The reality TV show "Mama June: From Not to Hot" will be documenting Mama June's incredible weight loss journey as she undergoes various procedures to get her body in shape. The Sun reported that she will be losing about 150 pounds throughout the show's entire run.
The first episode featured the life-altering gastric sleeve surgery that she went through back in May 2015. Her daughter Lauryn "Pumpkin" Shannon revealed in an in interview with Entertainment Tonight that this was the procedure that kickstarted Mama June's dramatic weight loss.
"The reason she got the gastric sleeve was because she hit a plateau — she couldn't lose any weight," Pumpkin said. "And then it came to a point where [the trainer] had to step in because she hit another plateau with the gastric sleeve, and wasn't losing any more weight," she added.
The second episode featured Mama June undergoing a special fat freezing procedure to get rid of her turkey neck, which her kids had often poked fun at. She would later be undergoing another surgery to remove the excess skin on her stomach, and then another to get her breasts from "a 44 long to 36 up."
Mama June remains in hiding until the show officially reveals her new look.
"Mama June: From Not to Hot" airs every Friday at 10 p.m. EST on WE tv.
