Fans Have Long Followed Tammy Slaton’s Journey, With Some Even Before 1000-Lb. Sisters Came Out

Viewers came to know Tammy and her sister Amy through the TLC series, 1000-Lb. Sisters. Ever since the show’s debut in 2020, fans have watched Tammy Slaton go through a lot through her weight loss journey.

Over the past few months, news had come out that the star had lost around 500 pounds, even requiring skin removal surgery. In addition to her TLC series, fans have also followed Tammy’s journey on social media. After all, many fans first discovered the sisters from videos they shared online from even before the debut of their TLC show.

However, fans recently took issue with Tammy over one of her recent social media shares. As some noted, she was seen drinking from a soda bottle during a recent post, amid her weight loss journey.

Fans of the show know that Tammy is fond of the drink, which she often refers to as “sodies.” In one famous exchange from the show, Tammy and Amy shared they thought that diet soft drinks helped “cancel out” sugar in their diets. During this time, Tammy admitted to drinking around “8 to 12” cans a day.

This past Tuesday, Tammy addressed these recent comments in a video on TikTok. Explaining the situation, she shared, “Everybody is different. I’m not supposed to drink the sodies as much and that was Sprite. Well, sorry! So…you’re right. You’re right.”

A Few Fans Came To Tammy’s Defense After She Responded To The Criticism

However, Tammy felt that it was important to remember that certain foods and drinks can still be enjoyed on certain occasions. As she explained, “In moderation, you can drink or eat whatever you want.” Noting she drinks more than soda, she added, “I drink a lot of water and I drink a lot of sodies but I’m still 3, 4 years post-op.”

Tammy admitted her behavior isn’t perfect, but she still maintains a positive attitude. She shared, “So everything I’m doing is not fine, but it’s okay because I’m still continuing on my diet. I’m still continuing to lose weight and I’m still hitting goals.”

Taking to the comments, quite a few fans came to Tammy’s defense. As many pointed out, the progress she’s showcased in recent years proves she can keep things under control.

• “Let Tammy have a sodie. Look at her she looks amazing and deserves to celebrate her success.”
