Sitting in a chair and looking into the camera lens, Tammy wore some black trousers and an olive green top.
“I take a lot of pictures, a lot of selfies,” Tammy said in the moving video, adding, “and I do, not because I think I look good—well, I do, a little bit.

BAD HABITS
Continuing her candid chat, she spoke about how it would be easy to fall back into her previous habits but noted how she’s determined to stay on the right track.
“It’d be so easy to fall back into bad habits and gain all the weight back,” she admitted.
“Then was this all for? Wasted time, wasted money, wasted effort—waste.”
Giving advice to her followers, Tammy then signed off by saying, “You’re not alone. You can do anything once you put your mind into it. Never give up.”
