Mama June Shannon has dramatically changed from her early days in reality TV stardom. Over the years, she managed to lose weight and get into better shape. However, Mama June’s battle with addiction also negatively impacted her health.

Although June Shannon is interested in health and weight loss, many believe she’s losing too much too fast.

Mama June Shannon’s Daughter Agreed She’s Being Too Hard On Herself

In a June article, Entertainment Tonight revealed Mama June uses weight loss drugs to maintain her weight loss goals. She lost 30 lbs in nine weeks, which averages to be a little more than three pounds a week. In the interview, Mama June’s daughter Pumpkin said she thought her mother was overdoing it.

“Mama’s thing is like, when she’s really strict on herself, she’s really strict on herself,” Pumpkin confessed.

But according to the family matriarch, she’s also exercising. She told ET that she works out “three to four times a week” and engages in healthier eating habits.

“Even though I’m losing weight, I’m only about three to four pounds a week,” June Shannon shared. “It isn’t as fast as a gastric sleeve or a gastric bypass, but it is doing it, like, more safer.”

On Instagram, the reality star shared she was on Semaglutide, which is the generic name for Ozempic.

Is The WEtv Star Losing Weight At A Safe Rate?

Although plenty of celebrities use Ozepmic to lose weight, Mama June’s fans remain concerned. Collider points out that the reality star has previously engaged in dangerous weight loss practices to achieve her goals.

The article cites instances when June would skip meals and frequently check her weight on the scale. But that’s not where it stopped.

“… She has spent more than $75,000 on procedures such as her gastric sleeve surgery, breast augmentation, and skin removal surgery on what she has referred to as her ‘turkey neck,’ ‘bat wings,’ and stomach — removing a total of 9lbs of skin,” Collider writes.

And this is what is public knowledge. It’s entirely possible that June Shannon is also engaging in harmful behaviors that she wants to keep under wraps. As the family continues to mourn Anna, her fans hope she will make healthier decisions for both her physical and mental health.
