Tammy Slaton showed off her latest milestone on her weight loss journey.
On Wednesday, the 1000-Lb. Sisters star posted a video on Instagram, where she posed in a pair of jeans in front of a mirror for her phone’s camera. In the video, the 37-year-old stood in front of the mirror while wearing blue jeans and a camouflage-printed hoodie sweatshirt.
This latest video follows the TLC star’s recent posts where she’s been showing off her full body since she underwent weight loss surgery in 2022.
Slaton received an outpour of support after posting the video to her official Instagram account.
Fellow TLC star, Vannessa Cross, from the 1000-Lb. Best Friends series, commented, “Look at my QUEEN🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘❤️.” Slaton’s bariatric surgeon, Dr. Eric Smith wrote, “So incredibly proud of you!!!!!”

In August, Smith reposted a reaction to his patient’s TikTok video that showcased her transformation, which included a side-by-side video of Slaton alongside various photos of her body before and after her 2022 weight loss surgery.
“Blown away by @queentammy86’s incredible transformation! It’s moments like these that remind us why we should never give up on our patients. Their strength and determination can lead to amazing accomplishments. So proud! 👏🏽,” Smith wrote in the Instagram caption.
Before the reality star’s 37th birthday in July, Slaton shared a mirror selfie of her full body transformation for the first time since her surgery, posing in a floral maxi dress.
Slaton also published a series of photos of herself sitting in a wheelchair and watching the sunset by the waterfront before her birthday. In the photos, she gazed out at the water, showing off her pink dress and butterfly-shaped hair clip.
Ahead of the initial peeks into Slaton’s progress, she told PEOPLE in June, since both her surgery and her near-death experience in 2021 — when she was put on a ventilator and placed in a medically induced coma after family members said she stopped breathing — she's been feeling "great" as she continues her weight loss journey.
“I wised up and got my surgery," she told PEOPLE. "I was able to make my lungs strong enough to get my trach [tracheostomy tube for breathing] out, and then recently the doctor cleared me to be off my oxygen machine during the daytime.
“Now I only wear my oxygen at night, along with my BiPap machine," she explained to PEOPLE. "I monitor my oxygen levels throughout the day and keep my machine on hand in case I need it.”
"I’m feeling great! I’m thankful to be alive, and it’s fun to be progressing as much as I am," added Slaton.
