Sherry Shepherd has been a curvy girl and embraces her body, but she’s also recently got in fantastic shape. She was inspired to work out to be able to see her son grow up and be an active part of his life. She is down to 159 pounds and has only been working out with a new routine for three months.

She’s lost weight everywhere, but kept her curvy figure, stating that her measurements are 40-33-37. (And that’s after losing four inches from her chest.)

But I caught this article on People about Melissa Joan Hart (the former Sabrina, the Teenage Witch star) and something she said really resonated with me.

I haven’t posted a Question of the Week lately, so I thought I’d kick off this week with one. After I posted this note about Fergie yesterday, I stumbled across more news about Larry The Cable Guy losing weight with Nutrisystem. Larry The Cable Guy?! I have to honestly tell you I’m a little surprised.
