Exclusive: ‘1000-Lb Sisters’ Stars Amy and Tammy Slaton Reveal Their Diet Tips – inTouch Weekly

Making progress! New TLC stars Amy Slaton and Tammy Slaton are just embarking on their weight loss journeys on TLCs newest reality TV series, 1,000 Lb Sisters. Before they can qualify for weight loss surgery, Dr. Charles Procter Jr. asked that they both lose some weight on their own with the help of a dietician. In an exclusive interview with In Touch, Amy and Tammy opened up about their new diet and revealed some of the tips they use to help keep themselves on track.

The food part is okay. The sodas were really hard. But I ended up doing it and I havent had a soda in what, four months now? I havent even thought about sodas really. Well, every now and again, Ill crave one. But mostly, Ill just drink water and coffee, Amy, 31, exclusively told In Touch.

For me, it was giving up the soda too, and the fried foods. I mean, Im still having trouble giving up soda and fried foods, but I think Im doing a lot better than what I used to do, Tammy, 32, added.

When Amy and Tammy met with their dietician, Taylor, she asked the sisters what types of foods they normally like to eat and they listed off a variety of them. In her confessional, Taylor revealed her thoughts on what they might need to do in order to help them reach their weight loss goals which included cutting back from eight to 12 cans of diet soda a day to at least just one can a day.

What Im hearing is too many calories, too much carbs, too much fat. Just too much food overall and so we are going to have a lot of work to do, Taylor said.

But even if Amy and Tammy may still struggle from time to time, they are still making progress in their weight loss journey and theyve also learned tips on how to swap out some of the not-so-healthy foods they crave for a healthier or lower-calorie option.

Well instead of like, macaroni and cheese, well have cauliflower macaroni and cheese, or instead of the [mashed potatoes], well have cauliflower potatoes. So you can find an alternative that is healthy. Like, if were craving a candy bar, well get a protein bar, or if we want a milkshake, well drink a protein shake. If we wanted a Reeses Cup, well get the sugar-free Reeses Cups, Tammy explained. So were still complying to the diet, but yet were still having that chocolate fix or the fix that we needed at the time, the craving but just doing it at a healthier alternative.

Sounds doable! Fans can continue to follow along on Amy and Tammys weight loss journeys on 1,000-Lb Sisters which airs on TLC Wednesdays at 10 p.m. ET.
