Tammy agreed to go to rehab for her food addiction at the start of Season 3. And for a little while, her family was optimistic about her progress. She even lost 60 pounds. That win prompted Tammy to leave rehab with the claims that she'd continue to make healthy choices at home.
Unfortunately, that didn't happen, and Tammy gained some of the weight back.
Tammy shared an Instagram photo at the end of November 2021 which showed a tracheotomy tube inserted into her throat. Fans continue to worry about her overall health. Tammy explains on 1000-lb Sisters that she feels it's pointless to try and lose weight in order to have weight loss surgery.
