Tammy Slaton Looks Unrecognizable Following Plastic Surgery

Tammy Slaton almost looked unrecognizable in a new video after undergoing excess skin removal surgery on her chin and losing over 500 pounds.

The 38-year-old reality TV star took to TikTok to share a series of stunning clips, using the opportunity to show off her slimmed-down figure and appearance. Tammy also looked loved up in the clip alongside her new girlfriend, Andrea.

"You know I never found love until I looked into your eyes," a singer in the backing track of one of the videos can be heard singing.

"I'm so used to seeing all this hanging [from] my arms, and now when I wake up Sunday or Saturday, I'm not going to have this anymore," she continued.

Meanwhile, Tammy was quite startled after hitting her weight loss goal.

Starting the series at over 700 pounds, she was stunned when she took to the scales in the TLC reality show's seventh season, as it was revealed she now weighed 201 pounds, a far cry from what she weighed five years ago.

The clip was posted on TLC's Instagram page, with the caption: "Tammy can't believe her eyes when she steps on the scale on #1000lbSisters."

"Am I reading that wrong?" she asked before the number was confirmed. "I've lost about 50-something pounds since being here?"

Tammy was all smiles as her sister Amy congratulated her: "201lbs, that's freaking amazing, girl."

"I can't remember the last time being this small," Tammy admitted.

In a confessional, she later explained: "When I got on the scale, and I seen it said 200, I was like, 'There ain't no way I'm looking at that right.'"
