Tammy Slaton is celebrating a major milestone in her weight loss journey!
The 1000-Lb. Sisters star recently revealed that she has shed an incredible 500 pounds since beginning her transformation.
In an inspiring TikTok video shared on August 17, Tammy joins six fellow “weight loss warriors” as they proudly display their achievements.
Set to Andra Day’s uplifting song Rise Up, the video showcases each participant’s weight loss, with a combined total of 2,078 pounds lost.
The group walks hand-in-hand, symbolizing their shared commitment to a healthier life.
Tammy, 38, expressed her appreciation for her friends, writing, “Truly absolutely amazing ladies, and I’m happy to call y’all my friends.
I’m so proud of each and every one of y’all. Not only are you beautiful on the inside, but you’re gorgeous on the outside. Never forget.”
Overcoming Challenges and Finding Joy
Tammy has been open about her health struggles since 1000-Lb. Sisters premiered in January 2020. After undergoing bariatric surgery in July 2022 and spending 14 months in a weight loss rehabilitation center, she has continued to document her progress on social media and television.
By December 2023, she had successfully lost 48 pounds, bringing her total weight loss to over 500 pounds.
Her journey hasn’t just been physical—it has also been deeply emotional.
In a February TikTok video, Tammy shared how weight loss transformed her mental health.
“Before I went to rehab, I felt really angry, sad, and struggled with thoughts of ending my life.
But since then, I’ve seen so many changes in myself. I treat my family and others better, my attitude has improved, and I find myself smiling a lot more these days,” she revealed.
Embracing Life’s New Experiences
Tammy has celebrated more than just weight loss—she’s also embracing new experiences.
“I actually got on rides at Disney World. And I rode in a hot air balloon,” she excitedly shared. “I value life now, whereas before, I hated everything about it.”
In April, she posted a poolside picture with her friend, psychic medium Haley Michelle.
Fans flooded the comments with support, with one writing, “Wow! The change is amazing! I’m so glad to see how much you’ve grown. I might have shed a tear or two.”

Since 2020, Tammy has shared her transformation with fans through 1000-Lb. Sisters and social media. By the end of 2023, she had reached approximately 285 pounds, marking a loss of 440 pounds.

However, not all moments have been joyful. On July 1, Tammy honored the memory of her late husband, Caleb Willingham, writing, “Rest in peace, my sweet angel. You will always be missed and loved dearly. Thank you, Caleb, for teaching me what true love and happiness really are.”
