1000-Lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton has defiantly given fans a glimpse into her weight loss transformation.
TLC viewers have had a front-row seat into the 37-year-old’s efforts over the last few years, thanks to her iconic TV show.
Taking to Instagram, she proved just how far she has come – while also stripping back her use of filters in rare videos.
Responding to one fan who begged her to turn the animations off, she proudly declared: ‘This is what I really look like. Okay? Have a nice day, babe.’
When others in the comments begged her to ignore the trolls, Tammy insisted that the comments weren’t ‘getting to her’, but she slammed people for being ‘judgmental’ about what she shares on her page.
Having none of it, a follower replied: ‘She LITERALLY films a TV SHOW without a filter and has been open and vulnerable.
‘I’m not understanding why anyone has an issue with filters on here. Again, A WHOLE TV SHOW WITH NO FILTER.’
Another encouraged: ‘Tammy u use filters as much as u want!!! We loooove u!!! [Sic].’
‘You look amazing, don’t let them feel relevant. We know your journey,’ one said.
An Instagram user commented: ‘They’re acting like we haven’t seen you on tv for years! you do you, girl.’
Under another post, in which she confirmed that she was posing without filters, Tammy was asked for her weight loss tips.
The reality star swiftly replied: ‘You proteins low carbs, no sugars no pop portion control.’
Tammy’s transformation journey has been documented on 1000-Lb Sisters, the TLC program she fronts with sister Amy Slaton.
Season four focused on her return to a food rehab center after she almost lost her life in hospital at the end of the previous series.

After taking time to recover, the TLC favorite checked back into the weight loss facility, refusing to be deterred from her goal.
Speaking to People Magazine about her efforts, Tammy said: ‘I was able to make my lungs strong enough to get my trach [tracheostomy tube for breathing] out, and then recently the doctor cleared me to be off my oxygen machine during the daytime.
‘Now I only wear my oxygen at night, along with my BiPap machine.
‘I’m feeling great! I’m thankful to be alive, and it’s fun to be progressing as much as I am.’
