‘1000-lb Sisters’ star Tammy Slaton “thankful to be alive” after jaw-dropping 183Ib weight-loss – just look at her now

Losing weight can be a daunting task for many of us. Whilst burning more calories than you consume on a daily basis looks to be a simple task on paper, there are so many factors that often make any concerted effort to drop a few pounds troublesome.

Which is why individuals who take the bold step towards losing weight should be commended and supported, even more so when they’re prepared to document their journey for others to see.

If any of our readers are partial to watching TV, you’ll probably be familiar with Tammy Slaton, of 1000-lb Sisters fame. The reality star weighed in at an incredible 717lbs after admitting to a serious food addiction, and knew she had to make huge adjustments to her lifestyle if she wanted to live for much longer.

Well, the 36-year-old embarked upon a battle to shed as much weight as possible, and has now said she’s “thankful to be alive” after losing around 183Ibs in recent months!

Appearing on camera in the latest season of 1000-lb Sisters, Tammy, who dropped from 717lbs to 534lbs, said: “When I got on the scale and I saw the scale was at 534.7, I kinda stopped breathing for a second.

“I’m like 14 lbs under my goal weight. From over 700, that’s a huge drop.

“I’m feeling thrilled, proud, excited… just all the emotions. I proved everybody wrong. Everybody that doubted me, I finally got mine! My told-you-so moment!”

And it’s not only a pleasant surprise on the scale that Tammy has to be happy about, but a whole host of additional benefits that come with her new lifestyle.

According to reports, Tammy can now walk independently, whereas she needed a wheelchair to get around before her weight-loss journey began. Not only that, but her new, healthier approach undoubtedly saved her life.

Prior to her success, Tammy spent time at a food rehabilitation center, but had to be rushed to hospital after she stopped breathing. The 36-year-old needed a to breath, and was placed in a medically induced coma.

Fortunately, Tammy recovered from her ordeal. Moreover, it proved to be the wake-up call she needed.

She told People Magazine: “I wised up and got my surgery. I was able to make my lungs strong enough to get my trach out, and then recently the doctor cleared me to be off my oxygen machine during the daytime.

“Now I only wear my oxygen at night, along with my BiPap machine.

“I monitor my oxygen levels throughout the day and keep my machine on hand in case I need it.”

What an inspiring turn around for this brave woman! And what a great example she’s setting for others.
