Title: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)
Post by: Doug Varrieur on November 29, 2011, 09:55:44 AM
I'm very proud to announce that on January 3rd Sherripie will join me on the national stage! We will have a double segment on a morning show called "The Daily Buzz" Daily Buzz is a major TV show airing in more than 150+ markets daily nationwide. Here's a link to their website- http://dailybuzznation.com/ (http://dailybuzznation.com/)

The first segment will feature my sugar demonstration including a wheelbarrow full of sugar, immediately following we step into the second segment with Sherri, myself and the Buzz hosts discussing her success and the change it's made in her life.

Be sure to mark your calendars for the Daily Buzz show in your area for January 3rd!

Very Cool!!!...  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
I'll have my DVR set to record the show.

I imagine that this forum will get flooded after your segment airs.
Hopefully, the forum's servers will be able to handle it.

I'm looking forward to helping as many folks as I can with their FTS journeys!!! :) :) :) :)

Owensmath, that is a GREAT idea!   I'd drive to Murphy anytime to meet up with ya'll.   We should plan that next Summer for real!  (Then again, I'd definitely be willing to go back to the Keys again if we need to!!  ha ha)   ;D

Umpa, I did order my book from Doug, so YAY!!!  I'd LOVE an autographed copy!!  Wow!  As for your question, I live in Gainesville, which is about 50 miles NE of Atlanta.  I'm down near Atlanta at least once a month going to visit my daughter.  Her college is just west of the city in Marietta, Ga.

I watched the whole time it was on.  Boy they went way to fast!!!  Although they did talk about it several times.  Doug you did great!!  ;D ;D  I was sad that I didn't see Sherri.  Is there going to be another day or did they just run out of time to have her on??  Great job though  ;)
Title: Re: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)

Title: Re: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)
Post by: owensmath on January 03, 2012, 09:39:16 AM
Doug must have been on during the first hour because I watched the last two hours and only saw them give his list of tips. The funny thing is that the video they ran next to his list of tips showed lots of high carb foods like spaghetti.
Title: Re: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)

Oh that is good.... I was afraid that they just didn't have her on at all.  I'm with Jo...will it be scheduled for another time??

Owensmath I noticed and wondered about the same thing...LOL 
Title: Re: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)
Post by: SherriPie on January 03, 2012, 12:30:36 PM
We just finished taping and it was SO fun! Doug rocked it of course and I just smiled and talked and talked. LOL

Doug did the Daily Buzz but they cut the second segment with me in it. So I just was on the GalTime show with Doug. They are going to send us links for the forum so everyone can watch. It was a really fun experience and great to finally meet Doug in person. I am posting a couple of pics below. You have GOT to see Doug's truck, it was awesome. Missed you Umpa! I was hoping you would be there :(

I was more nervous about not being skinny enough to tell people about loosing weight, than the actual act of being on there. Being on the show was a lot of fun and Doug was giving me pointers so it all went smoothly.

Hi Sherri! :)

I watched you guys this morning and was so happy to see FTS being featured on TV again.
I pray it gets more folks to change their high carb ways and join us.

Looking at that wheel barrow full of sugar bags, I see how Doug gets his exercise! :D :D :D

Doug was his usual suave self... And you rocked it! ;D
How does it feel to be a celebrity? ;)

Sherrie hows are you and your son doing with the homeschooling ? Do yall like it ? I am sure he feels better being away from all the crap at school



He is just loving it Jo. We are doing Florida Virtual school so it's basically public school but at home via the internet. He has teachers for all his classes so if he needs help he has it. I help fulltime here with him and teach the classes, like you would homeschooling but it's nice to have back up if I don't get something. That algebra is a lot harder than I remember it being. :)  Anyway he has straight A's this first semester and is smiling and laughing like never before. It thrills me everyday not to have to send him to school, the bullying was just so bad. Now I see him thriving and enjoying things and it just makes my heart happy. :)
Title: Re: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)
Post by: joagain on January 04, 2012, 12:08:29 PM
That is great . That is how I felt with Tyler and then having to worry about his diabetes on top of the bullies was for sure not with it . I am glad he is happy !! It will make all the difference in the world when he gets older .
People dont realize what their being cruel does to people it can affect them for ever. Plus I think it is twice as bad now .

So glad you decided on it & I know you are !!!!!!!
Title: Re: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)
Post by: mouseissue on January 04, 2012, 12:40:20 PM
Bullies (and other mean people) suck! >:(

I remember in high school how cruel those bullies could be.
There were a couple on our varsity football team (on which I too was a member). I didn't take kindly to them and they knew it.
Sadly, the only way to avoid the bullying is to avoid the bullies.

I'm thrilled hearing about our children thriving in a non-bully environment.
God bless them (and you guys for it)! :)

Yeah...make Doug work while you play!! :)

Sherri, I want you to know how proud I am of you. You did a great job on GalTime, your heart is in the right place and it's obvious how passionate you are about helping others....love you darlin!

Post by: ShihTzuMom1 on January 05, 2012, 09:37:11 AM
Do you think there were a few tears shed when Doug and SherriPie met for the first time in person?
Title: Re: Sherripie to be featured on National TV!! :)
Post by: SherriPie on January 05, 2012, 01:30:50 PM
No tears, lots of hugs. I found him chatting in the hallway near the stage and said "it's me Sherripie" and hugged him. :)


And Doug, thanks for the kind words. I just hope there are some people out there that we can help. :)
