In the clip, the 1000-Lb. Sisters star clarified that it isn’t a “chin flap.” It is excess skin that she will have to have removed at some point. “It’s literally excess skin and yes, it will go away when I get skin removal surgery,” she said in the video. “And I cannot answer, before anybody asks, when I’m getting skin removal because I don’t know.”
Then Tammy let them know how she feels about comments like this underneath her videos. “My problem is, you say you’re not trying to be rude, yet you’re rude by asking and pointing it out,” Tammy told the camera. “Can’t I live my life without y’all judging me, making fun of me for every little freaking thing? I can’t duet a friend without y’all thinking I’m trying to bang them. I can’t be happy and smile without y’all judging me because my teeth are missing.”
The TLC star also added that these types of comments left her feeling hurt and irritated. She admitted that she often receives comments comparing her neck to a turkey, and comments about her teeth and face.

She continued, “I’m trying to better my life and better myself. We should be lifting up people.”
