Photo: See Mama Joyce's Dramatic Weight Loss!

Mama Joyce is ready to give Melissa Gorga a run for her money!

If you’ve ever wondered where The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Kandi Factory's Kandi Burruss gets her chutzpah, then take a look at Mama Joyce!

The matriarch of Kandi Burruss’ family is known as quite the spitfire, and she’s recently gotten even hotter!  

Kandi recently posted a photo of her mother on Instagram, and it showed off her mother’s significant weight loss. Mama Joyce was looking tres chic, sporting a cute bobbed haircut with bangs paired with a striped white sheath dress. The newly-svelte reality show mama looks amazing in horizontal stripes -- a challenging feat for any woman! Lookin’ good, Mama Joyce!

Kandi and her mother are known for their close relationship. Last year, Kandi even splurged and bought Mama Joyce an Audi Q7 for her birthday!
