‘1000-Lb Sisters’ Tammy Slaton Reacts To Skin Removal Denial
When 1000-Lb Sisters wrapped up for the season, Tammy Slaton made a surprising revelation to her medical team. She’s been vaping for quite some time and isn’t sure she wants to give it up. Her family didn’t seem shocked, but her medical team strongly discouraged the habit.
If Tammy doesn’t give up vaping, she might never receive skin removal surgery. But the TLC star might not be prepared to call it quits just yet.
Tammy Slaton Must Give Up Vaping
During the 1000-Lb Sisters season finale, Chris Combs finally received his own skin removal surgery. Tammy sincerely hoped she would be next since her excess skin severely inhibited her mobility.
“It’s hard to walk because of the skin. I walk like a daggone penguin. My belly goes this way and I’m going that way,” she admitted during a confessional.
However, she knew there was something potentially standing in her way.
“So there’s one thing I haven’t told my doctors about and it could mess up the chances of having skin removal,” Tammy confessed during the season finale. “I do vape. I mainly use it for anxiety. It helps calm me down.”
The TLC star has started vaping multiple times a day, every day. If she struggles with sleep, she’ll even do it in the middle of the night. Naturally, her medical team didn’t approve.
“So No. 1 we got to get you off the vapes completely, No. 2 the nutrition is really important,” Tammy’s doctor informed her. “We got to get those numbers up. That’s going to take about two months minimum. So we can’t schedule the surgery now until we can get all these things worked out.”
However, that wasn’t at all what she wanted to hear.
“I think I might need a five ‘cause I’m gonna flip. I’m pissed now,” Tammy huffed in frustration during the episode. “I don’t give two sh*ts about it.”
The TLC Star’s Family Knew About Her Secret Addiction
Vaping habits can be tough to hide. And it seemed like Tammy’s family knew about the vaping. She seemed to kick her food addiction in rehab, but she picked up another harmful habit.
“I know it’s going to be really hard for her to quit vaping because instead of turning around one addiction, she went to another one. She went from food to vaping. I think it’s her security blanket at this point.,” her younger sister Amy Slaton added in the episode.
