😭 Heartbreaking Turn! Tammy Slaton’s SHOCKING Weight Gain After Surgery — Fans FEAR The Worst!

‘1000-lb Sisters’ Roundup: Weight Loss Milestones, Health Scares, and a Tragic Loss

The Slayton family from TLC’s “1000-lb Sisters” continues to make headlines with major life updates, including significant weight loss achievements, health concerns, a new entrepreneurial venture, and the tragic passing of a beloved family member.

Tammy Slayton Achieves Major Skin Removal Surgery, Fights Off Gain Rumors

Tammy Slayton, who recently achieved an incredible weight loss that qualified her for a highly-anticipated skin removal surgery on her upper body, is now facing speculation about her current progress.

Fans on social media have debated whether Tammy is rapidly regaining weight after a screenshot of her face from a TikTok video sparked concerns about fat and loose skin accumulation around her chin. However, many viewers have come to her defense, arguing the appearance could simply be residual loose skin—not all of which was surgically removed—or the result of further weight loss. Tammy herself has reportedly confirmed her commitment to her strict healthy lifestyle and diet, vowing not to repeat past poor eating habits.

In other news, Tammy has ventured into the world of handmade crafts, revealing on Instagram that she has started making and showcasing her own adorable handmade jewelry including necklaces, earrings, and bracelets. Following in the footsteps of her sister Amy, whose creations have been sold online and at exhibitions, fans are eagerly awaiting the launch of Tammy’s new business.

Amanda Halterman’s Health Worries Fans Despite Weight Loss

Tammy and Amy’s sister, Amanda Halterman, has also reached a significant weight loss milestone, potentially shedding close to 200 lbs. She recently shared a heartwarming video posing with her new grandson.

Despite her body transformation, fans have expressed growing concern over Amanda’s health, speculating that her doctors may be pushing her too hard for weight loss at the expense of her overall well-being. Amanda has reportedly struggled with uncured heart issues for the past five years and was rushed to the hospital with cardiac arrest earlier this year. Responding to fan concern, Amanda admitted that while her picture might make her look ill, she is “to an extent,” revealing she is taking a lot of medication to control her symptoms. The ambiguity of her post has left fans worried and wanting more clarity on her condition.

Season 8 Confirmed and a New Title Suggested

Following an emotional and celebratory Season 7 finale that saw Amy and Tammy reach major weight loss goals—dropping their combined weight significantly below the original 1000-lb premise (Tammy at 215 lbs and Amy at 249 lbs)—speculation was high that the series might conclude.

However, Tammy Slayton herself officially confirmed that a Season 8 of 1000-lb Sisters is “definitely happening.”

The Slayton family’s nostalgic trip in the Season 7 finale, where all the siblings (including Chris, Misty, and Amanda) weighed themselves at a junkyard to celebrate how far they’ve come, has led to fan suggestions that the show should be renamed. Given that the series increasingly features the entire Slayton clan, many fans believe the title should be changed to “1000-lb Family” to better reflect the focus of the ongoing reality series.

Tragic Passing of Cousin Katie Slayton

The Slayton family suffered a tragic loss with the death of their cousin, Katie Slayton, who had previously appeared on the show. Katie passed away at the age of 37 on August 25th after bravely fighting Stage 4 gastric adenocarcinoma, a rare form of stomach cancer she was diagnosed with earlier this year.

Sister Amanda Halterman shared the heartbreaking news in an emotional tribute on Instagram, calling Katie “the life of the party” and asking for prayers for the family. Katie was featured most prominently in Season 5 of the series following Tammy’s release from rehab.
