‘1000-Lb. Sisters’ Season 4 shows Amy Slaton in extreme pain
1000-Lb. Sisters Season 4 Episode 4 featured Amy Slaton telling the cameras about her extreme pain. “Hey ya’ll, it’s Amy,” she told the camera while sitting in the passenger seat of her car. “I really can’t talk right now. I’m in a lot of pain. I’m unable to move. It hurts so bad I can barely stand the pain. It’s like a stabbing pain in my lower back and kind of a burning pain on my stomach. I can’t keep nothing down.”
Amy then explained that she didn’t know if the pain was related to her second child, as she was just a month away from her due date. “We are kind of close to having the baby.”
Amy’s husband, Michael Halterman, drove Amy to the emergency room. “I just wanna take her to the ER to get her checked out and all that,” he said. “I’m worried a little bit about the baby in her. She could be having the baby.”
She explained she had a ‘moment of weakness’ regarding pizza

“My gallbladder is fine, my liver is fine,” Amy said after she came home from the hospital. “It’s just really bad indigestion.”
Amy then explained to the cameras that she was trying to stay healthy for the baby, but she still eats what she wants from time to time. “I’ve been trying to eat healthy because of the baby,” she said. “But, sometimes you just have a moment of weakness and you have to do what you want. If you want a f***ing cupcake, eat a f***ing cupcake. I had a moment of weakness and I ate some pizza. I’m never going to eat that pizza again.”
Amy and Tammy Slaton’s sisters told Tammy what happened to Amy.
“She ate some pizza,” Amanda Halterman explained. “She said it was good and then the next thing I know, she went on to the hospital to make sure her and the baby were alright. And come to find out, she had indigestion.” Tammy rolled her eyes at the news.
