Nearly the entire cast of 1000-Lb. Sisters seemingly packed up and jetted off to Florida for a little family vacation and fans of the TLC series can’t help but wonder how they paid for what was surely a pricey trip. Photos making rounds on social media reveal Chris Combs, his wife, Tammy, Amy, Amanda, Glen, and Gage were all on this getaway. Fans suspect Misty and a few other relatives likely tagged along. Fans, however, are also pretty sure Michael and Caleb were NOT included in this Florida getaway.

Transporting anywhere from eight to ten people to Florida, finding a place for them to stay, feeding them, and doing exciting things ends up being a pretty hefty bill. Moreover, fans really aren’t sure how long the family stayed in Florida or what they did while they were there.

Now, Amanda Halterman has opened up on TikTok about being a pretty frugal individual. She’s not a woman who likes to live beyond her means. And, she claims she’s never let the reality TV spotlight or money go to her head. Knowing what fans know about the TLC network, they suspect this Florida trip didn’t really cost the family much of anything.
