Just a couple of weeks ago we saw that Sherri Shepherd lost a considerable amount of weight when she revealed her swimsuit body on The View.  But this week with her before and after images on the cover of Ok! Magazine we can really see  how much work she did and why she’s so proud of herself.  What makes Sherri’s story so great is that she did it the old-fashioned way; she learned to eat right and exercise.  Her story is also admirable because she wasn’t offered heaps of money to endorse a weight loss product, but it was simply something she decided to do.  She told Ok! Magazine,

“I said to my producer, ‘Why don’t we do something where I tell people ‘Let’s do it together!’ and maybe [up the ante with] a bathing suit.’…… Then all of sudden I had all these people doing it with me. I’d Tweet about going to the gym and how hard it was, and followers would write and say, ‘Sherri, I’ve lost two pounds!’ I thought, ‘Okay, people are getting into this.’”

“I hated my trainer so much.  But a lot of what kept me going was my son [Jeffrey, 4]. I really wanted to get healthy because I want to be there for him. I want to be able to see my son graduate, I want to see my grandkids – and I want to be able tell my son I don’t like my daughter-in-law.”

Sherrie Shepherd, one of the co-hosts on The View, is always talking about Twitter and tweeting when she’s on the show. She’s a strong supporter of the social networking platform but over the weekend her tweet went out to the wrong people – her fitness trainer and nutritional coach.  Currently, Sherrie is trying to get in shape in hopes of revealing a fit and trim bikini body during the show on August 6th.  Over the weekend she forgot that she’s just got two months until she de-robes and she fell off of the diet wagon:

“This weekend, I was out in L.A., and I’m tweeting about [how] I had fried calamari and I had some buffalo wings and I just went totally off my diet. And it was great!  I did not know that my nutritional coach and my trainer follow me.”
