In an interview with People magazine, her trainer, Kenya Crooks, shared a few of Mama June's healthy eating strategies—and they're pretty smart.

Mama June says that she had already cut out soda and downing fistfuls of cheese balls, but now that the reality star has dropped 300 lbs from dieting, exercise, and excess skin removal surgery.

She says she went “cold turkey,” giving up her usual three to four Mountain Dew Code Reds a day after she was in car accident and was told by a neurologist that she needed to stop drinking cola.

She told People now:

“I know myself — I’m never going to go back to what I was before, It’s all about maintaining. I’m kind of obsessed with the scale, and beating myself up even if I gain a few ounces or a pound.”

Her trainer Kenya suggested trying out fruit-infused water instead.

“For people who don’t like to drink water by itself, what we’ve done is we’ve thrown some strawberries and kiwi in there,” Kenya says. “It’s really good, and it helps you get it down a whole lot faster.”

Mama June drinks Propel flavored waters when she’s busy. “Propel has great flavors like Grape and Wild Cherry and Kiwi Strawberry,” she says “Honestly, to me, they taste like soda. If I drink soda right now, it would taste like crap.”

One of the biggest changes Mama June underwent was what she was consuming on a regular basis and how to swap out the junk food for healthier alternatives.
