Winter Everett from The Family Chantel has received much praise for her dramatic weight loss transformation, and the upcoming season will reveal new details about her weight loss surgery. The younger sister of 90 Day Fiancé star Chantel Jimeno has slimmed down considerably over the past year. While Winter has lost weight due to eating healthy and working out, The Family Chantel star also turned to weight loss surgery to get a slimmer frame.

While Chantel has always been the glamorous star in her family, her younger sister Winter is well-received by franchise fans. The Atlanta beauty is known for her soft demeanor and easygoing personality, though Winter has struggled with being outshined by her older sister. Winter dealt primarily with heartbreak during The Family Chantel season 3, as her relationship with her long-term boyfriend Jah ended. She will be seeking love with someone new in season 4, although Winter’s weight loss surgery will also be featured.

Winter's weight loss procedure might be successful, as evidenced by her Instagram account, but The Family Chantel star Chantel expressed her worries for her sister in the season trailer. “Winter’s having gastric sleeve. They’re taking out 75% of her stomach. It’s scary, cause this is my little sister," Chantel said. While The Family Chantel season 4 will focus on Winter's surgery and how it led to her weight loss, fans of Winter have also witnessed her lifestyle change online. Winter is fond of sharing her healthy meals and consistent workouts with her followers. The younger sister of Chantel has fully embraced a healthier lifestyle, although she also credits her gastric sleeve with helping her to slim down.

Winter is far from the only 90 Day Fiancé franchise cast member to turn to weight loss surgery. Cast members, including Angela Deem and Tiffany Franco, have publicized their gastric sleeve procedures, and have earned much praise for the results. Winter has earned particular support from viewers because she has been realistic about the time and energy it takes to lose weight, even with surgery. Many The Family Chantel fans have been eagerly following Winter’s weight loss process, and encouraging her healthy lifestyle changes.
