Fans of 1000-Lb. Sisters have wondered if the TLC star’s impressive progress means she is close to weighing less than Amy, 35.
An insider close to Tammy cleared up the speculation and told The U.S. Sun: “Tammy weighs only 30 pounds more than Amy right now.”
The source claimed: “It’s hard for Amy to focus on herself as she’s taking care of the two kids.”
Amy shares her two sons, Gage, two, and Glenn, one, with her estranged husband Michael Halterman, 40.
The insider claimed Tammy is determined to continue her weight loss journey.
According to the source, the reality star has been sticking to her healthy habits and strict diet.
Tammy has shed so many pounds in recent years that she has been struggling with excess skin.
She’s working toward a skin removal surgery and is planning to have the procedure “very soon.”
Tammy’s pal shared: “Tammy wants to get rid of all of the excess skin around her neck.
“It’s a big source of insecurity for her,” the insider concluded.
SLIMMEST SLATON
As documented on 1000-Lb. Sisters, Amy began her weight loss journey weighing over 400 pounds.
While Amy was able to shed 125 pounds, undergo a gastric bypass surgery, and be at a healthy weight to birth two children, Tammy struggled.
Her weight increased to an alarming 717 pounds before she was rushed to the emergency room in 2021.
In the following year, Tammy spent time in a weight loss clinic in Ohio.
After all of her hard work, she has dropped a shocking amount of weight and totally turned her life around.
Over the summer, The U.S. Sun reported Tammy now weighs a little under 340 pounds – while it’s been estimated that Amy weighs around 225 pounds.
It is unconfirmed if Tammy has lost more weight or if Amy has gained weight to close the previous 115-pound difference.
MORE TAMMY
Season four of 1000-Lb. Sisters wrapped after filming Tammy’s late husband Caleb Willingham’s funeral.
Last month, The U.S. Sun reported an insider claimed the TLC crew is already set to start rolling for season five.
“The season will be about Tammy’s upcoming skin removal surgery,” the source revealed.
A timeline for the episodes and Tammy’s preparations for surgery have not yet been confirmed.
FRESH START?
If season five doesn’t pan out, a source previously told The U.S. Sun that Tammy is considering a shift in her career to modeling.
Tammy is looking to “grow her platform,” and the source said: “Well, I can’t say if there is or is not going to be another season, but Tammy is looking at other opportunities.”
The 1000-Lb. Sisters insider stated: “Tammy wants to represent people in her community who have been through what she has been through.”
Back in February, a source claimed Tammy and her family have been in talks with another production company to start filming a spin-off show.
According to the insider, tensions have been high between the Slaton family and producers, and they’ve been at odds over salaries and the narrative of the show.
Meanwhile, Tammy is determined to keep shedding the pounds.
