Richard Simmons



Recommended Posts

Years ago when I had my VBG I started out exercising to Richard Simmons videos, they are fun, goofy and they get you moving. All I did after that surgery was walk 2 miles a day and then one of Richards CD's. Well, I have decided that today is the day. I actually feel really good for the first time since surgery so out came my dancing shoes. Wish me luck!

If you can dance your way to greater fitness, then by all means DANCE! I intend to do some of that as well, through Beachbody On Demand. There's so many good workouts, with different kinds of dance - hip hop, rock, country. Then they have the workouts that target specific areas, For example, I plan to work on my glutes as well as my legs and arms so they are hopefully not quite as saggy as I've heard they can get. If I do get saggy bottom, I guess Spanx will become my best friend. LOL!

Enjoy your workouts. I'm proud of you for identifying what inspires you and brings you joy to do. Way to go!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
