1000-lb Sisters star Amy Slaton has opened up about her "emotional" weight loss journey and shared her secrets to slimming down.
The 35-year-old reality star has impressed viewers with her desire to lose weight, though some fans became concerned that Amy hit some bumps in the road while pregnant with her second child.
The TV personality shares two sons with her husband Michael Halterman — Gage, two, and Glenn, seven months.
However, she's now insisted that she is getting "back on track" with her weight loss after hearing concerns from her doctor.
Speaking about her journey in a new interview, Amy said: "I don't have a favourite [workout] routine. As far as eating habits go, I eat small meals with high protein and low carbs."

"She’s doing a disservice to Gage by cutting her own life short," another viewer blasted.

Another wrote: "She’s a food addict. It’s horrible. Addicts are not voluntarily choosing their addiction over their loved ones or their own lives."
However, it seems as though Amy has listened to the concerns of fans and her doctors.
Speaking to cameras on her reality show, she admitted: "I have to get back on track with my weight loss. You’re about to see a whole new Amy."
