What did Tami say about her weight loss?

Following the criticism, Roman addressed it publicly in a statement on Instagram.

"I didn’t lose weight, I lost my willingness to die. DIABETES IS NO JOKE!" the star wrote.

"I Detox, suppress my appetite and make better food choices. So enjoy yourself laughing, leaving negative comments & calling me a “crackhead”...but I have two beautiful daughters and I’m gon’ live for them by ANY means necessary. 💯."

Roman also addressed her weight loss during a 2018 episode of Basketball Wives, telling Jackie Christie that the weight loss was because of her diabetes, not for her looks.

"I'm a diabetic, okay? So for me my weight is very serious. I finally decided to take charge of my f***ing life so that I can live for my kids and my man, and so because of that I lose weight. I'm 48 years old. You know what I'm saying? So this is how my body reacts to me making proper choices with my diet," she said on the show.

Roman has two children, Lyric, 27, and Jazz, with her ex-husband Kenny Anderson.
