The Secret Behind Mama June’s Motivation

On Friday's episode of Mama June: From Not to Hot, June went under the knife for her life-changing gastric bypass surgery. June struggled with her new liquid diet and thought that she figured out how to work the system by driving instead of walking to meet her daily step count. But, June wasn't able to fool her coach who decided it was time to bring in the big guns. Literally!

Next week, see if Mama June can handle the heat that celeb trainer Kenya Crooks brings! In the meantime, here are a few ways that YOU can learn from June and motivate yourself this week.

Cut out anything that holds you back.

June took extreme measures and cut out a large portion of her stomach, but you can take smaller steps. Maybe it's time to cut out your daily latte runs. Or maybe you need to cut a toxic person out of your life. Whatever it is, if it's holding you back, let it go!

Start your day off on a healthy note.

After surgery, June was restricted to a liquid-only diet which means tons of water! Starting each morning with a glass of water and healthy foods will leave you feeling energized and ready to take on the day.

Seek out a professional.

June is working with celebrity trainer Kenya Crooks in order to reach her weight loss goal. If you're trying to lose weight, see if your gym offers some trial sessions with a personal trainer. If you're trying to make lifestyle changes, consider a wellness coach or yoga classes.
