Excitement Builds for 1000-lb Sisters Season 7 Premiere
Amanda Halterman has just shared the thrilling news that 1000-lb Sisters season 7 is set to debut on April 15. While the focus has primarily been on sisters Amy Slaton, 37, and Tammy Slaton, 38, many fans, including myself, are eager to see more of Amanda, who is 44 years old. Since her introduction in season 4, Amanda has proven to be a captivating and entertaining presence on the show.
The previous season wrapped up only a few months ago, making the quick turnaround for the new season a delightful surprise. It was during Amanda’s announcement on social media that I first learned about the premiere date, and anticipation for the upcoming episodes is building immensely, especially regarding Amanda’s on-screen presence.
Amanda’s Ongoing Health Challenges
Awaiting Diagnosis & Treatment

As we gear up for season 7, Amanda is also navigating through significant personal challenges, particularly her recent health scare. In a heartfelt Instagram update, Amanda shared her experience of being admitted to the hospital after fainting in her living room. This unsought emergency required her to spend three days in medical care.
“For now we wait for a diagnosis and treatment plan,”she shared in her post.
The upcoming season may provide much-needed distraction for Amanda as she copes with these health issues. A deeper focus on her journey would offer viewers valuable perspective on her struggles.
Frequent Visits to Medical Facilities
A Series of Surgeries
Amanda has been frequently visiting medical settings, which include her two bariatric surgeries and a knee surgery featured in season 6. The recovery period from these procedures has presented challenges for her weight-loss journey; following her second surgery, she only managed to shed 31 pounds compared to the rapid results she experienced after her first operation. Back in January, she shared a compelling before-and-after photo on her Instagram reflecting her transformation post-surgery.
