DIXON, KENTUCKY: '1000-lb Sisters' star Tammy Slaton's weight has dipped below 400 lbs after her weight loss surgery in early 2023. She weighed around 375 lbs in early 2023. She has dropped about 350 lbs since her body transformation, per The Sun.

Tammy is reported to have been maintaining a strict diet and has been following all the weight loss rules. It seems that Tammy is competing with her sister Amy Slaton when it comes to cutting down weights.

"Tammy weighs only 30 lbs more than Amy right now," per The Sun. Amy weighs around 225 lbs as reported by Pinkvilla. Therefore, Tammy's weight could be around 255 lbs.

TLC star Tammy has been struggling with losing weight for a long time now. Recently, the reality star took to TikTok to upload a slide show of her recent pictures.

From the photos uploaded, it seems like Tammy has drastically lost weight. Her face looks chiseled and thinner than before.

In the first three photos, the star is seen wearing a t-shirt and flaunting her spectacled look with different backgrounds and filters. In another picture, we see Tammy wearing a black dress. Her neck skin seems to have loosened even more because of the weight loss.

Tammy Slaton started with 600 pounds in TLC's '1000-lb Sisters'

When Tammy was first featured in '1000-lb Sisters' she weighed around 717 lbs. She was on the verge of major health issues. In order to qualify for weight loss surgery, she had to make it down to 550 lbs, per People. The star made it to 534 lbs.

Tammy had her bypass surgery in 2022.

She managed to cut down 100 lbs but gained it back when Covid came. In Season 3 of the show, the reality star lost 115 lbs. She then started posting selfies on social media, talking about the confidence she got from weight loss, per US Weekly.

In Season 4 she had her weight loss surgery. She then got down to 375 lbs.

'1000-lb Sisters' star Tammy Slaton needs $85K skin removal surgery

Losing more than 100 pounds leads one to be left with extra skin and the same has happened with Tammy.

In order to remove the extra skin, Tammy needs to go through skin removal surgery. Since Tammy's case is an exception as she has lost huge weight, she might need a big pocket to go through the surgery.

Dr Richard Westreich explains the cost of the surgery needed in an interview with The Sun. He says, "For Tammy’s face, she would get a facelift or a direct neck lift where you cut out skin from the center of the neck before closing it up."

A neck life is reported to take 5 hours and cost around $35K. Moreover, abdominoplasty for the lower abdomen, the doctor noted, takes two to three hours of surgery, costing around $20K.

Tammy also needs a leg lift, costing around $15K for two hours of surgery. She will also need to remove skin from both her arms, costing $15K with an additional two hours of surgery. This totals to $85K with 11-12 hours of surgery.
