montage of Winter Everett with two different hairstyles form the family chantel

The Family Chantel cast member Winter Everett is turning heads for her weight-loss makeover after recently revealing she’s lost over 150 pounds. Chantel Everett’s younger sister, Winter, was never the star of the show. She faced insecurity due to her body weight, and it reflected in the poor choices Winter made, especially in her relationship with her former boyfriend, Jah. Winter tried various methods to lose weight but settled down on bariatric surgery after being inspired by “Weight Loss Barbie” on TikTok to have bariatric surgery in Tijuana, Mexico.

Winter fulfilled her dream of becoming a plus-size model after her weight loss. Winter never wanted a skinny look with her weight loss. She still wanted to look like herself but also look fitter and healthy. Winter was last seen in The Family Chantel season 5 when her sister was coming to terms with Pedro Jimeno divorcing her unexpectedly. Some fans think that Winter now deserves her own spin-off since Chantel’s relationship is done for good and Winter has entered a new phase of her life.

Chantel wanted to give her sister a shoutout and let her know that she was incredibly proud for making the decision to go through with the bariatric surgery and working so hard in the gym every day “Your strength, determination, and commitment to this journey inspire me and everyone around you,” Chantel added.

“Keep pushing—you’ve got this!”
