Tammy, 36, got up out of her wheelchair to pose with the fan while eating at a restaurant.
The TV star – who recently lost 300 pounds – displayed her slimmer frame in a blue dress and gray cardigan.
Fans went wild over her progress in the comments of the snap, with one writing: “Standing unassisted!”
Another added, “I’m blown away at how far she’s come,” and a third posted: “NO WAY!”
Tammy has lost 300 pounds since undergoing life-saving bariatric surgery.
Bariatric surgery is an operation on the digestive system to help a patient lose weight quickly in extreme situations.
Last month, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that she has gone from weighing 717 pounds to just over 400 pounds.
The TLC star has lost over 300 pounds, and she’s nearly half the size she was when she entered rehab in Ohio.
After her major surgery, it took a few months for Tammy to leave the rehab center, but she finally came home last month after she got her trach out in December.
The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that Tammy returned to Kentucky after abstaining from drinking alcohol, smoking, and vaping for nine months and being in the facility for a total of 14 months.
Weight loss wasn’t the only thing on Tammy’s mind while in rehab – she also found herself a husband.
WHIRLWIND MARRIAGE
His name is Caleb Willingham, and he was living in the same facility as Tammy.
The couple got married in November 2022 after getting engaged one month earlier.
An insider close to Tammy said: “She began dating Caleb in rehab, and I’m so happy they met in person and were not dating online.”
Tammy announced her marriage to her fans with a video.
Some fans were less than impressed with Caleb in the new season, however, claiming he comes across as “creepy.”
Viewers felt disturbed after Caleb admitted to “stalking” Tammy on social media.
FAN BACKLASH
During this week’s episode, it was revealed that Caleb and Tammy got talking online and met at the same weight loss facility.
Tammy’s friend Daniel said: “Wait, you looked at her social media and then you came here.
“What do they all that? Stalker vibes.”
Caleb replied: “I don’t stalk, I do research.”
Tammy seemed unbothered by his admission, saying in a confessional: “I think he just flirted with me.
“Might be a tad bit stalker-ish. But I ain’t mad at him.”
Viewers claimed he was coming on “way too strong” and seemed “controlling.”
