- Today Richard Simmons joined one of Ellen's former staff members, David Garcia, as he shared how he lost over 150 pounds in the past year with Richard's help. It's an inspiring story you shouldn't miss.
Richard Simmons has one of the most beautiful hearts on earth. The way that he helps people get control back into their life and his genuine love for others is inspirational.
:( We lost him too early
0:30 omg when Richard moved to let him have his spotlight 😭 I swear Richard is an angel
That’s the first thing I noticed too!
That’s very classy
Richard is a real sweetheart !❤
He is an Angel ...
I've said it before and I'll say it again...Richard Simmons--no matter how silly he may act at times--is a wonderful person who really cares about people and wants to help them achieve their weight loss goals.
I spent 10 years losing over 300lbs (top weight 532) and I can tell you Richard Simmons is an inspiration. I, like David, had been obese my entire life and am now enjoying what it is like to be able to walk into any store and buy something. And yes, I am seeing my collar bone for the first time too. LOL
Danelle Parker Voice Over Do you find the maintenance of the weight loss more difficult than the actual losing of the pounds?
Wishing you peace and happiness in this moment ✌️❤️🙏
I've had quite a few laughs at Richard Simmons' expense but no one can deny that the guy has helped people make tremendous changes in their lives and lose shit tons of weight.
Big props to this guy for losing 150 pounds. Absolutely incredible. He looks amazing.
Richard Simmons has done more good on this earth than like 99.9999% of us. He's kind of weird but maybe it's for the best.
Richard Simmons was just a beautiful, tenderhearted person. I truly hope that he realized just how many people he helped; and I hope he left this world realizing he was BELOVED by many. Rest in Peace, King Richard, you were truly a great gentleman. May your reward be great in Heaven. ❤❤.
Ikr he’s probably leading worship in heaven or doing something really special there ❤🎉
@@stephaniej6317I sure hope so. Heaven just became a little brighter with the arrival of Richard Simmons. Hope Richard is shining his light in Heaven. Richard Simmons was an inspiration to so many and he will be missed. I miss him already ❤.....
Simmons is such a nice man, I hate when people treat him badly or make rude comments about him just for the sake of a laugh.
The young intern we see in the Pauly Shore short film that Richard Simmons talks to backstage on the Ellen show is this person. 🤔🤗🙏👍
The thing about Richard Simmons is that he has always advocated safe, slower weight loss which ultimately is easier to maintain than the insane current-day "Biggest Loser" types of rapid weight loss that is both dangerous and hard to maintain. Our society is too focused on looks and immediate fixes, but just as the weight built up slowly it needs to come off slowly or you'll likely regain. Simmons tried to make it fun, but slower weight loss doesn't pull in ratings like shock and awe reveals. He even talks about his own rapid loss journey and how dangerous it was, and you can see that he truly enjoys helping people do weight loss correctly. Props to Simmons, he is an amazing guy who has helped countless numbers of people do it the right way.
I just started doing "Sweating to the oldies' again. It's harder than people thinks. It's really one of the most fun workouts I do every week.
Richard Simmons is an angel!
The fact that a lot of people don't know who Richard Simmons is, is very sad :(
its funny and great how richard simmons is hyper and comical, but as soon as anyone compliments him, he gets really shy XD
It's sooo cute ❤️😍
richard is now staying home. i hope he is happy. he's changed many lives
Sounds like that’s what he did from that point, to now……rip.
Richard is so sweet and genuinely cares for people. I love him so much.
Richard is a sweet heart I been his fan for over 30 years and I love the book he wrote about his childhood growing up in New Orleans it makes me laugh and cry and his deep love for his mom and dad know that's what makes Richard the sweet heart that he is to the world that's Mr Simmons
Yes 💜💜💜
I love Richard Simmons, his personality is fantastic. He loves who he is and is not afraid at all to make someone laugh. He is awesome. He is not afraid to make a fool out of himself to give others a good laugh, and that is a strong person who believe in himself and know exactly who he is. hat off for Richard Simmons
Richard where are you? We love you... No matter what... we love you.. come back and get a hug.
The man is a legend. He's helped so many people, it's surreal. Never forget watching him in the 80's into the 90's. God Bless you Sir.
Richard is a hero!
Love you Richards Simmons ... you helped me to lose 30 pounds .. your program really works ... love it ..

With all his quirks, I love and adore Richard Simmons. So wonderful that he reached out to help David.
I still have my Sweatin to the Oldies DVDs. Richard was a giving, great person that will never be forgotten. ❤
Rest in peace Richard! We love you! ❤
I watch this episode often...it always bring tears to my eyes that someone that has such a big heart like Richard is made of so often. The way he moves to the back when David comes out is so classy!! He wants David to be in the limelight and not him...I would ask Richard so many things if I ever got to meet him...First off..I would tell him that he is loved by so many and How the HELL does it do it??
this is so inspiring. I just recently joined Jenny Craig and it's been such a blessing. 10 lbs in 3 weeks :)

I just love Richard Simmons I think hes so cool I love is compassionate for people overweight he understands them he relates Tom hes an inspiration motivator I think he is awesome
Richard is the real deal. Ive met him.
I've grown up knowing of, and liking Richard Simmons. He's the real deal, and so kind. :)
So inspiring! Congratulations David! You look phenomenal! I love Richard Simmons. He has helped so many throughout the years and truly has made a difference in the lives of so many...mine included.
I love Richard. He has a great heart for people
awe. Richard Simmons is very very sweet. you can def tell his heart is gold. no matter how eccentric he is
lol... i remember 'sweatin' to the oldies' with Richard Simmons back in the 80s. what fun that was :). congrats to Mr. Garcia. you look great, sir!
Say all the negative things you want about Richard Simmons, but this dude helps people lose weight and he makes them feel good about themselves. Yes he's a little eccentric but who cares? His message is nothing less than full of love and inspiration and to be honest we need more people with his positivity in the public light helping people.
Hard core truth is what it is ..It takes a lot of work to lose the weight. Those of us who have tried and failed so many times know how hard it is to lose weight . Ive never bought a Richard Simmons video but I watch him on youtube from time to time . Been many factors that motivated me to lose 57 lbs and Richard was always there for me on you tube and a big motivating factor . Thx to Richard ..
This guy was handsome before the weight loss but, now he looks so healthy and happy!
Great show...Richard Simmons is the greatest! He never makes fun of others, he's inspiring..and his energy is so wacky! lol He sometimes reminds me of Jerry Lewis! All good. Ellen is also generous and loving...yea!
Thankyou Ellen for making my life a very happy one. I finish my day watching you in CZcams. You make me laugh, cry, inspire me in so many ways !! Thankyou very much. You have change my life. Love you so much
I love Richard so much and this other guy has the most soothing voice.
I am so happy for this guy! Richard Simmons seems like a pretty great guy when you think about all the lives he changed. I hope that i will be as successful in my weight loss journey as David was.
Richard has helped so many people! He is such an inspiration:)
About 15 yrs. ago i was honor to meet richard in alameda,ca. and he is one of the most beautiful ppl you could ever meet. When he looks at u it's as if he sees the real you, not your size.U feel like he has love and compassion for U and doesn't even know U. I have live 43 yrs. and never felt that form anyone besides my family. Not to many ppl like him in this world,it's a shame. I used his deal a meal program and lost 58 lbs. in 5 months. IT WORKS !!!! richard is a true angel !
I love how Richard freaks out when David gets the prizes; he's genuinely happy for other people as if he had won the prize himself. :)
Whole Foods is so expensive that $5000 gift card is enough for two months. . .
+MoInfo i was about to call you over dramatic until i looked up the Australian Whole foods site
holy fucking shit $15 for maple syrup are you fucking kidding me? $8 for a fucking 100g chocolate bar?
i shop at upmarket places but that shit is bullshit
+MoInfo I can't even afford their dust.
+MoInfo IKR stuff is way too expensive these days sigh
+MoInfo 2 good things I have noticed after taking this supplement is the increased, consistent energy and the lower hunger levels. Weight loss green store tea has been helping me a lot to lose weight that way and I never thought it could be this easy.
i love that his first tip on losing weight, is to love yourself and treat yourself with respect, he just seems like a really passionate, sweet guy.
Richard is truly lNCREDIBLE ⭐ Miss him & l hope he will embrace this new movie about his amazing life ❤️
I'm so happy for his weight loss, Richard Simmons is a really up an inspiration for weight loss
I don't know why but watching this video made me want to exercise. But also want to eat Oreos. So I did both! 😝
lol
Rhonda Ouwenga c
Patricia Raposo what?
Eat Oreos on the treadmill! (JK)
@Smile More! That's what I'm talkin' about!
I nearly died laughing at the end when that orange guy fell 😂😂😂😂😂
I laughed at you calling Richard Simmons "that orange guy" haha
😂😂
Lol I don't know his name 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Zehra Jaffry HIs name is Richard Simmons. He's an exercise and fitness guru.
lol thanks :D
I just love Richard Simmons:) Biggest Kindest Heart ever:)
Very nicely done by both of them! I guess becoming conscious of what you eat (by having to document it) and also accountable for it (having to send it to Richard Simmons) was the key here. In addition to actual motivation. One daily routine that I believe can help you become healthier and to lose/maintain weight, is yerba mate tea.
there is only one richard simmons who is a loving caring person to everyone
I snorted out loud when Richard Simmons fell off the couch...
6:56 You never failed to make us laugh and be healthier!! WE MISS YOU RICHARD SIMMONS!!!!!! 🥺❤️🧡
Oh boy, just got done with a hearty laugh after watching Richard Simmons fall to the floor when she gifted her guest with a $5,000 Whole Foods gift card. That reaction was funny.
Wow $5,000 whole foods giftcard! That should take care of 1 and 1/2 visits
GOOD ONE LOLOLOL
LMAO
🤣🤣🤣🤣
It’s shameful how much healthy food costs.
I've been studying the topic of weight loss for about 10 years now (I'm a personal trainer for a living) so I think I can shed some light on the topic.
HOW TO LOSE FAT
1) Cut out carbs in the evenings (eat "low glycemic" carb sources in the day).
2) Choose the exercises that burn the most calories (NOT sit ups and curls). Squats, Lunges, Pull Ups etc. are great examples.
3) Use the software and meal plans from FatLossCustomized. com
4) Perform high intensity interval training.
good job david! i started tearing up
He is a great person. If more people were like him the world would be a better place
I freaking love Richard Simmons!
Richard was a modern day apostle
Richard was around the media landscape for decades! Some of us remember the 80s!
He looks better now! Hes maintaining his weight. wichis great!
He has a little more muscle now and a little less fat.
Richard Simmons is ADORABLE !!
Knowing that his story was shown on the court jester and it's real the story they used is amazing
Richard seems like such a sweet heart I would love to meet him he is always nice to see that there is still selfless people still exist.
Richard Simmons is a angel.
RUSSEL IS SO ADORABLE!!
Most Respect
What a great story. Love Richard, Love Ellen Love the wonderful things they both do for everyday people! xoxoxo to both!
Talk about a glow up! 😍
People criticize Richard Simmons for a mired of reasons but that's fine cause for every troll comment, there's twenty positive ones. God Bless you Richard Simmons
CONGRATULATIONS DAVID!!! that's an amazing accomplishment!
I love Richard Simmons.He's amazing!
he looks so good! well done! he reminds me a bit of mark ruffalo
This made me smile, although I obviosuly don't know you personally, I am really proud of you, I wish you all the best for the future, you are really beautiful! x
I thought it was great! David you did a fantastic job.
his smile is contagious :D
so inspirational!
Man I wish I could meet Richard Simmons, I could really use the help losing weight. I know you need to eat right and exercise I just don't seem to know where to start or how. Exercise is one thing I have started but eating right, I just need someone to tell me do this and do that and you will loose weight. I am 5 feet 1 inch tall and weight 219 pounds, I use to weight 108 that was after 2 kids, but now, I just don't feel like myself and want to get that person back.
Myfitnesspal app can help a lot. I mean there are basic foods that most healthy people eat. Fruits/veggies, oatmeal, eggs, rice, lean meats. There are tons of good CZcams channels that promote healthy living that can help you out. You just have to decide to do it.
That's true, he has a great sense of humor.
woww...that is really inspirational....inspiration to actually so something for yourself
i actually want to gain some weight but just too lazy to even try it...but this guy was so inspirational...love him
Lmao Richard Simmons is amazing!!
i wish there were one of his excersie studios close to me
Aw, I love Richard Simmons.
God bless Richard Simmons
Amazing!
I only need to lose at most 75 lbs and wow!
My issue is being able to get nutritious food, etc. because I live at home... and well, my sister doesn't like fruit, etc. so we barely get it and the only people that like fruit the most in my house is me and my mom... my dad has grapes and oranges on occasion... but the rest of the time, it's crap food.
hey chris, awesome that you want to change something though! i had the same problem (not weight wise, but wanting to eat more healthily nonetheless) but live with my parents who have a different diet (i'm vegetarian and try to buy all organic stuff if possible, whereas my parents eat meat and don't really care whether their fruit or veggies are organic). what i've done is 'claim' one of the shelves in the fridge and told them that that is the shelf where i'll keep MY stuff. so now i'm buying my own food (if you can't afford it yourself, i am sure your parents will give you money for food, i've yet to meet a parent who doesn't want their child to eat healthily) and cooking for myself and i'm much happier :) good luck!
Maryangel24 Well, my parents are tight on money... they just spent over $200 at Walmart buying food.
Well, the problem is my mom wants to eat healthier, but my dad doesn't like eating fruit, etc. except on occasion... I can't tell you how many times we have pork chops, steak, etc. for dinner.
I still consume meat, like bologna, salami, etc.
***** hmmm. but can't she just make pork chops etc. for your dad and then for you guys she just cooks something healthier? when i cook for myself and my family, i make what they like for them and cook something else for myself. it's tough, i hope you can sort it out somehow until you have enough money/are old enough to move out and live the way you want to :)
Maryangel24 Well, my parents grew up with the "you eat what we fix or go without" mentality...
Dude this mite help you out and I'm giving you the way, you see I was 375 lb now three month after I lost 207. Now I weight 163lb. Nt to mention I'm 5'9.
@aapplaudissement can't give this thumbs up but agree. CONGRATULATIONS DAVID!!! Well done!
OMG, Richard Simmons made me laugh so hard! i loved it when he said "Hi Ellen!"
He's actually pretty cute
Missing Richard Simmons brought you here
From a long distance, David looks a bit like Taylor Lautner :D But that's an amazing weight loss!! I'm happy for him :)
woah i used to "work out" to richard simmons work out dvds when i was little. crazy.
Did he faint??
AmaZing story !!! I'm so happy for him. :)
He kinda looks like Taylor Lautner.
TheGreen Rose Idk, he kind of reminds me of Mark Ruffalo a little.
Wow, thats amazing. so inspirational!
Thank you for sharing.
Still losing weight as long as I'mtaking Weight loss green store tea. The effects of not getting hungry a lot seem to be lasting enough to allow 2 days' respite from taking these after about 2 weeks.
+Riri Kolas Great...great, great! I've been searching for the right kind of supplement and finally I've stumbled across this one!
+Mery Hewsa No longer fat because of this. Over the course of just three months of working out and eating fruits and veggies, I lost up to 18 lbs.
starving yourself is not healthy.. and promoting this is sad.
+Elisss In three months you lost 18 pounds? I lost 15 pounds in 2 weeks just by eating right and exercising 30 minutes a day...
+Elisss nice!!
