Former "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" star June Shannon has declared a weight loss victory after years of unhealthy living. But has her quest for a slimmer figure set a bad example for her daughters?
Shannon first revealed she was on a weight loss journey in July 2014, shortly after her TLC series "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" was cancelled.
The reality star revealed to In Touch Magazine that she initially dropped about 120 pounds off her then-400-pound frame.
She said she lost the weight by drinking more water and eating baked foods and fruit.
"I've always taken pride in how I look," the reality star revealed to In Touch.
"I taught myself and my kids that you've got to be comfortable no matter what your size," she shared.
"I hadn't been drinking as much soda, just water, and stuff," said Shannon. "We've been eating a lot of chicken and baked foods. I also snack on grapes and cheese cubes throughout the day."
"I was doing really good with the doctor and we kind of celebrated with a French cruller from Dunkin' Donuts," Shannon said. "It was the hardest thing for me to give up!"
Recently, Shannon took her weight loss journey too far. She was hospitalized after fainting in her Georgia home.
Extra TV reported that the reality star passed out after walking down a flight of stairs at the home she shares with her daughters Lauryn, Alana, and Jessica.
Extra TV reported that after coming to, Shannon fainted several other times before her daughter Lauryn Shannon took her to the hospital.
TMZ reported that the former TLC star had been dieting in order to continue to shed pounds and did not eat that much on March 2, the day of her collapse.
Although she has set a good example through eating better and light exercise, by using a technique of not eating to lose weight, she has likely set a poor example for her daughters.
In January, the mother-of-four allowed cameras to capture when she underwent a "cool sculpting" treatment after becoming unhappy with what she called her "turkey neck."
June Shannon keeps fans updated on her weight loss journey on her official Facebook page.
