Richard Simmons – Weight Loss Journey
Richard Simmons is a celebrated fitness guru who rose to prominence in the ’70s. “Real People” was the first series to introduce him to the public, followed by numerous media appearances and TV commercials. He is known for promoting weight-loss programs, mainly through his “Sweatin’ to the Oldies” line of aerobics videos.
Since then, he has been helping people lose weight via other different platforms, too, like Facebook, Twitter, and Myspace. He hosted a radio show titled “Lighten Up with Richard Simmons” on Sirius Stars from 2006 to 2008. Firmly out of the spotlight since 2014, he’s been living a quiet life spending more time with himself.
