1000-lb Sisters season 4 aired episode 2 on Tuesday, January 24. This week, Amy and her husband Michael visited their doctor to find out the gender of their second baby. Amy's OB-GYN was concerned about Amy's health as she got pregnant very soon after her weight loss surgery and is now weighing 276 pounds - 106 pounds more than her goal weight.
The doctor said that Amy needed to be monitored closely as her binge-eating might cause high BP, which may lead to preeclampsia. This could cause fetal death, and she warned Amy that based on her eating habits, she might not even be there to take care of her elder son Gage.
Amy was disappointed after finding out that she was having another son and told viewers that she was not paying attention to her weight during the pregnancy. She also shocked the doctor by eating crackers in the clinic and justified it by saying that it was better than sugar.
Amy did not disclose her entire diet to the doctor but did comment about eating cheese sticks as a healthy snack. Later on, she was seen eating peaches in front of her son because she wanted to be a good role model for him.
1000-lb Sisters fans did not believe that Amy would make the required changes in her lifestyle as she was warned about the same in her last pregnancy and did not do anything.

TLC's description of the episode, titled The Sweet and Sour Life, read:
"Having survived yet another brush with death, Tammy recovers at rehab, but a new scare threatens her life. The family adjusts to life without Tammy, and Amy's big surprise stuns everyone."
Last week on 1000-lb Sisters, Tammy's family relatives were concerned about her health as she was in a medically induced coma for a week. Tammy revealed that she did not remember being admitted to the hospital but had some memories of her listening to her mother while in a coma.
She felt that it was her last brush with death and could not figure out why god saved her. Tammy decided to lose some weight and took the doctor's advice to have weight loss surgery. Amanda said that she had to write a 'do-not-resuscitate' order for her younger sister, which broke her. Chris was happy to see Tammy treating the nurses well, unlike the last time, and hoped that she would indeed change her ways.
Amy told viewers that she was pregnant for the second time and refused to visit Tammy in the hospital, saying that she was afraid she might throw up during the journey. She also asked her husband to buy a lot of snacks from a convenience store, refusing to eat less because of her pregnancy.
Amy also changed her hair color to blue at the request of her son.
