Mama June's Health Update: A Candid Warning About Weight Loss Shots
MAMA JUNE SHANNON SPEARS THE TRUTH ABOUT WEIGHT LOSS DRUGS AND HER PERSONAL STRUGGLES
In a candid interview with TheScholarlyNote.com, Mama June Shannon opened up about her weight loss journey and her experiences with semaglutide injections. The 45-year-old reality TV star, who has been open about her struggles with weight gain in the past, revealed that she's been cautioning those interested in taking weight loss medications to proceed with extreme care.
June, who has lost a staggering 95 pounds since October, admitted that she quit using the shots in December. She emphasized the importance of thorough research and lifestyle changes when considering these types of treatments. "Don't make it a fix all, be all," she warned. "If you're not losing any weight, there's something behind you not losing any weight. You have to change your lifestyle."
The mother-of-four's candid confession comes after she successfully shed over 355 pounds following gastric sleeve surgery 10 years ago. However, June confessed that her previous weight loss journey was largely due to the surgical procedure rather than a complete overhaul of her habits.
"I was still eating sh*y," she admitted, "I've changed this time around." The candidness with which June spoke about her eating habits and lifestyle choices has left fans both inspired and concerned for her well-being.
June's weight loss journey has been a long and arduous one. Last April, the reality TV star revealed that she had gained over 100 pounds due to stress from caring for her late daughter Anna, who tragically passed away on December 10, 2023, following a battle with cancer.
As if dealing with the emotional aftermath of losing a child wasn't enough, June has been battling medical issues of her own. In a shocking revelation, she shared that she underwent a "total hysterectomy" just two months ago. While she's chosen to keep some of her health concerns private, she assured fans that the hysterectomy is the only medical issue she's publicly disclosed so far.
When asked about her sobriety journey, June enthusiastically shared that she's now five and a half years sober, having overcome her struggles with addiction in 2018. "I don't even think about who that person was," she gushed, emphasizing how far she's come since her dark days.
In related news, Mama June has been facing backlash from fans over her decision to continue appearing on reality TV despite her history of financial mismanagement. In a shocking revelation last year, it emerged that June had spent thousands of dollars of daughter Alana's money on personal expenses, including manicures and household bills.
When asked about the criticism she's received, June shrugged off the negativity with a characteristic blend of sass and confidence. "Watch the show, thank you for commenting, thank you for putting us on the algorithm, thank ya'll for your concerns," she quipped, making it clear that she won't be letting the haters get her down.
As fans eagerly await the next season of Mama June's reality TV show, one thing is certain: this strong-willed matriarch will continue to captivate audiences with her unapologetic honesty and unwavering resilience in the face of adversity.
