Tammy Slaton, who just underwent surgery, has received a lot of accolades for her recent weight loss efforts.
The 1000-Lb Sisters actress allowed TLC viewers a front-row seat to her weight-loss quest, with cameras there to record the moment she discovered she was under her 550-pound “goal weight” and thus a candidate for surgery.
On Monday, the 36-year-old posted two up-close photographs while posing in a pink T-shirt on Instagram to give her fans a brief update.
Fans praised her change in the comments section even though she didn’t provide an explanation for the photos.
‘Tammy I was seriously one of your biggest critics. It’s been amazing seeing your consistency within your health journey,’ one wrote.
‘Soon enough you’ll be approved for skin removal and just know we are all rooting for you! Proud of you!’

A follower shared: ‘You’re doing so amazing! You proved everyone wrong and proved to yourself you can do it! Amazing job!’
‘I’m soooo soooo proud of you girl. You took back your life and you did the damn thang. Keep it up because you’re my motivation [sic],’ another agreed.
‘So proud of you, Tammy! Your confidence and inner peace shines through in this pic,’ an Instagram user wrote.
As a commenter added: ‘You are so prettifull Mrs Tammy. Congratulations on your weight loss journey, and getting married.
‘Happiness & love look pretty damn good on you. Keep it up [sic].’
Tammy had previously reached her highest weight of 717 pounds, but she entered a food treatment facility and stayed committed to her objectives.
Last year, when she learned she might have surgery, her diligence had paid off.
‘When I got on the scale and I saw the scale was at 534.7, I kind of stopped breathing for a second,’ she told the camera after the appointment. ‘I’m like 14lbs under my goal weight. From over 700, that’s a huge drop.
‘I did that! I’m feeling thrilled, proud, excited – just all the emotions.
‘I proved everybody wrong. Everybody that doubted me, I finally got my told-you-so moment!’
