Tammy’s wedding preparations were the main emphasis of the previous season of 1000-Lb Sisters, which is returning to TLC with a new season that will focus more on Tammy’s wedded life and recovery journey.
The overweight sisters Amy Slaton-Halterman and Tammy Slaton are the subject of this TLC series. They’ve decided to lose some of their extra weight and change into better versions of themselves. The sisters’ weight loss journey hasn’t been simple, and they still periodically struggle to give up their bad old habits.
Even though Tammy and Amy were the only family members to participate in the TLC show, we have already seen Misty and Amanda, Amy’s brother Chris Combs, and Amy’s partner Michael Halterman.
They often encourage the sisters to reach their goal of maintaining a healthy weight because they all want to do that. As Season 4 drew to an end, Amy battled to find time for both her own needs and Tammy’s wedding.
Recap
Tonight, in the 1000-lb Sisters premiere, we go over the events of the previous season. Finally, Tammy had weight-loss surgery. Furthermore, she wed a handsome man without much delay, and her family did everything they could to support her. However, Amy had more than one kid.
She was at first ecstatic. Her ambition has always been to have a family. Her weight loss surgery allowed her to do it. Amy should have been happy with her two children, but she wasn’t. It began to feel like she was outnumbered. Her two kids are younger than two.
It was not easy. She was grateful for any help she got, even though her spouse wasn’t giving it to her. Michael had completed his check-out. He stayed right there. He wasn’t motivated to help at all after everything that had happened.
After everything they had done to become pregnant, Michael felt as though he had abandoned Amy. He refused to allow her to sleep at all with the second baby. She was the only one who could accomplish everything. Her life had been in utter chaos. She was caring for her older child while cradling her younger infant in her arms.
She claimed to be weary after everything, but this was untrue. On her alone, she was not a mother. She was married to a man. He was at the house all day. Why wouldn’t he offer assistance? Amy had no choice but to turn to her family for support because no one else was willing to help. Tammy was coming home.
It was her means of leaving the rehabilitation center. She stayed solely because she got to know Caleb, and that was their only chance to spend time together. Caleb is not yet qualified for surgery. He is still wearing a trach.
The nurses would not allow him and Tammy to share a bed, so their beds were moved to the same room so they could remain together. They moved in together as roommates after that. Their marriage hasn’t been fully consummated. They joke about the day Caleb makes enough money to move in with Tammy in her new home.
When Amy confronts Michael about his lack of assistance in raising their two boys, everything in Amy’s world completely collapses. Meanwhile, Caleb hasn’t been completely honest with Tammy. Tammy throws a housewarming party and gives her mother some harsh words.
