Alana Thompson (Honey Boo Boo)

Alana Thompson is a reality star who skyrocketed to stardom for her involvement in the reality television series Toddlers & Tiaras with her mother, June Shannon. Also called by her nickname “Honey Boo Boo,” Alana has captivated the hearts of audiences because of her bubbly and outgoing personality. She was so well-loved by the people that she eventually started her own show called Here Comes Honey Boo Boo, which featured Alana’s siblings, Anna, Jessica, and Lauryn, and other extended family members.

What most people don’t know, however, is that Alana also struggled with being overweight since she was a child. Today, however, the former child star is a completely different person. Alana said in an Instagram post that she is currently following a fitness program that enabled her to lose some weight. Her legions of fans were quick to notice, and it melts our hearts to see their wonderful comments. One follower said they will always have their back and will support her all the way. She is truly an inspiring girl, and we’re proud she didn’t have to obtain a personal loan for fancy weight surgeries.
