Sherri Shepherd OK! Magazine Cover

 

The View’s Sherri Shepherd is showing off her slimmer body on the cover of the latest issue of OK! Magazine.

In the mag she shares her weight loss secrets for dropping 41 pounds.

She tells the mag:

“I lost weight last year and started gaining it back because I wasn’t exercising.  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.’ The minute I said that, I was like, ‘Gosh, I should take it back because I really want M&M’s!’ But I had to do it. 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.’”

Eating healthy was alos a big help in her weight loss, but there were still times she would give in to her cravings:

“Sometimes I just said, ‘I don’t want tilapia anymore; I can’t even deal with salad. I want M&M’s and Ruffles,’ But the difference was I was gonna get back up and go to the gym and keep my commitment. I never once felt like I deprived myself.”

Go girl!
