I believe there are several mistakes being made in 1000-lb Sisters that I feel are affecting its entertainment value. 1000-lb Sisters premiered in 2020 on TLC and quickly became a hit among fans. Originally, the show followed sisters Tammy and Amy Slaton, who collectively weighed over 1000 lbs at that time. The quirky rural Kentucky natives were known for their funny mispronunciations, comical demeanors, and sometimes volatile dynamics. The sisters were looking to improve their lives with bariatric surgery, and they were both seeing a surgeon out of Atlanta, Georgia.
