Mama June Shannons daughters are giving away new secrets about the reality stars new weight lossand highly anticipated show, Mama June: From Not to Hot.
In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Alana Honey Boo Boo Thompson, 11, and Lauryn Pumpkin Thompson, 17 sat down to discuss their mothers biggest transformation yet and how she got there.
She had gastric sleeve back in May of 2015, and then she slowly started losing weight, and the reason she got the gastric sleeve was because she hit a plateau she couldnt lose any weight, Pumpkin told ETs Jennifer Peros. And then it came to a point where [the trainer] had to step in because she hit another plateau with the gastric sleeve, and wasnt losing any more weight.

Her stomach started looking gross, Pumpkin continued. It was hanging from where she lost so much weight, and her arms and her chin, so she got [the skin on] her stomach removed.
According to her daughters, Mama June also underwent breast surgery.
She got her boobies done, Pumpkin added. She got them from a 44 long to 36 up.

As fans know, the reality star mother of four weighed 365 pounds when she started filming TLCs Here Comes Honey Boo Boo in 2012. The following year, in 2013, Shannon claimed to have lost 100 pounds. However, shortly after this photo was taken at the 24th Annual GLAAD Awards, she gained most of the weight back!
And now that shes finally shed the extra pounds, Pumpkin revealed that Mama June still sees herself as vastly overweight.
I think that her biggest thing [she has to] overcome is that fact that she still thinks of herself as a bigger person, because, even to this day, like, a couple of days ago we had a conversation, and. . .she looked in the mirror and was like, Im still fat,' Pumpkin said. And I guess because shes seen herself as a bigger person all these years, she doesnt realize how small she is.
