‘The Talk’ host Sheryl Underwood lost 90 pounds and admitted she’s considering gastric bypass surgery
“I want to go forward,” co-host news recounts her weight loss journey.
Sheryl Underwood couldn’t stop smiling on the set of The Talk as the presenters filmed the season 13 promo, and that’s because she has something to celebrate.
Not only will the show feature a new theme song and carnival look for its premiere, but the co-host, who is on the show in its twelfth season, has a new look of her own after losing 90 pounds in the last year and a half.
Underwood, 58, remembers getting bad news from his doctor when his weight fluctuated between 230 pounds. And 250 pounds. “My lab: diabetes, prediabetes, high blood pressure, all those things you hear, especially in women,” she exclusively tells news of her wake-up call. “I want to get ahead of him.” Sheryl Underwood couldn’t stop smiling on the set of The Talk as the presenters shot a promotional video for season 13, and that’s because she has a lot to celebrate.

“Obesity is one of the biggest risk factors for countless types of cancer,” Dr Zuri A. Murrell, Cedars Sinai’s colon and rectal surgeon who treats Underwood, told the news. “For many patients, weight loss is tough. [Wegovy] offers another tool in our arsenal to treat this “disease”. Wegovy targets areas in the brain that regulate hunger and food intake, reducing the amount of food needed to feel full. It also slows gastrointestinal motility, making you feel fuller. There is also evidence that it stabilizes insulin levels, which is important for weight loss.”
But the syringe was only part of their plan. Underwood, who cares for his disabled sister, knows he has to work too. So he started changing his lifestyle.
