It’s official, there’s nothing you can do to win with people on the internet.
“1000-Lb. Sisters” start Tammy Slaton is finally taking accountability, cleaning up her attitude, losing weight and getting healthy.
But the trolls of the internet aren’t taking a single day off, and they’re still coming for her.
On May 22, Tammy posted a series of images of herself that look innocent enough.
In them, she’s serious mugging for the camera, with an oxygen cannula.

At first glance, they look like normal pics – albeit likely filtered. Although, who doesn’t use filters these days?
But apparently the use of filters set off a number of fans, who blasted her for not depicting her “real” face on social media.
One fan wrote, “These filters are extremely unrealistic,” another writing, “Photoshopped and filtered, NOT FAIR!”
One simply responded with a chicken emoji, suggesting that Tammy is too “chicken” to show her face without a filter.
Others wrote, “Your looking great Tammy but that filter makes your face look like a munchkin!” and, “Filters!!!! Stoppppp.” Another fan was at least a little nicer about it, saying, “I wish queen Tammy would give up filters, they don’t show the true you.”
Last weekend, Tammy posted another series of pics.
This time, she seemed to address the critics, captioning the series, “6 beautiful photos of myself without filters.”
But it didn’t satisfy the trolls, and fans again flooded her comments with critical responses.

One wrote, “Good for you👏👏 But you still have a filter on. My 17 yr daughter and Myself have been fans since the beginning. So happy for you Tammy. Maybe you can be more kind to your loved ones, that walked this journey with you. Be well.”
Another critic added, “You mean this time you have used soft filter. Whom are you kidding child??????”
But Tammy apparently stopped trying to appease the unappeasable masses in the newest series of photos.
Tammy posted another series of pics early Thursday, these obviously heavily filtered.
And of course, the trolls leapt at a chance to call her out.
One commenter sneered, “Do u claim these are unfiltered too?😂😂”
Another said, “Right back to using filters. Noooooo………”

And one fan apparently had enough, writing the star off altogether; “I just unfollowed !! TIRED OF PHOTO SHOT PICTURES. ALWAYS THE SAME. SHE CAN’T SPEAK???”
And the criticism marched on and on.
However, it wasn’t all bad – some people showed up to support Tammy.
One fan wrote, “You look great but the biggest change i see so far is your not such a b—h and no more nasty hurt fill un called for all out disrespect to the people who have bent over backwards to help you And never a thank you for what has been done for and taking responsibility for the things that are all you but tried to blame others for every that is you nobody else but you .. keep up the good work.”
Others called her “queen” or said she was “beautiful,” praising her for her hard work in getting healthier.
It’s clear that no matter what Tammy does, she’ll get hate – so she might as well do “her.”
