We have to admit, we don’t really watch We TV’s ‘Mama June: From Not to Hot,’ but we were curious about Mama June’s body transformation.
Thanks to her big reveal in People, we don’t actually have to watch the show to see the new Mama June.
Take a look:
As viewers of Friday’s episode of WE tv’s Mama June: From Not to Hot know, the change was so drastic, even her own children barely recognized her. “She looks great,” says daughter Alana “Honey Boo Boo” Thompson. “I’m really proud of her.”
During the episode, Thompson remarked that her mother “looked like Marilyn Monroe.”
“I’ve worked my ass off, working out getting healthy,” Mama June said during the finale. “And now I feel like becoming the person on the outside that I always felt like on the inside.”
Shannon, 37, will share the details of exactly how she went from a size 18 to a size 4 in the next issue of PEOPLE, plus what is was like going under the knife to remove skin from her neck, arms, back and stomach. Shannon also underwent breast augmentation surgery and got a new set of veneers.
Every step of Shannon’s transformation journey has been documented, including the dramatic day she nearly threw in the towel after post-op pain became too much to handle.
Her daughters Alana and Lauryn “Pumpkin” Shannon helped get her back on track and now the process is finally over.
If you care to watch, the Mama June: From Not to Hot finale airs April 7 at 9 p.m. ET on WE tv.
