AMY and Tammy Slaton have started their weight loss journey on reality television in 2020, and it appears the underdog came out on top.

Amy, 35, and her older sister Tammy, 36, kicked off their show 1000-lb Sisters in January 2020.

When the show started, Amy weighed over 400 pounds, and Tammy’s highest weight was over 700 pounds.

The younger sister was able to get her weight loss surgery in the first season.

After she had undergone the procedure, Amy got pregnant twice and her weight loss appeared to have plateaued.

Tammy’s struggle with food addiction and her mental health prevented her from receiving her surgery until season four.

Once she did, she dropped the weight like crazy and, based on recent photos, she appears to continue to lose weight.

Some fans have started to think that Tammy might be thinner than her sister.

A fan created a thread on Reddit that posed the question: “Does anyone else think Tammy … is smaller than Amy now?

“I mean, I don’t know how much she weighs, but Amy looks stalled while Tammy is starting to look even smaller.

“What do y’all think? Also, I didn’t realize how short Tammy is. She’s tiny.”

BUTTING HEADS

Other fans on the 1000-lb Sisters subreddit were quick to chime in on the TLC sisters’ weight loss.

One said, “Amy only started losing weight again once Tammy got her surgery. I think she always told herself she was all right as long as she was smaller than Tammy. Once Tammy started losing, she got busy.”

Someone else commented, “I think when Tammy has skin removal surgery, she and Amy are gonna be close in weight.”

“Tammy is still larger than Amy. But Tammy has lost WAY more than Amy,” said a third.

Another wrote, “I think Tammy has a different, more even weight distribution. Amy is very belly-centric which makes her look bigger imo, but Tammy overall has more fat and mass on her.”

UP AND WALKING

Last week, Tammy reshared a new video on her Instagram Stories that showed her walking up to two doctors.

The video was originally shared by Dr. Eric Smith, who added text that read: “The best birthday surprise.”

Dr. Smith performed the television star’s weight loss surgery after he supported her during the approval process.

In the clip, she was seen walking on her own after losing over 300 pounds and being on her drastic weight loss journey.

Tammy wore a gray cardigan and a floral-print dress over a pair of leggings as she walked the halls of the doctor’s office.

“Something’s missing!” Tammy exclaimed at the beginning of the clip.

Doctors around could be heard saying things such as: “Look at you!” and “That’s awesome!”

One doctor noted Tammy was no longer using the aid of an oxygen tank, which Tammy said she hasn’t needed during the day for roughly two weeks.

She was put on oxygen after a scary brush with Covid-19 that put her in the hospital and threatened her life.
