TLC aired 1000-lb Sisters season 4 episode 1, titled The Sweet and Sour Life, on Tuesday, January 17 at 9 pm ET.
In the premiere episode, fans learned that Tammy had another near-death experience and had to be put in a medically induced coma. She also had to get a trach in her neck just so she could breathe and was even septic at one point in time. Weighing almost 717 pounds, Tammy was afraid that she would not be able to breathe if something happened to the trach, and said that she did not know why "god saved her."
Meanwhile, Amy, who is currently pregnant, revealed that she would have to stop multiple times in the road due to medical issues. However, Tammy did not listen to Amy's reasoning and commented negatively on her clothes and hairstyle and slammed her decision to not support her sister.
Amanda and Chris also hoped for this to be Tammy's last straw and that she would not treat them as badly as she usually does, since she is now living in a hospital. Chris was also concerned about Tammy fighting with the nursing staff, much like her previous stay. Amanda also revealed that she was asked to sign a "do-not-resuscitate" for her little sister, which hurt her a lot.
1000-lb Sisters fans also hoped that this was Tammy's rock bottom and slammed her for not treating her family members well, who were in shock.
1000-lb Sisters fans don't believe that Tammy will make the required changes in her lifestyle
Tammy was previously seen vaping and drinking when she was clearly not supposed to do so. Chris was happy to hear Tammy confess that she wanted to make a change in her life but was doubtful that she would reach her goal weight, given that this was her second time on the ventilator.
1000-lb Sisters fans were happy to see Tammy behave properly with the nurses and even buy them flowers this time. However, they were doubtful of Tammy reaching her goal weight and felt that she was very lucky to recover from the near-death experience.
