The TV celebrity weighed almost 400 pounds at the conclusion of her 14-month rehab treatment, and she is now almost half the size she was before the start of the treatment. In order to get her life back on track, Tammy Slaton checked herself back into rehab in 2021.
According to a source who spoke to The U.S. Sun , “When Tammy was first in rehab, she needed to reach her goal weight of 550 pounds from around 700 pounds in order to be approved for her bariatric surgery.” In the summer of 2022, Slaton got a life-altering operation after achieving her ideal weight during the fourth season. Another source informed The U.S. Sun that she has lost another 150 pounds since then.
