FORT WASHINGTON, Pa.,
June 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --Reality
star Darrell Sheets may be storing
many things these days, but extra weight is not one of them. The
56-year-old treasure hunter recently revealed that he has lost 40
pounds thanks to Nutrisystem (NASDAQ: NTRI), a leading
provider of weight management products and services as well as a
new fitness regime.
At more than 300 pounds, Sheets realized he had become that guy
on the couch who needed to lose a significant amount of weight.
After losing an initial 35 pounds, Sheets turned to Nutrisystem to
help him continue his weight loss. Appropriate for his busy
lifestyle and instrumental in helping him manage his pre-diabetes,
Nutrisystem was the perfect program for him.
"My joints hurt. My body hurt. I was tired of exercise with no
results. Plus, I had to get away from eating cheeseburgers and
making bad choices on the set," says Sheets. "Nutrisystem was the
easy answer."
Sheets also relied heavily on the support of his wife, Kimber,
to stay on the weight loss track, claiming she was a big motivator
from the beginning. Today, Sheets is making better choices,
learning portion control, and continuing his success, thanks in
large part to Kimber's support and knowledge of the right weight
loss program—one that would work for him.
What's more, Sheets says he has a new lease on life, and he
hopes to be an inspiration to others looking to achieve similar
weight loss goals. He even employs the same thought process on
losing weight that he does when buying storage lockers.
"It's all about hope," says Sheets. "Hope is having 200 bucks to
buy a locker and a chance to change your life. It's that same
hope that motivated me to lose weight. I knew life would be much
sweeter when I achieved my goal. Now, I want to spread that message
of hope to others. If I can change one life at a time by helping
someone get off the couch, I will be happy."
