“I mean, I barely eat anyways. I was surprised when I actually gained that much weight.” Shannon claims she plans on just boiling eggs for breakfast and adding a P3 protein pack to her morning ritual.
Well, not really morning. June reveals she rarely gets up to start her day until noon.” So, I’m more of a snacker instead of a full-meal kind of person.”
COVID and quarantine to blame for June Shannon weight gain
Shannon blames her weight gain on quarantine and Covid. It was a stressful and uncertain time. She adds that getting outside to walk on the South Florida beach for exercise is trying even now.
“Honestly, because we’re in South Florida, they’re starting to shut stuff down and they’ve been restrictive. It just pretty much is being able to walk on the beach or kind of just do my own thing because it is hard,” the reality star tells In Touch. “They’re [stricter] down here, especially with the [coronavirus] numbers starting to go up again.”
June Shannon also reveals she is partners with Boom Bod weight loss shot drinks. She claims that with her huge sweet tooth the shots help curb her cravings.
