TLC’s1000-Lb Sistersfocuses on Kentucky siblings Amy and Tammy Slaton.
TLC’s1000-Lb Sistersfollows the two siblings in their attempt to lose enough weight to qualify for bariatric surgery.
Yes, you trolls and spiteful haters.
If you don’t like Amy Slaton then don’t watch her channel.
Spreading hate and negativity will destroy you [from] within."
Without y’all Idk where I’d be."
She shared that she’s coped with two blood clots, pneumonia, and several medical procedures.
She was even being placed on life support in the past.
“I’m tired of being sick all the time,” she admitted.
“I’m just done.”
In March 2019, Tammy shareda videoof herself in a hospital bed after being admitted for yet another malady.
“I’m not afraid to let people see me.”
“When she died, our whole world changed.”
“Depression and just trying to live all kind of caught up with us.”
Another tweetread, “This is just depressing.
How in the world could…I mean it’s just really sad.”
“The #1000lbsisters was actually…good?
I’m surprised i liked it!”
In the video, Tammy asked, “What the heck’s a Dressed Banana?”
Finally, the sisters took a taste of their culinary creations.
“Slimy yet satisfying,” quipped Tammy.
Guess that’s one way to promote a show.
“This is actually day-to-day stuff that we deal with.”
“I [always] wanted to be a mom.
“My husband Michael means the world to me.”
She also added, “He’s really supportive of helping Tammy.”
In addition to removing sugar from their diets, they reportedly embraced “low-carb, high-protein” foods.
Each also settled on a favorite form of exercise.
After their experience on the show, both sisters said their self-esteem has grown by leaps and bounds.
“I’m beautiful the way I am.”
“The food part is okay,” Amy said.
“The sodas were really hard.
“But mostly, I’ll just drink water and coffee,” she said.
Tammy agreed that giving up soda was also her biggest challenge.
Discussing their sudden fame, Amy told Indiana’s44 Newsshe was glad she had her sister by her side.
“It’s easier to go through the journey with somebody rather than alone,” she said.
“But we just know that the other one is going through the same thing.”
“We made front page!”
she declared in the video, showing a large photo of the sisters on the newspaper’s front page.
Her tweet received an array of positive response from her Twitter followers.
“I’m trying to lose weight due to depression so I know how challenging it can be.
Just wanted to let you know that I’m so proud of you,” the fantweeted.
“You really touched my heart in ep2 … You’ve got this Tammy.”
The following week, theJanuary 29 episodewas cable’s eighth most-watched show.
A week later,another fanasked the same question and received a very different response.
Season 2would ultimately premierein January 2021.
Amy, in fact, achieved her goal of shedding enough pounds to qualify for bariatric surgery.
While that would seemingly be joyous news, Tammy wasn’t happy.
Are you freakin' serious?
You know you’re not supposed to be pregnant right now,'” griped Tammy.
Of course, as anyone who’s watched TLC’s1000-Lb Sisterscan attest, Amy is hardly a typical mom-to-be.
This was demonstrated in her slightly nutty registry.
Another item on the registry is a $200 electronic chair, which is purported to facilitate breastfeeding.
“I just kind of want to update…
I did end up getting tested positive for COVID.”
Tammy admitted she had hoped she “didn’t get it, but it is what it is.”
She revealed that coronavirus wasn’t the only health woe she was dealing with.
She concluded by promising she was “doing great and I’ll be out soon.”
That gave Tammy an idea.
“I dare you [to put] a peppermint patty with an eggroll,” she challenged.
“You done desecrated some good s**t and made it bad,” Tammy complained.
Amy agreed to disagree, replying, “It’s actually pretty damn good.”
Rednour married the Slaton sisters' mother, Darlene Rednour, in 2013.
“He loved his dogs, enjoyed fishing, sightseeing, and bird watching,” the obituary added.
Tammy’s weight, on the other hand, hadn’t really changed by a whole lot.
