1000-lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton shared a strange, but pointed message to her critics on Christmas, explaining that she wasn’t happy about the criticism she faced from fans. Throughout the last several seasons of 1000-lb Sisters, Tammy’s been through a lot in every area of her life. With her physical health finally moving into a space that can allow her to move a bit more freely in life, Tammy turned her attention to her personal life more thoroughly. With Tammy having gone through a lot of personal turmoil over the years, she’s sought comfort and support from her online followers.
While Tammy’s been looking for a way to move forward in her life, she’s been talking more with her followers online as she’s moved through recent months. In a strange Instagram story, Tammy shared some annoyance she’s had with her fans as she’s gotten some requests for personal FaceTime calls. “I love yall but if you come at me and continue to FaceTime me and I don’t answer because I’m busy…that doesn’t give anybody the right [to call me out],” Tammy shared on her Instagram story. She made it clear she’s not happy with people speaking down to her online.
What Tammy’s Christmas Message Means
She Wants Privacy & Respect
Although Tammy’s been working hard to maintain her weight loss and keep her health her first priority, it’s clear there are some social issues she’s been dealing with throughout her time after weight-loss surgery. Tammy shared with her followers that she’s not happy with the way they’ve been speaking to her, but the pretenses around her message were strange. It appears that Tammy’s been allowing 1000-lb Sisters fans to message her and FaceTime her outside of the series, talking to people personally throughout the last season. While Tammy’s usually friendly on the show, talking to fans is somewhat odd.
Tammy also shared that she wasn’t happy about the way people were talking to her after she missed or didn’t return their calls, explaining that viewers weren’t being appropriate with her. With viewers calling Tammy out, she was struggling to understand the hostility they were feeling toward her for not answering their calls. While Tammy’s message was a bit blunt, it’s clear she wants the privacy and respect she deserves from people who are contacting her outside of a professional context. With fans reaching out to Tammy directly, it’s clear she needs a new boundary to keep things civil.
Our Take On Tammy’s Christmas Message
She Should Put Some Space Between Herself & Her Followers
Although Tammy has never been a traditional person, seeing her respond to followers about speaking to them personally was strange. While Tammy may have made a lot of connections through 1000-lb Sisters, the fact that she’s talking to them directly is somewhat concerning. Throughout 1000-lb Sisters, viewers have watched Tammy make some strange decisions within her social life, but after her extreme weight-loss, it may be time for her to develop boundaries between herself and her online following. The 1000-lb Sisters star needs to decide who she should allow to get quite so close.
