Summary
1000-lb SistersstarTammy Slatonhas lost 440 pounds since she made her television debut, and it changed every aspect of her life. Before she lost weight, Tammy lacked mobility and independence.

Everything changed when a health scare landed the1000-lb Sistersseason 5star in the hospital. When she woke up from her week-long medically induced coma,she realized she had to lose weight. She had bariatric surgery and never looked back. Down to 285 pounds, Tammy’s face, body, and attitude have transformed completely.
