From over 700, that's a huge drop." The star couldn't be happier and added, "I'm feeling thrilled, proud, excited — just all the emotions. I proved everybody wrong.

"I mean, b—s this is about me at the end of the day because I'm the queen." Slaton was overcome with emotion as she watched her family support her. She admitted that she "needed to know that they love me no matter what" ahead of the procedure. "I needed to know that they're here for me. They love me. That's one of the biggest things to help push me through to get to where I am now."
