Tammy Slaton Loses Forehead Bump As She Is Down Over 500 Lbs
1000-Lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton has shed more than 500 lbs and couldn’t be happier.
Over the past few seasons, fans have cheered Tammy on as she continued pushing toward her weight loss goals. Today, she looks much different than she did when 1000-Lb Sisters first premiered on TLC. Most notably, Tammy managed to shed her infamous forehead bump.
As she explained onscreen, skin removal surgery is her goal at the moment. Even though she isn’t quite ready yet, Tammy still has quite a lot to be proud of.
Check out her before and after photos.
Tammy Slaton Sheds Her Forehead Bump After Losing 500 Lbs
During the 1000-Lb Sisters season premiere this week, the production crew really highlighted Tammy’s journey. The new episode featured several flashback clips, demonstrating the dramatic changes in Tammy’s appearance. Even she admits she’s amazed at her accomplishments.
“I’m down 500 pounds now, around 500,” the 1000-Lb Sisters star proudly declared during the season premiere. “When I was at my heaviest, I was 700-plus pounds. Right now, I’m weighing in at 238.”
Losing over 500 lbs is no easy feat, especially for Tammy. Fans recall how stubborn and angry she was when the show began. She still has many hurdles to overcome, but she is much more mobile now than she was during Season 1.
As the new episode continued, Tammy’s siblings commented on her weight loss journey. One family member even remarked that Tammy lost her forehead bump, which was significantly pronounced during the show’s early days.
Healthcare professionals deemed the bump to be a deposit of excess fat that hung over her eyebrows. Once Tammy started losing significant amounts of weight, it disappeared too.
The TLC Star Still Seems To Be Struggling With Her Mental & Emotional Health
When Tammy struggled with her weight in previous seasons, her emotions could be extremely volatile. Once she started making progress in rehab, fans noticed her mental state improving. Last season, Tammy fought with Amanda, but seemed overwhelmingly agreeable with the rest of her siblings. She even shared many positive messages on social media.
But during the season premiere, fans immediately saw Tammy’s darker side reemerge.
During a fun family outing at the lake, Tammy refused to swim with her siblings. She also accused her family members of failing to think of her mobility, which surprised many. Last season, she boarded a plane for the first time to visit London, which was a much bigger feat. Even the production crew asked Tammy to clarify her thought process, but she hissed that she didn’t want to talk about it.
Tammy might have lost 500 lbs, but it’s clear that she still has a long way to go in regards to her mental and emotional health.
