In the new episodes, Tammy admits that she’s proud of everything she accomplished so far, but she still has quite a bit of work left to do. But in the meantime, she’s allowing herself to enjoy many new “firsts” that weren’t available to her before.

Tammy Slaton Wants Her Family & Fans To Appreciate The Little Things

As soon as the last season of 1000-Lb Sisters came to a close, fans couldn’t wait to see Tammy Slaton and her family onscreen again. Now they’re back and ready to keep pursuing their health and wellness goals.

This season, viewers will get to see Tammy accomplish many “firsts.” She has a brand new world to explore and she can’t wait to get started. Season trailers reveal the family will even explore England in future episodes.

Right now, the TLC star wholeheartedly wants to appreciate the smaller things in life.

“Now that I’ve lost so much weight, I’m able to do things that I never would have been able to do,” Tammy proudly admitted in a confessional. “I think people do take the small things for granted.”

“Being able to cross your legs and put your shoes on … I’m able to sit comfortably on the toilet,” the TLC star added. “I’ve never been able to do that.”

The 1000-Lb Sisters Star Isn’t Finished Yet

Tammy is excited about her new life and the possibilities ahead of her. However, her excess skin still bothers her. Like many other people in her position, the excess skin causes problems for both her physical and mental health. Tammy doesn’t like how it looks, but it also chafes and causes rashes. 1000-Lb Best Friends star Vannessa Cross is in a similar situation. 

“I get rashes under my stomach and that can get infected. And even though my mobility has gotten better, I kind of have to walk a little bow-legged because it’s dangling right there,” Tammy explains, pointing out specific areas on her body she wants addressed. “So I’m hoping I’m ready for skin removal surgery.”

Hopefully, the TLC star will have her wish granted.

What do you think of Tammy Slaton’s progress over the past few years? Are you hoping to see her receive skin removal surgery this season? Be sure to leave your own thoughts and ideas in the comments.

New episodes of 1000-Lb Sisters start at 9 PM Eastern time each Tuesday night on TLC. Follow TV Shows Ace online to see what the family is up to next.
