As Tammy continued to gain weight, topping out at just over 600 pounds, Amy had to take care of her siblings’ every little need. Even simple chores like getting food and making sure she took her medication were placed on Amy’s shoulders and became almost too much to bear. Last season, Amy Slaton became pregnant and later gave birth to her son Gage, who is now a year old. Since becoming a mother, Amy has now had to cope with the extra burden of not only adjusting to life with a newborn, but also caring for her own Tammy, who has been waiting for help. Amy is increasingly frustrated with Tammy as it is clear how little work she has done to lose weight, despite the very real risks to her health.

In the first episode of season three, Amy Slaton reveals the big news about Tammy. The 37-year-old reality star gushes with excitement as she stresses what a big deal this is for her sister.
