-loss journey during season 1, she wasn't as committed. In fact, instead of losing weight, Tammy went up to 720 pounds, which was her heaviest. It seemed every time Tammy stepped onto a scale, she gained weight. She was struggling with a debilitating food addiction, but she was stuck in an endless cycle.

When a health scare landed the 1000-lb Sisters season 5 star in a medically induced coma, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. It made Tammy realize that if she wanted to live, she had to lose weight. She checked herself into a diet rehab facility to address her eating addiction, after which she focused on diet, exercise, and bariatric surgery to reach her weight-loss goals. Since shedding the pounds, Tammy has been posting outfit of the day clips to TikTok to show off her dramatically slimmed-down figure.

Tammy Rocks A Black Tee & Leggings

Keeping It Simple

People with average clothing sizes take it for granted how they can easily find fashionable, well-made clothing wherever they go. Before losing weight, Tammy was a size 8XL at her heaviest, so finding something to wear was a challenge. At larger sizes, there's simply less clothing readily available to buy off the rack.

Now that the 1000-lb Sisters can shop at regular clothing stores, her fashion options have expanded exponentially.

In April, Tammy posted a TikTok captioned "#OOTD," which garnered over two million likes. In the clip, she shows a full-length view of her slimmed-down silhouette in a casual black tee shirt and leggings combo. She shows off the outfit to the song "Plus-Size Freestyle" by Samyra, which is about the lack of fashionable plus-size clothing. Considering her fashion struggles over the years, that subject is near and dear to Tammy's heart.

Flower Power

Tammy has always loved bright colors, and that hasn't changed since losing weight. In January, Tammy posted a TikTok clip of herself showing off her outfit of the day. In the clip, she's wearing a wildly colorful tie-dye top that screams flower power. In a nod to one of Tammy's weight-loss milestones, she's also wearing jeans, which would have been impossible for Tammy to wear before she lost weight. At size 8XL, she could never find a pair of jeans that fit her correctly.

In the 18-second TikTok video, which has over 75,000 likes, Tammy lifts her shirt slightly to show off that her jeans have a zipper and front button closure, as opposed to an elastic waistband.

1000-lb Sisters fans took to the comment section to share their amazement at seeing Tammy dance. One person wrote, "I remember when you had trouble standing and taking a few steps.. now look at you! Dancing and having fun." Another person concurred, writing, "To see you go from losing your breath just standing up to literally dancing is amazing!!" Though the internet isn't known for being a nice place, Tammy has always received a lot of support in the comment section.

Working Those Earth Tones

In August 2023, in the middle of her weight-loss journey, Tammy posted a full-length mirror selfie on TikTok. In the clip, she is dancing to "So Beautiful" by Mr Mitte as she shows her outfit. The 1000-lb Sisters star zooms in on her cool pants with the checkered panels, then her earth-toned halter top, which she wears layered over a textured black tank top. She finished off the look with a sunflower print scarf around her neck.

Tammy's dancing in the clip is a big deal. Before losing 400 pounds, not only was it difficult for Tammy to move around, but she struggled to stay balanced without a walker, so dancing was out of the question. These days, Tammy doesn't miss an opportunity to show off her moves on social media. The post received almost 700,000 likes and 196 comments. The journey of the 1000-lb Sisters star has always been an endless source of interest and inspiration, and that extends to social media.

It's Her Favorite Color

Full-length bathroom mirror selfies are Tammy's preferred OOTD delivery method, and since losing weight, she has leaned into the genre. In another August 2023 TikTok post, Tammy shared several mirror selfies of herself wearing purple plaid pants, a black top, and a denim button-up shirt. Around her neck, Tammy was wearing the familiar sunflower bandanna. During an episode of 1000-lb Sisters season 3, Tammy and her sister, Amy Slaton, held a fan event where fans answered trivia questions about the sisters. Tammy's favorite color was one of the trivia questions; the answer was purple.

The post has over 73,000 likes and the caption reads, “From wearing 8xl in clothes to a 2xl”

Tammy's not the only 1000-lb Sisters star who lost weight. Since making her television debut, her sister and co-star, Amy, also lost 125 pounds on her own weight-loss journey. Not to be left out, other members of the Slaton family have joined in on the fun. Their brother, Chris Combs, lost over 150 pounds, while their sisters, Amanda Halterman and Misty Wentworth, had bariatric surgery on the same day in 2013. Though the Slatons have lost over a thousand combined pounds over the years, they are all still working on losing more weight while inspiring others with their incredible journeys.

1000-lb Sisters seasons 1-5 can be streamed on MAX and Discovery+.
