Amy Slaton’s Weight Loss Progress and Personal Life

The text suggests that Amy Slaton’s weight loss journey has been “impeded” following personal challenges, particularly her divorce from Michael Halterman and her new engagement to Brian Scott Levor.

• Initial Success: Amy initially joined the show to document her weight loss, starting at over 406 lbs. She successfully lost enough weight to qualify for bariatric surgery in 2019, shedding 176 lbs over the next two years.
• Challenges and Prioritization: During her separation from Michael, Amy reportedly experienced significant depression, leading her to prioritize mental health and creating a healthy environment for her two children, Gage and Glenn, over weight loss. She stated, “You can’t have weight loss without mental health.”
• Recent Concerns: In Season 7, Amy’s brother Chris Combs expressed concern about her health, noting, “I’m smaller than Amy now.” Viewers also observed that Tammy, who was once 200 lbs heavier, now appears lighter than Amy, sparking fears that Amy may be regaining weight or has “reversed the effects of her gastric bypass.”
• Future Goals: Amy still aspires to undergo skin removal surgery but reportedly hasn’t lost enough weight to qualify. While she has found happiness with her new partner and is no longer depressed, the text notes she doesn’t appear to be actively pursuing weight loss, possibly due to maternal duties and filming commitments.
• Fan Reception: While initially acclaimed for her commitment, Amy has recently faced more criticism than commendation for her stagnating progress, despite plateaus being normal in weight loss journeys.

Tammy Slaton’s Weight Loss and Mental Health Journey

The text praises Tammy Slaton’s “significant progress” since the show’s inception but raises concerns that she may be “overly fixated on numerical metrics” while neglecting crucial internal healing related to her mental health.

• Commendable Physical Transformation: Tammy has made remarkable weight loss progress, which is highlighted as a major milestone worthy of celebration. Viewers observe her improved independence and ability to navigate life after years of adversity.
• Neglected Mental Health: Despite her physical achievements, the text emphasizes that Tammy’s “mental health has been a long-standing challenge” and she appears to be “overlooking a crucial aspect of her well-being.” Viewers are “distressing to witness her neglect this vital issue.”
• Unresolved Issues: The narrative suggests Tammy has accumulated “significant resentment” and numerous mental health issues over the years, which have hindered her progress and continue to manifest as “concerning behavior” in Season 7.
• Therapy and Self-Sabotage: While Tammy has discussed her mental health and undergone evaluations for surgery, the therapists on the show don’t seem to provide “substantial assistance,” and Tammy continues to exhibit “difficult and isolating behavior.” She is described as her “own most formidable adversary,” often inhibiting herself due to her weight and past experiences.
• Future Challenges: The text asserts that Tammy’s “most challenging aspects of her journey lie ahead,” focusing on addressing the “long-standing mental issues” she has faced rather than just physical milestones. It suggests that she is “evading these issues,” finding it arduous to revisit her past struggles, but must confront them for complete healing.

Amy’s Artistic Pursuits

The text briefly mentions that Amy Slaton has “cultivated a genuine appreciation for art over the years and has been showcasing her creations on Instagram,” indicating an “artistic phase” she is embracing.
