Tammy’s past relationship

In a recent episode, Tammy’s sister, Amy Slaton, expressed concern about Tammy’s relationship with Phillip.

“I’m trying to motivate Tammy, because I do have my worries about Phillip, the new boyfriend,” Amy said. “He loves big women, but she needs to lose this weight.”

But Amy didn’t need to worry for long as Phillip and Tammy broke up pretty quickly.

“We broke up,” Tammy told her sister. “I guess you could say I did it, cause I was tired of fighting with him and he said my insecurities were my problem. And, like, at the beginning of the relationship I told him, I was like, can you promise you’ll help me through my insecurities. He said it got to be too much.”

“I’m very quick to trust, and that’s one of my downfalls,” she continued. “So in the long run, I do end up getting hurt real hard, real bad.” 

“Him saying you’re insecure and stuff, maybe that needs to be the motivation to be, like, getting your inner demons worked on,” Amy said.

“Yeah, your inner food addiction, and your insecurities,” Amy elaborated. “Now with your Dr. Smith appointment coming up you’ve got to show some real progress, so you need to do this like, every day. Even when I’m not around.” 

Tammy’s relationships have had negative affects

In the past, both of Tammy’s relationships have had negative effects on her weight loss. Her relationship with Sykes was unhealthy as her family believed that he was feeding her unhealthy food to make her gain weight. Her family worried about her relationship with Philllip as well, because he often posted on social media about how he only liked women who were over 300 pounds.
