Sheryl Underwood Celebrates 95 Pound Weight Loss, Wears Dress & Heels on 'The Talk' for First Time

Sheryl Underwood is celebrating her 59th birthday by showing off her 95 pound weight loss!

The longtime The Talk co-host wore a dress and heels on the show for the first time after 12 years on the panel.

“As you all know, I’ve lost 95 pounds and I’ve made significant life changes. I was not healthy, and I want to live a long, long time and I want to be sitting on this stage a long, long time. So, I worked hard with my doctors. I did what I needed to do, and I just wanted to be able to put on a very stylish, but clingy dress to symbolize and the work that I put in. Now I’m about to do something that I have never done on this show….I haven’t done in about 25 to 30 years. I’m about to cross my legs,” Sheryl told the crowd.

“I knew I was gaining weight. I could see it, and I knew that something was happening with my health … And for the years that I’ve been here, you can go back through all of the footage, you’ve never seen me cross my legs,” Sheryl later told People, “It felt amazing. Natalie, Amanda, and I, we’re sisters in this, and I just wanted to do what I see them doing. So now we call it ‘the Natalie’.”

Sheryl told People that she started making significant lifestyle changes and then started Wegovy, “an injection she began taking weekly to help suppress her appetite and jump start her weight loss program.”

Sheryl says she wants to lose 15 to 20 more pounds and she opened up about her lifestyle changes.

“I have to modulate, I make sure I drink a lot more water. I still have a really great quality of life. I have fun. Cake, rosé. But instead of having the big piece of cake, I have a bite of the cake and satisfy that. I have a glass of rosé, but I know I have to drink some water with it,” she said. “So I can tell when my face puffs up and everything and it’s not just on camera vanity, it’s health, period.”
