Mame June Reveals If She'll Use Ozempic, Addresses Gaining Weight & Her Body Transformation

Mama June Shannon is speaking out about her body and the controversial diet trend that’s sweeping Hollywood.

The 43-year-old Here Comes Honey Boo Boo star lost approximately 300 pounds several years ago. However, she said that she’s since gained some of that back.

During a recent interview, she addressed her weight gain and revealed if she would consider using Ozempic like some other stars.

Mama June told the Daily Mail that Ozempic was not for her.

“I don’t want to try Ozempic because, honestly, I’ve heard about so many bad side effects,” she explained.

The celebrity also pointed out that the drug’s actual purpose isn’t for weight loss: “It is using a drug that isn’t really prescribed to do that. They’re using a diabetic drug to take care of weight loss.”

“No offense to people out there that are doing it, but it’s just not for me. I want to stay clean. I’m not judging anyone but it’s not for me,” she added. If you were unaware, Mama June has struggled with addiction in the past.

She also opened up about if her sobriety has effected her weight at all, saying that she didn’t think the two were related.

“I’ve only put on back on 100 pounds and I was actually putting back on that weight before I got sober. I’ve literally been at 241 pounds for almost two years, God pretty much wants me where I’m at right now,” she said. “Eventually in your weight loss journey, you hit a sort of plateau and I’ve plateaued at 241. I don’t drink soda, I don’t drink tea, I don’t snack like I used to and all that. I don’t move on the scale now, front or back.”

With the overwhelming popularity of Ozempic, several stars have admitted to using the drug while others have made it clear that they did not.
