Sherri Shepherd Bette Midler's New York Restoration

Sherri Shepherd is getting her body ready for a baby. Sure, she’s getting ready to tie the knot with Lamar Sally in August and wants to look her best, but she’s wants a baby even more!

“I have to lose as much weight as possible for me to be healthy to carry [a baby],” she told People.

Sherri Shepherd Has A Problem

This girl is working hard with personal training sessions plus Zumba dance classes and the South Beach Diet.

“I go at 7 in the morning, four times a week to see my trainer over at the Reebok Club,” she revealed at the Spring Gala honoring Stevie Wonder at the Apollo Theater recently. “She’s doing a lot of interval training with me, and these things called suicides. Those are really tough.”

Um, all I can say is rock star!  I couldn’t keep up!

Sherri Shepherd Diet

Her dress is too small!!  Sherri Shepherd is getting married in about two months and her dress is too small!  Can you think of anything worse as a bride?

“I lied about my weight to the dressmakers. I gave them my fantasy size,” Sherri, 44, confesses to Life & Style. “When I went for my second fitting, I realized it was still quite a fantasy!”

So how shall she fix her dilemma?  She and her man, Lamar Sally are working out to get fit for the big day.

“If I don’t reach my goal weight, I’m not going to beat myself up,” Sherri admits to Life & Style. “My fiancé loves me thick — so be it.” The View co-host admits she’s got a style inspiration for her special day: the first lady. “My look will be chubby Michelle Obama!” she says with a laugh.

Now that’s my kind of attitude, no need to flip out.  Have a goal, reach it with a backup plan!

The View’s co-host, Sherri Shepherd is officially engaged to TV writer Lamar Sally.  He popped the question the day after Christmas, and he did it with unique style (love it!)

Sherri’s rep shared the story,

“Upon arriving back to Lamar’s home in Los Angeles from a trip to San Diego, Sherri was surprised to find their accommodations had been decorated with lights by one of Sal’s best friends, her dog was wearing a Santa beard and hat, and, in the middle of a dish of Sherri’s favorite but forbidden M&M’s (she is diabetic), was a tiny little box.”

Sally asked permission from Shepherd’s 5-year-old son, Jeffrey.  He even bribed him a bit with Michael Jackson’s The Experience Wii game.

“With that, Sal took a knee and, backed up by the King of Pop, popped the question.”

How cute is that?  We will get to hear this story from Sherri on The View next week.  Can’t wait!

Congratulations to the happy couple!
