Tammy Slaton shared her unfiltered reaction on 1000-Lb. Sisters to weighing less than her brother, Chris Combs, for the first time in decades.
In a clip from the show shared on Wednesday, November 13, via Instagram, Tammy, 38, revealed the last time she stepped on a scale she weighed 303 pounds. Three months later, she is down to a jaw-dropping 281.2 pounds.
“I’ll be goddamned. Congratulations, that’s good!” Tammy’s brother, Chris, said in the video.
Tammy was equally as excited about the achievement. “Chris said he weighs 284 [pounds]. I now weigh a little less than Chris. That’s mind-blowing,” she said in a confessional. “I think the last time I weighed 281 [pounds], I was in fourth or fifth grade. I’m the baby sister, but I’m not the ‘big’ baby sister no more.”

Chris, 44, was in awe of Tammy’s recent milestone, telling the cameras, “Tammy’s success makes me ecstatic.”
He then confessed, “Did I ever think I’d see the day that she was smaller than me? Well, no, probably not, because I never thought about her being smaller than me. She’s always been Tammy, big.”
