Tammy Slaton's New Smile: A Brighter Chapter After Dramatic Weight Loss
Tammy Slaton's Glamorous New Smile Sparks Joy After Battling Trolls
In a bold move, Tammy Slaton, the 39-year-old reality star of the hit show "1000-lb Sisters," is proudly flaunting her dazzling new smile on national TV. The stunning transformation comes after she faced relentless criticism from trolls who couldn't resist taking potshots at her teeth.
Slaton's jaw-dropping new look was revealed on Tuesday's episode of the popular podcast "Creative Chaos" hosted by Hunter Ezell, where she opened up about the emotional journey behind her latest makeover. As she beamed with pride, showing off her gleaming new choppers to a packed audience, it's clear that Tammy is finally feeling like herself again.
The reality star's incredible weight loss journey has been nothing short of remarkable. Having once tipped the scales at over 700lbs, Slaton has since shed an astonishing 500lbs through dedication and hard work. Her newfound confidence is palpable as she tackles life head-on, and her new smile is just the icing on the cake.
So, what sparked Tammy's decision to finally take action against her critics? The answer lies in a bridge of artificial teeth that was anchored between two permanent ones – a solution that not only improved her appearance but also boosted her self-esteem. However, Slaton revealed that she still has some way to go before achieving the perfect smile.
"It's temporary still," she explained candidly, sharing that her dental professionals had to remove some of the artificial teeth due to complications. "They had to cement [the artificial teeth] in because the glue wasn't holding. Well, my body was rejecting it." Despite these setbacks, Tammy remains optimistic about her future dental endeavors.
"I'm still getting more done with it," she said matter-of-factly, hinting at upcoming procedures that will complete her smile transformation. "It's a process."
Ezell couldn't help but praise Slaton's progress, stating that it seemed like "everything's great" for the reality star after her latest major changes. However, Tammy playfully corrected him, saying, "Some of them." It's clear that the trolls are still out there, but Slaton isn't letting their negative comments get to her.
In a tongue-in-cheek comment, Ezell quipped, "If you ain’t got people who constantly got something to say about you, you ain’t doing good in life." To which Tammy responded with a cheeky grin, "Haters make me famous."
This isn't the first time Slaton has confronted her critics. Back in January 2024, she clapped back at a troll on TikTok who dared to comment on her teeth. In a video that quickly went viral, Tammy politely yet firmly told the critic to focus on lifting others up rather than tearing them down.
"Getting my teeth fixed costs money that I don't have right now," Slaton explained, highlighting the financial struggles she's faced during her weight loss journey. "I had to calm myself down before I replied because I really wanted to go off on you." The reality star went on to remind her followers that it doesn't matter if she has missing teeth – what matters is that she's alive and thriving.
Slaton's new smile is just the latest chapter in an incredible transformation. After losing around 200lbs from her high of over 700lbs, she was able to undergo bariatric surgery, which helped her shed another 300 pounds at a rapid pace. Her dedication to her health and well-being has inspired countless fans who follow her journey on social media.
In the end, Tammy's story is one of resilience and determination. She's proven that even in the face of criticism, it's possible to rise above and emerge stronger than ever before. As Slaton herself said, "I'm not gonna let you or anyone else ruin my day." The future looks bright for this inspiring reality star!
