Slaton went on to say that posting photos is a way for her to “show off my hard work.”

“Seriously? Like, I don’t get it. I am proud of myself,” Tammy — who has been sharingher weight-loss journeysince undergoing bariatric surgery in 2022 — said.

“So what? I use a filter.”

She went on to explain why she uses a filter to edit her selfies. “I don’t like the colorization in my cheeks. All the spots from the sun and the freckles,” Tammy said, pointing to her cheeks.

Tammy doesn’talwaysuse filters, though; In May, she posted"six beautiful photos of myself without filters"— or an oxygen tube, followingher dramatic weight loss.

But as Tammy pointed out in her most recentReel, she’s taking a page fromTaylor Swift’s book when it comes to the haters: She’s just going to Shake It Off.

The reality star shared a video of herself singing along to Swift’s 2014 hit — loudly singing the line “Haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate” — from “Shake It Off” before laughing.

It’s been an emotional time for the reality star, whosehusbandCaleb Willingham, died earlier this summer at age 40.
