Tammy Slaton has been applauded by fans after showing off her 440-lb weight loss in a new poolside photo.
The reality TV star skyrocketed to fame through the TV show 1000-lb Sisters in which she starred alongside her sister, Amy Slaton-Halterman.
She has been long confined to a wheelchair due to her weight and had to go through several trials and tribulations to triumph over adversity.
Now at 37 years old, Slaton can stand and walk unassisted but she still has to use an oxygen tube to support her breathing.
