May I suggest a pretty good book??

Now keep in mind most of the time I find RIchard Simmons very annoying. But he has done a lot of good for a lot of people!! A friend of mine boutght me "Still Hungry After All Theese Years" for Christmas. I started it last week and am very surprised to find it is actually a good book!! You learn a lot about where he was and how he got to where he is. After reading the book maybe I will have to give second thought to his annoying status. It really is very inspirational!! I recomend it to anyone who is trying to loose weight!

Thanks for the recommendation. I like his videos, and I have found him motivating. Those silky shorts on the other hand do make me shake my head! LOL!!! My DD(4) actually likes to "work out" with his tapes. She calls him the "guy with the curly hair" I think our library has this book, I'll have to check it out!

I'll have to read it, thanks for sharing! I like Richard, I think he is very sincere.

I will check the library for it! I do find him annoying, but I think he's a great guy. If I see one of his infomercials, I get hooked on it until the end. They always make me cry. He is such a terrific person!

Me, too! I know he's uh ... hyper ... but I really feel he has a heart for people and loves what he does, and that really comes across. I read the book, and it's a good one, very motivational.

I love Richard! He is the real deal. I love his tales of how he was a cpmmercial star in Europe -- he was a dancing meatball, I think -- and a fan told him she was afraid he would die because he was so overweight. That motivated his original weight loss. I appreciate his attempts to help people and also love that he is so real -- he gains a few pounds like we all do! He is hysterical on Letterman - Dave can't quite figure out what to do with him! I wish Richard would just come to love with me til I get this weight off!
