“1000 pounds. Sisters star Tammy Slaton shared another important update in her weight loss journey.

“I think the last time I weighed 281 (pounds) was in fourth or fifth grade,” she said, adding that she now weighs less than her older brother, Chris Combs.

“Chris said he weighs 284 (pounds). I now weigh slightly less than Chris. That’s mind-boggling,” continued Slaton, 38. “I’m the little sister, but I’m not the ‘big’ sister anymore.”

Slaton revealed that she lost about 20 pounds in three months after weighing 303 pounds when she went to a doctor’s appointment.

Combs admitted in a confessional that he never thought his sister would be smaller than him, saying, “She’s always been Tammy — big.”

The TLC star has been documenting her weight-loss project on the reality series since 2020, when she weighed about 325 pounds.

Within two years, Slaton lost 200 pounds after doctors told her she needed to lose some weight to qualify for bariatric surgery.

After undergoing the procedure in 2022, Slaton shared her lost about 300 pounds the following year and Lost 440 pounds by April 2024.

Slaton’s dramatic weight loss has led her to ditch her walker, the oxygen support tank she Used for 15 years.

“I was able to make my lungs strong… And recently the doctor cleared me to be off my oxygen machine during the day,” she told People in June 2023.

“Now I only wear my oxygen at night, along with my BiPap (bilevel positive airway pressure) machine. I monitor my oxygen levels throughout the day and keep my device on hand in case I need it.”

In addition to exercising, Slaton is looking into invasive weight loss treatments and plans to go under the knife for skin removal surgery.

Per clip posted on TLC’s Instagram On Thursday, Slaton was told by a doctor in an upcoming episode that she would likely have to wait another year before having the procedure, as she only recently had her weight-loss surgery.

The doctor advised Slaton to continue losing weight until she is eligible for the procedure.
