Mama June’s DRASTIC Weight Loss Prompts Concern from Her Family!

Mama June: Family Crisis star Mama June Shannon is opening up about her weight loss journey, emphasizing transparency in her approach.

After recently disclosing her decision to use semaglutide to manage her weight, the 44-year-old revealed significant progress, shedding 30 pounds within two months of starting tirzepatide.

During a visit to Page Six’s studio accompanied by her daughters — Jessica “Chubbs” Shannon, Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efird, and Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, Mama June discussed her initial reservations about the treatment despite having undergone gastric sleeve surgery.

“I was against it because I had a gastric sleeve,” she explained. “But now, I’m in week nine and you can ask the girls — I am so super strict.”

Mama June’s candid update underscores her commitment to her health journey and highlights her ongoing efforts to achieve her weight loss goals.”

Mama June disclosed her adherence to a protein-packed diet and regular gym visits, stating, “I probably lost 30 pounds in like eight and a half weeks.”

However, the rapid weight loss has raised concerns for Lauryn about Shannon’s use of the drug.

“I just feel like every other time mom has lost weight so quickly, she’s gained it back, plus more each time. You know?” Lauryn expressed her concerns.

She continued, “She didn’t eat right, she didn’t go to the gym. She just was like, ‘f— it, I’ll get another surgery.'”

Shannon had previously documented her weight loss journey for fans across the first three seasons of their reality TV series, originally titled “Mama June: From Not to Hot.” The show was later rebranded as “Mama June: Family Crisis” for its fourth season.

The latest chapter in Mama June Shannon’s weight loss journey appears to be marked by a new level of commitment and transparency. Despite shedding 30 pounds within a relatively short timeframe, she has been candid about closely monitoring her routines and dietary choices.

“I literally shared that experience with TikTok and I told people like, ‘I gained a pound and I was so mad at myself,’ because I work hard in the gym, eating only protein. I don’t really like bread, carbs and all that, so I’m okay with not even eating that,” Shannon disclosed.

She elaborated, “I’m trying to get the 80 grams and 100 grams of protein, but when I did that last week, I gained a pound. So, now I gotta go back down to like 40 or 50 grams of protein versus what they say:100 grams. I can’t do it. I’m like, I put on weight.”

Despite setbacks, Shannon remains determined to navigate her weight loss journey with diligence and honesty.

A new season of Mama June: Family Crisis premiered on June 14, on WEtv, offering viewers further insight into Shannon’s ongoing efforts and personal challenges.
