Mama June Shannon is focused on her weight loss goals and has been using tirzepatide, a medication similar to Mounjaro, for eight weeks. She has lost 30 pounds and is being very strict with her diet, despite her daughters being around baked goods. She is only losing four to five pounds a week and is going to the gym three or four times a week. Mama June has not experienced any typical side effects from the weight-loss medication and has 72.6 pounds left to lose to reach her goal weight of 170-180 pounds.
Mama June has a more realistic approach to weight loss this time and is trying new foods like cottage cheese to incorporate more protein into her diet. She wants to avoid going down to 130 pounds like she was in season 1 of From Not to Hot. The newest episodes of the show will document Mama June’s family as they deal with relationships, drama, and changing dynamics. They will also show the final days of Mama June’s late daughter, Anna “Chickadee” Cardwell, who passed away last year at the age of 29 due to complications from stage four adrenal carcinoma.
Mama June shared that they would not have filmed this journey unless Anna had been okay with it, as Anna loved being in front of the cameras. Even in her last days, Anna was joking with the cameras until the end. The show will continue to follow Mama June’s weight loss journey and her family’s experiences. Mama June’s daughters, Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson, Lauryn “Pumpkin” Efrid, and Jessica Shannon, have been supportive of her strict diet and weight loss efforts.
Despite the temptations of baked goods, Mama June has remained strict with her diet and is seeing progress in her weight loss journey. She is focused on reaching a healthier weight and lifestyle without going to extremes like in the past. The show will continue to showcase Mama June’s dedication to her health and the support she receives from her family during this time. Mama June is determined to reach her goal weight and maintain a healthy lifestyle moving forward.
