In a preview for the new season, Tammy met up with Dr. Eric Smith to go over her health and progress. Dr. Smith congratulated his patient and expressed excitement that Tammy no longer required her wheelchair.

“At my rock bottom, I was weighing about 725 lbs,” the TLC star revealed in a confessional. “The last time I saw Dr. Smith was about nine months ago and I was around 420 lbs. He told me I had to lose 100 lbs. before my next appointment. I’m extremely nervous.”

Tammy knew she needed to weigh in at about 320 lbs in order to move to the next step. Much to everyone’s surprise, the scale read 303.8 lbs.

Dr. Smith had just one word — “unbelievable.”
