The Dish Nation host said that she had grown emotionally attached to sugar, bad carbs, cookies, and candy to get her through her day-to-day.

Shepherd also confirmed in the comments that she is lower than 151 pounds. 

The 53-year-old was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 2007 and decided to go on a sugar-free keto diet in 2018 when she decided to start improving her health, People reports.
