Amy Slaton Celebrates a Major Milestone in Her Weight Loss Journey on 1000-Lb Sisters
When fans first met Amy Slaton on 1000-Lb Sisters, she was on a challenging path toward health and wellness. Since undergoing bariatric surgery, she has successfully maintained a weight below 300 lbs, marking significant progress on her journey.
A Proud New Achievement
In the current season, Amy proudly shares that she has achieved a substantial weight loss during her visit with Dr. Smith. With her trademark humor, she joked that the secret to her success was a divorce and the challenges of raising two kids as a single mother. While she expressed interest in skin removal surgery, her siblings encouraged her to focus on losing additional weight first.
In a teaser for tonight’s episode, Amy goes shoe shopping and candidly admits that she’s unsure of her current shoe size due to her weight loss. She’s experienced reductions in her chest, stomach, and even her feet, making this outing particularly special.
At the store, Amy tries on heels for the first time in years, filled with excitement about the possibility of wearing glamorous footwear without the fear of breaking a heel. This seemingly small achievement brings her to tears, highlighting the emotional weight of her journey.
“These heels feel amazing. It’s hitting me that I’ve lost weight,” Amy tells the camera, visibly moved. “And I’m not gonna break the damn heel. This is a significant moment for me.”
As tears well up, she admits, “I f***ing wore heels for the first time, sorry. Just knowing I’ve lost enough weight to wear heels and actually want to wear them on a date is overwhelming.”
Support from Fans
Amy has faced numerous obstacles, but the support from 1000-Lb Sisters fans has been unwavering. Initially, many viewers worried about Tammy Slaton’s ability to qualify for bariatric surgery. However, with dedication and effort, she is now on track for skin removal surgery as well. Could Amy be next?
While Amy appears to be thriving on screen, fans are aware that this season was filmed months ago. Recently, she and a male companion were arrested at a zoo on drug charges, underscoring the need for continued positive changes in her life. If she wants to maintain her progress, making smarter choices will be crucial moving forward.
