MAMA JUNE: DIET, EXERCISE & GASTRIC SLEEVE SURGERY

Born in 1979, June Edith “Mama June” Shannon is the matriarch of the Shannon Family, who rose to fame in 2011. She’s the mother of Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, who became part of TLC’s Toddlers & Tiaras.

Thanks to a lifestyle overhaul, Mama June managed to lose a staggering 300 pounds. However, to reach this target, she had to undergo gastric sleeve surgery to make her stomach smaller. Well, that might have come with the right medical insurance to make sure that she would be safe.
Aside from the said procedure, she also followed a strict diet and exercise regularly to maintain her new petite body. This overhaul does not only help Mama June to be healthy but also made a name in Hollywood. She can now be seen here and there, making appearances on the small screen. Also, she is now often in the headlines because of her weight loss.
