Tammy Slaton is a 1000-lb Sisters star whose journey hasn't been easy, and fans don't feel that her decision to drink alcohol is doing her much good. Since starting her weight loss journey, Tammy has made more than one selfish decision when it comes to her health. There is still plenty of work for Tammy to do before she can leave the rehab center, and fans believe that she should embrace sober living.
From the start, Tammy has had an onslaught of physical and mental health issues. She often takes her frustrations out on those closest to her and rarely apologizes for her outbursts. For three seasons, Tammy has ignored her doctors' advice and continued to live an extremely unhealthy lifestyle. She has complained about how bland healthy food tastes and thrown back a drink or two with her friends. While she may feel that she is just blowing off some steam, some people who follow the show feel that she is doing herself more harm than good every time that she cracks a beer.
1000-lb Sisters fans watched as Tammy's physician Dr. Eric Smith brought up the issue of the star's new interest in drinking excessively. Dr. Eric made it quite clear that her drinking would put her health at serious risk. However, Tammy didn't seem startled by the revelation. Tammy already battles depression on a deep level, and drinking often exacerbates her sadness. Tammy tried to justify her drinking, claiming alcohol helps to take the edge off, especially when she is alone or stressed. However, there are better ways to blow off steam.
Along with drinking, Tammy has also taken up vaping. She had no problem admitting that she drank eight bottles of alcohol a week. Her willingness to drink concerned the doctor and fans, who felt she was using her depression as an excuse to live a sedentary life. Tammy's doctors have already tried to explain that if she exercised more, she would naturally start to feel better. The total amount of alcohol that Tammy is ingesting is quite concerning and could negatively impact her health.
Sadly, instead of improving her health, Tammy often gives off the impression that she would rather wallow in her own self-pity. Tammy has been staying in a rehab facility since October after she fell into a coma. The 1000-lb Sisters physicians were not sure she would ever wake up, but she finally did. Viewers are hoping that she chooses sobriety in the future.
