Black people don't talk about diabetes that much. I never knew anything. I thought everyone had an uncle with a leg cut off!

More quotes by Sherri Shepherd
I know that for me I have to get out of the way and let God take control.
Sherri Shepherd
I've always liked the fact that I could make people laugh at crazy stuff that has happened to me. If it makes you feel better at me falling down the stairs...then I'm going to do it.
Sherri Shepherd
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.
Sherri Shepherd
I have so much hair I have a separate wig closet in my house.
Sherri Shepherd
I worked at Sears in the Woodfield Mall as a gift wrapper. I'm actually a great gift wrapper, and the customers were so nice to me. I was only 16, and eventually Sears put me in customer service because I was so friendly.
Sherri Shepherd
I believe God has called His people to be a light in darkness.
Sherri Shepherd
I can't swim and I'm terrified of drowning, but I still love being by water - just not in it.
Sherri Shepherd
If it wasn't for my trainer - who comes looking for me three times a week before 7 A.M. - I wouldn't get my butt out of bed and into the gym. There are many mornings when I think about faking a sprained ankle, but I just put it out of my head and make myself go.
Sherri Shepherd
I believe in Jesus Christ as my Lord and savior. I believe that Jesus died for my sins, and rose again, and that's my belief. I still don't know what 'Christian' means. I'm a follower of Christ, but I keep making a whole bunch of mistakes. And I thank God for forgiveness.
Sherri Shepherd
I burn a lot of stuff. My son, bless his heart, eats it anyway. But he makes a face!
Sherri Shepherd
I was taught not to confront and interrupt people, but that's what I do every day on 'The View.'
Sherri Shepherd
Go to a wig store with your girlfriends, never by yourself. You need someone to say, 'Girl that looks good!' You need someone to encourage you to try pieces on. Try to purchase a wig close to your natural hair color as possible, don't come in with brown hair and try to leave as a redhead unless you are fine with that!
Sherri Shepherd
I have hair that I audition with, my sitcom hair which is a curly wig. I have my long chic hair that I wear to my son's school so they know I'm not playing around. I always tell people that my husband gets a different woman every night when I come home from 'The View.' Hair makes you feel a certain way, like putting a power suit on.
Sherri Shepherd
Write yourself a permission slip to be surprised by someone's potential. Who knows? One day that person could be you.
Sherri Shepherd
My mom passed away at 41 from diabetes. And I'm 42, thank you. I didn't want to do that to my son. So any time I was at the gym, that thing that helped me do that last squat was my son calling some other woman mommy. And that would just give me that extra oomph to do that last squat. I want to be around for him.

My father was and is a great father. My father always wanted to do stand-up. He wanted to be an actor. But instead he did two jobs. He did customer service at a hospital and he worked as a waiter at night. He pretty much sacrificed everything for his daughters.
Sherri Shepherd
My husband, Sal, and I put date nights on the calendar once a week. I know that doesn't sound romantic, but otherwise it won't get done.
Sherri Shepherd
I've always had a quirky way of looking at things. It's my coping mechanism.
Sherri Shepherd
I'm a mother. Mothers multi-task.
Sherri Shepherd
I've always been a strong believer that you were born with the hair you've got, but have the ability to get the hair you want.
