Winter Everett from The Family Chantel has had one of the most interesting transformations in the 90 Day Fiancé, and her before and after weight loss surgery photos do all the talking. Winter was introduced as Chantel Everett’s younger sister on 90 Day Fiancé season 4. Unlike Chantel, whose relationship with Pedro Jimeno was at the forefront of the show, Winter didn’t contribute to much of the drama back then. However, she stepped into the spotlight with her boyfriend Jah on the TLC spin-off, and since her breakup, the 27-year-old has started a fitness journey that is reaping marvelous results.
Outside of The Family Chantel, Winter seemed to keep her life pretty low-key. Winter and Jah met when she was 19 years old. As she entered her 20s, Winter spent time with Jah’s daughter from a previous relationship, who she considered her own. However, once she became a prominent 90 Day Fiancé cast member, Winter’s life couldn’t stay private anymore. Jah proposed to Winter on The Family Chantel, and fans soon learned about their off-camera split. Winter realized that she deserved more respect in her relationship. Fans, too, felt that Winter, the most sympathetic of all Everett family members, was being taken advantage of by her ex-boyfriend.
Jah told Winter to leave, and she returned to her family to start a new chapter filled with self-love and positivity. 90 Day Fiancé fan favorite Winter has always received full support from The Family Chantel fans during her public weight loss, and her brother River Everett has always encouraged her. While Chantel and Winter may have had some friction in their relationship, their sisterly bond is now stronger than ever as 90 Day Fiancé fans can clearly see on Winter’s Instagram. Winter’s IG profile has served as inspiration for followers to start their own weight-loss journey, as the reality star posts impressive pics.
Winter has been candid about shedding her extra weight with The Family Chantel viewers on social media. But upon her return to The Family Chantel season 4 in June, fans saw Winter making a life-changing medical decision. Winter had posted before and after photos of herself after losing 50 pounds exactly a year ago over the Fourth of July weekend. While the post is now deleted, Winter had written, “The picture on the left was taken a few years ago.” Winter confessed she was around 330 pounds back then and “the heaviest” she’d ever weighed.
Health was not a priority for Winter in her past with the “unfortunate situations” that surrounded her. But her “body was screaming out for help,” and Winter began a life focused on bettering herself. “In 2020, I completely changed my focal point,” wrote Winter, who now decided to focus on “WHO I AM,” which wasn’t an easy task. 90 Day Fiancé celeb Winter had to give up munching on junk food and started to pace herself by eating first her proteins, then her vegetables, and then a serving of rice, while enjoying every bite. Winter finally decided to get the gastric sleeve surgery she always wanted. It was performed at the Bach Hospital and Medical Center in Tijuana, where doctors removed 75 percent of Winter’s stomach.
Even though Winter and fashionista Chantel have the same bloodline, they have completely different body types, which became sort of a sore spot for the younger sister. Winter spoke about feeling inadequate next to her sister, and it damaged her self-esteem. Winter is often compared to Chantel, so she took to wearing more makeup and hating her curly hair. She wondered why they didn’t look the same, although Winter and Chantel ran together and were even on the same cheerleading team. But Winter has now seemingly learned the value of self-acceptance. She is no longer person she used to be when she stepped into the world of 90 Day Fiancé, but her uniqueness and the pride she takes in knowing how far she’s come is what really makes her lovable and wholesome.
