Sherri Shepherd may have recently dropped 41 pounds, but her SAG Awards dress still felt a bit tight.

"My Spanx are about to give out!" Shepherd, who flaunted her bathing suit bod on The View last August, joked to UsMagazine.com at a SAG after-party at the Shrine Auditorium in L.A. Saturday.

The talk show host, 42, who suffers from type 2 diabetes, went from a size 16 to 6 without surgery. "I do a lot of stairs, a lot of planks, a lot of squats, a lot of treadmill, a lot of screaming -- and I do it four times a week," she told Us last August.

What inspired her to get slim?

"I have a four-year-old I had at a late age," Shepherd said of her son, Jeffrey, on Good Morning America last summer. "My mom passed away at 41 from diabetic complications -- I want to be here for my son."

    Good for her! She should be there for her son!

    She is at least a size 12. Probably more like 14. Unless she is very very small boned.

    The is no way she is wearing a size 6 dress her boobs are too big she my be a size 6 on the bottom and about a 16 to 18 on top. She should never wear a sleeveless top her arms are tooooo big.

  • January 27, 2010 - 10:28pm Sherri's chest measurement

    There's no way in h*ll that Sherri 'looks' like a 9/10 on top. I'll bet she's at least 50+ inches in her chest, which would make her a solid 1X or size 22. Maybe on the bottom she's a 14/16? Anyway, Sherri has brought this all on herself with her theatrics. So we're to believe she's a size small (8/10) on top and a size xs (4/6) on the bottom?? Give me a break!! As Sir Walter Scott said... Oh what a tangled web we weave, When first we practice to deceive

    when she walks on the stage she just looks bizarre. Who dresses her? I know there are women who look to Sherri to be an icon for larger women, but she should do it with more class. And a size 6? You've got to be more honest with your audience. We are very aware of which size looks like what.

    Love you Sherri, but your breasts make you look larger than a size 6. Maybe if you got a reduction or reduced with a minimizing bra, you wouldn't look like a size 9/10 or bigger.

  • January 27, 2010 - 9:54am Don't show your spanx

    Is that photo on the right her in spanx -- the ones she wore under her SAGgy dress? Standback when she gets home and un hooks the bra hooks and girdle or you could get whiplash. I'm still laughing at that size 6 comment. Who does she think believes that? C'mon Sherri, we're not that dumb.

    i used to like sherri, but since she came on the view, she's not as funny. her body shape is sooo weird if that was me, i wouldn't be taking pictures in a bathing suit gross

  • January 27, 2010 - 4:23am Sherri looks terrible

    Sherri looked terrible on the view today (1/26). Whe was wearing some kind of purple nylon moo-moo and her wig style was for a 60 year old. She is such a wh0re and so stupid. I wish she would go away and never again have access to any stage, camera or magazine. With her talent, she's well on her way. Sherri, you SUCK!

    Sherri ... you look great! Get it girl!

  • January 26, 2010 - 10:37pm Jay

    She does need a boob reduction...she looks awkward!

  • January 26, 2010 - 5:20pm whiteM_loves-asianBabes

    is it possible for her to lose the weight but maintain the roundness and fullness of her luscious chocolately orbs?

  • January 26, 2010 - 2:22pm nabrina

    I have to add! Im a 16 & when I dropped 40 poundes before gaining them back, I went down to a 12, I wish it was 6 but it was 12!! She is not a 6!!

  • January 26, 2010 - 2:14pm nabrina

    No way in HELL is she a 6!!! She maybe a 10 but that is pushing it a little.

  • January 26, 2010 - 12:36pm Anon

    She's no size 6, that's for sure. She may have lost 41 lbs but she has 41 to go! She's a size 10 or 12 for sure!

  • January 26, 2010 - 12:26pm KC

    I am a size 6 and there is no freaking way she is too. Maybe, MAYBE, she can fit into a size 6 elasticized skirt. But 6 on the bottom and 16 on the top a size 6 does not make. If you're going to brag about being a certain size list your measurements.

  • January 26, 2010 - 11:42am HaTERZ

    I THINK SHE LOOKS NICE. A LITTLE BOOB REDUCTION AND CONTINUED SUCCESS IN HER WEIGHT LOSS TO GET HEALTHY SHE'LL BE OK. :) YOU SEE, IT DOESN'T HURT TO COMPLIMENT SOMEONE WHO IS WORKING HARD TO MAKE THEIR LIVES BETTER. BUT AS YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE MISERABLE PEOPLE ON HER MAKING NEGATIVE COMMENTS AS USUAL BEING THE HATERS THAT THEY ARE, BUT NEVER STOP TO THINK HOW UGLY THEY REALLY ARE..INSIDE AND OUT I'M SURE. YOU GO SHERRY!

  • January 26, 2010 - 11:05am digi

    good for her for losing the weight. she has that foghorn leghorn build, and unless she has breast reduction, she is always going to look heavier/larger than she is. but losing the weight was the right thing to do for her health, so kudos.

  • January 26, 2010 - 11:04am just me

    Sherri - congratulations on loosing weight but the dress style is not for you! I think if you went with a v-neckline because of your breast size, you would look a lot better - but you go sista girl!

    She looks good and healthy. Now did she need to go on TV in the swimsuit--no--but she would look alright at the beach. She's happy with her body image. She's also cute and HAS NO CELLULITE--so the rest of you quit hating. Most of YOU don't look as good as Sherri. And for those of you labeling her a wh@re--SHUT UP. She's made her mistakes, owned up to them, and has moved on--YOU NEED TO TRY DOING LIKEWISE. ...AND YES...at the high-end stores that Sherri shops at--SHE IS A SIZE 6--DON'T HATE because most of you will never be able to shop at those stores--LOL! She's cute, successful, and happy. It's obvious that's more than anyone can say about some of you nasty folks on this blog--LOL!
