How to stay on course during the "Eating Season"

Sherri Emery is the owner of ImageWorks.  She is rebranding Graphic Services of Central Florida, which she founded in 2000. Since June of 2012 she now runs the company that she once owned. We serve local businesses as well as national accounts. We offer just about any type of sign, vehicle graphics, printed materials, apparel and promotional products.

Sherri is here today to talk about her weight loss.  Her high weight on Januray 1, 2010 was 282.5 pounds. She lost sixty in 2010, thirty in 2011 and ten in 2012.

She sarted to regain weight in 2013 and was back to 205.

She decided in June that she wasn’t living that way again, started to watch what she ate and started exercising. "My weight is back down. I would like to lose about 20 more pounds.”

Sherri’s success in weight loss has come from knowing that it takes time to lose weight properly. You don’t gain it overnight and you don’t lose it overnight.

This isn’t for everyone, but it is what worked for me.

Over this summer Sherri started using myfitnesspal with a group of friends and family and that has lent to success as well.  “I would like to say that I have had a lifestyle change not a diet but admittedly I can’t call it that yet. It is hard to stay consistent and on track.”

Losing weight is not an easy choice but it is a choice well worth it. I feel for people that are heavy. I was once there. It’s not a good feeling to have trouble tying your shoes, or to not be able to play with your kids in the way you should be able to. Now I do anything with my kids, in fact they have to keep up with me now!
