‘1000-Lb Sisters’ Amy Slaton, 36, Flaunts 176-Lb Weight Loss in Strapless Black Dress amid Heartbreak

The reality TV star’s caption—reflective of a mix of vulnerability and celebration—read, “Serving body baby with dash of low self esteem but we doing the […] thing!!!” This update comes amidst a challenging period in Amy’s life, as she navigates the waters of heartbreak.

Messages from her fans in the TikTok comment section were overwhelmingly supportive. Amid expressions of admiration for her transformation, fans offered words of encouragement regarding her recent breakup, believed to involve her latest boyfriend, Kevin. One admirer exclaimed, “YESSSSSS QUEEN,” to which Amy gratefully responded, “Thank you all 💙💙💙 I love yall it been ruff few days […] Not crying over his loser […].”

Far from being evasive about the relationship woes she is facing, Amy didn’t shy away from shedding light on the unsavory motivations of her ex, firmly stating, “He just wanted fame.” Fans continued to show their support with comments like “You don’t need no man, Amy, you are a boss ❤️” and “He was very unwell. You are an amazing [and] incredible woman!!” to which Amy simply replied, “Fact.”

She also humorously adopted a new motto in her journey of self-discovery with the phrase, “Toy before boy is my new goal lol,” which she shared in the comment section. On the other hand, other people couldn’t help but compliment her appearance with praises ranging from “So gorgeous, Amy! That dress looks sooo beautiful on you!!!” to “Baby, I see you doing your big ones, keep inspiring the world 💚💚💚.”

Amy’s relationship issues with Kevin come after she posted a late Valentine’s Day tribute to him just over a week ago. The dedication video featured three custom-made “Love Wheels”—a playful nod to Hot Wheels—each with a significant snapshot: one of Amy and Kevin, marking the anniversary of their first date, and one each for her sons, Gage and Glenn Halterman.

However, just a few months prior to posting the aforementioned video, Amy shared a compilation of photos with a different man named Tony Rodgers, whom she was said to have been dating after her marriage ended. This TikTok video depicted their shared moments, from intimate couple photos to familial scenes with Amy’s sons.

Before her recent romantic escapades, Amy Slaton was married to Michael Halterman, who is the father of Gage and Glenn. Their union—which began in high school—ended in a split less than a year after welcoming their second child. The end of her marriage to Michael marked a pivotal point in Amy’s life, setting the stage for her subsequent relationships and personal growth.

Amidst these public reflections on love and loss, Amy’s journey of self-improvement and mental health has been a beacon for many. In an exclusive interview with a media outlet that took place in December 2023, Amy shared her commitment to prioritizing mental health and parenting over weight loss, following her significant 176-pound loss since her surgery in 2019.

This decision came in the wake of her split from Michael and was further influenced by her diagnosis of bipolar disorder. It was during this interview that Amy emphasized the importance of having a supportive environment for her family’s growth and happiness, a lesson learned through the challenges of her past relationship.

Drawing back to her most recent revelations, in the days leading up to her latest weight loss reveal, Amy shared profound reflections on her emotional resilience. With stark honesty, she posted statements that read, “Life is already hard. I don’t want to be around anyone who makes it worse” and “People think that because I keep going, I don’t hurt. Let me be very clear… I hurt AND I keep going!”

Amy’s story is a powerful testament to the journey of overcoming personal trials with grace and strength. Her narrative—woven through moments of joy, pain, and triumph—continues to inspire and resonate with many fans, serving as a reminder of the transformative power of resilience, self-love, and the support of a compassionate community.
