Sherri Shepherd (@sherrieshepherd) admitted to starting the keto diet which emphasizes high-fat foods with few to no carbohydrates in the summer of 2018. She felt better than ever after losing 20 pounds during the COVID-19 pandemic. She flaunted her stunning weight loss on Instagram, posing in a slinky black form-fitting gown. She also revealed her waistline measurements, which have dropped from 47 to 35 inches. The Call Your Mother actress attributed her slimmer figure to a strict high-fat, low-carb diet and intermittent fasting.
Shepherd added that she hoped her post would inspire others. She simply wants to encourage people to take one step toward better health, then another, and another. She prefers mall changes on a daily basis. Her weight loss secrets include drinking more water, sleeping more, exercising, meditating, praying, forgiving, and eating less sugar and carbs. Similarly, the broadcaster believes that if she can do it, then everyone can conquer the world. Meanwhile, she isn’t relying solely on exercise to meet her weight loss goals.
The 55-year-old comedian had been watching her weight fluctuate for years before realizing she needed to make a change when she was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 2007. If she didn’t have diabetes, she’d probably be eating a stack of pancakes with butter and syrup at the International House of Pancakes. Sherri would most likely weigh 250 pounds and would not visit the doctor. The television personality learned to eat after her diagnosis. Moreover, she had become overly reliant on takeout during the pandemic, but she planned to cook for herself on a regular basis to help maintain her health.
Similarly, the actress/author discovered how to avoid white foods such as pasta, pancakes, cereal, and anything high in sugar. Her health issues persisted, and in 2018, her younger son Jeffrey inspired her to give up sugar and change her diet plan. The former co-host of Fox’s Dish Nation varies her workout routine to achieve results. The Zumba fan recently began roller-skating and pole dancing, thanks to Los Angeles dancer Danielle Hawkins. She also participated in pole fitness classes.
On the other hand, the co-host laced up her skates three times a week for hour-long lessons in the rhythmic sport. Hawkins, who refers to her client as hardcore, also teaches pole dancing to Shepherd once a week. She’s also been open about how difficult it is to lose weight. The television personality admitted in July 2019 that she had fallen off the wagon and gained weight as a result of her hectic schedule. Then, in December 2020, Sherri Shepherd admitted to gaining weight during the pandemic and committed to losing weight again.
As of 2022, she is back in shape again and her 90 pounds weight loss transformation is stunning the world. And yes, she did not undergo any surgery. Instead, she used a drug named Wegovy which helps to suppress appetite.
