Her Fitness Journey Began With Her Son's Concern

Sherri, 51, revealed during an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show that her son, Jeffrey Tarpley, 14, was the driving force behind her decision to get healthy. She shared a heartfelt story about a moment that really hit home for her. “Sometimes you go through tough times and you just want to grab something sweet,” Sherri explained on the show. “Things like ex-husbands, you know? And I was doing that, and Jeffrey was in the backseat with me. Wendy, I was eating something I wasn’t supposed to, and he said, ‘Mommy, if you die, who’s going to be my bodyguard?’”

That moment struck a chord with Sherri. She realized she needed to make a change, not just for herself, but for her son. “I said, ‘What are you talking about?’ He replied, ‘Who’s going to watch me?’ And literally, I said to myself, ‘Sherri, you’ve got to do something different.’”

A Journey Fueled by Strength and Resilience

Sherri has faced her share of challenges in life. A few years ago, she went through a difficult divorce from her first husband, Jeff Tarpley, in 2010, followed by a stressful custody battle over their son, Jeffrey. Despite these hardships, Sherri remained resilient. When she finally won the custody battle, she took to Twitter to express her gratitude. “God is good. VICTORY!!! The prayers of the righteous availeth much!!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your prayers! #tearfulmama,” she wrote at the time.

It’s truly inspiring to see Sherri take charge of her health for her son—and she’s looking absolutely amazing as a result. Her dedication to her fitness journey is a testament to her strength and determination. And let’s be honest, she’s never looked better!
