Richard Simmons Making A Comeback?

 Well, someone is doing something with his material.

A few weeks ago the Richard Simmons YouTube page came alive again with uploads of many of his old videos, from 10 minute snippets to complete workouts. The occasional post would also appear on his Facebook and Twitter pages. And today I found out his entire website has been revamped, and the Clubhouse link no longer causes my McAfee to jump up and say "Whoa! Don't go there, dude! It's gnarly!" OK, I exaggerate the warning, but not by much. It wasn't just the yellow warning band, it was bright red lettering and I do remember exclamation points.

I remember when I had the 2 McDougall Groups over on Yahoogroups (RIP - Yahoo is shutting the door on Groups this coming Tuesday after slowly killing them the past few years.) there were many members who used either Richard Simmons Deal A Meal and FoodMover gadgets to keep track of their eating. Even more were still Weight Watchers members and using those tips and tricks to try lose their weight while eating the MWLP way. 

 

Perhaps the Richard Simmons company is coming out with something new in the near future. If so, it's got to be cheaper than a membership in one of a certain "chef's" many for-pay food plans and support systems (Same program but with 3 different names, so far. No wonder she hosts seminars on how to monetize the vegan food programs.).

Anyway, it'll be nice to see the old gang over there again. So far not too many people have joined the new message boards, but once word gets out it's sure to grow. Us old farts adored that fuzzy headed ball of energy! LOL
