'1000-lb Sisters': Amy Slaton's brother blasts her over diet slip-up, says 'I'm not going to bite my tongue'
Amy Slaton and Tammy Slaton are back for another season as they decide to lose weight by undergoing bariatric surgery on TLC's series '1000-lb Sisters'. Last week was all about Tammy being called out for not just gaining whatever weight she had managed to lose but also becoming heavier than she was before. She had spiraled out of control during the lockdown. Sticking to her diet and exercising while being locked up was something she was not successful doing and that's the reason she ended up in a soup and was now worried that Dr Procter, who she is working with to reach a certain amount of weight in order to get the surgery, would "tear her a** apart".
However, she was somehow taking it easy because she was sure that her sister Amy would get the biggest share of the bashing from their doctor as she'd ended up pregnant just four months after getting bariatric surgery whereas she was advised to wait for at least two years before conceiving, in order to ensure the safety of her baby as well as her. Tammy couldn't walk without a walker for support and was seen running out of breath after taking a few steps, a very alarming situation given her condition. Her brother Chris decided he would take the weight loss journey himself in order to lose weight and support Tammy too. How that goes for the sibling duo is yet to be explored during the season. Talking about the episode that is airing tonight (January 11), Amy is in for a tough ride.
During last week's episode, Amy announced her pregnancy to the rest of her cousins and they all came together for a barbeque to celebrate the news. Amy and Tammy had decided to watch what they eat at the party while they were at home but as soon as they reached the party, Amy threw caution to the wind and ate her fill. Chris and Tammy exchanged looks of horror as they saw Amy and on tonight's episode, they are seen schooling her for her actions.
Tammy and Chris accuse her of using her baby as an excuse to indulge in food and get away from doing certain activities. Tammy even worries that if Amy continues putting on weight like she was, it wouldn't be long till her surgery was reversed. Amy on the other hand shed a lot of tears and was vocal about the fact that her siblings' outlook about her pregnancy and her eating habits left her feeling attacked. Tammy now turns to Chris and tells him that this is what she meant before when she told him that she bites her tongue a lot with Amy, implying that everything turns into a blame game too soon. Chris, the stricter sibling, appears unaffected by Amy's tears and explanations and tells her that "I am not going to bite my tongue". He is determined to ensure that his sister stays on track for her own safety. Watch the trailer below and catch the episode to find out how it unfolds.
'1000-lb Sisters' airs Mondays at 10 pm ET on TLC.
