You need to figure out how to get the masters of your original TV show from KTLA & sell them! Or, license to LOGO! I would LOVE to see a young generation get to see these. Your skits were fabulous comedy. Hmm, Ryan Murphy has the money. He should make this happen!

I need for Tonin Uptown and Tonin Downtown to be out on a DVD. It was the BEST toning workout. If anyone has a vcr and that tape it is awesome. I used it years ago and would love to have it again as I have gained some weight and definitely need to tone. ❤️

I have this set from Amazon. My workouts mainly consist of hiking, surfing, biking, and swimming, but I pull these out on rainy days when I can't be outdoors. You are like a ray of sunshine Richard ❤️

I don't understand why Hulu and Netflix don't have any exercise shows, I'm sure there's a demand for it, wouldn't it be awesome to see these on there?!

Richard I have a really funny story to tell on you. Probably well it was when you're sweatin to the oldies number one had first come out I lived in Wichita Falls Texas and you came there and you were signing people's VCR tapes and I stood in line for I don't know how long waiting for you to sign my VCR tape which I exercise to religiously. when I got to the front of the line and handed you my type you smiled at me as you looked up at me and said "nice tits" and kept right on signing, never missed a beat and I turned around walked off wondering what in the world did he just say and when I realized what you said I just cracked up laughing and that has been a funny story that I have told people over and over and over throughout my lifetime and they all had just gotten a big kick out of it so I wanted to tell you I thank you I love you and I hope you get to feeling better soon. Take care of yourself. You are loved for just who you are by millions. 💕💕💕

I fully recomended all...i use it and work great for me....i start years ago with the number 1 ......is super fun the routine and he is amazing.....im 52 now and everytime i put it on i enjoy it like the first day...God bless you Richard...

Back in the 1980s you visited the Pheasant Lane Mall in Nashua, NH and I begged my mom as a pre-teen to bring me to see you. It must have been 500 people all crowded there, but we were there! Now 40, post baby and in a shape that I never expected to find myself in. No question for me where to find motivation and my old self... Richard. Always Richard. Forever Richard. You should see my three year old grove out to your videos. All worth it.

Many years ago I had a cassette of Richard singing to work out to. The lyrics were so encouraging. I wish I could find a copy or he would put it out again.

Thanks to an uploader on Yt that uploaded 2-4 STTO's, I lost 15 lbs from Mid Aug to Nov, last yr and it still off til this day. 😊🌹(I was 167-9, now 153-51). 🤘😎

Anyone know which dvd is best for someone with arthritis and copd? Lookin for one with 60's music. Where can I get a 3 cd kit for under $20? Thank you. The one I was about to order on Amazon is "currently out of stock" and was going to give it to someone as a gift.

I saw a neon shirt in the store the other day and I had a Richard Simons flashback. I don't see you coming on anyone's shows any more so I hope you're well.

#1 and #3 are my favorites. My two oldest daughters have been doing them with me since they were old enough to walk. Soon the two youngest will be old enough to dance with us.

Can you put groovin on the house on DVD!? I have all of the other ones and that's the only one I'm missing but it isn't out on DVD format yet😩 I have all of the other ones almost memorized and love them so much! LOL

This is good news and I'm hoping Richard is feeling better😀 However I have a question for any R.S fan who has his DVD: what dvd would you suggest for a obese middle-aged woman with lower back pain and painful knees. I'm thinking of something I could do on my own (light impact a must plz) thnx

I would like another SILVER FOXES that is reasonable priced. I don't know how much longer it will last after 40 plus years. I do it 5 days a week. Love you Richard Simmons

Ah man, I remember as a kid finding sweating to the oldies 2 in my moms pile of stuff and falling in love xD not gonna lie, if I had the spare money I'd buy these in a heartbeat

Richard just wanted to let you know that you are on my heart. Where I come from that means I should pray for you... so I am. I hope you find some encouragement and happiness in the day... You have brought so much to others!

Love these i do one everyday. 1 and 5 are my favorite. The best songs to listen to when you exercise and you make it fun to workout with . They make me feel like i am there with everyone .

Makes me smile! I remember the Richard Simmons show, on after Phil Donahue! Always upbeat & fun... you know what's great about some people? They're happy & radiant and can laugh at life and not take themselves or the critics too seriously

Almost bought a few DVDs on Amazon but then checked this website. Not sure I saw the bundle but I did buy them individually and still saved,

I have these and the 5th one... Disco Sweat, dance your pants off, and 2 videos for butt and tummies! Lol now I would just use them! Ugh

Richard, thanks to you & these videos I lost 250+lbs. And have kept it off for 23 years now. All on my own, without surgical help. Thank you for being you & I love and cherish you. <3

Finally had to give up the VHS tapes. Wish all your old workouts were on DVD!

I have and love you have be so helpful as I exercise battling cancer.

Love my sweatin to the oldies been doing it 4 times a week for a month lost 18 lbs thank you Richard xoxo 😍

glad your feeling better richard,when your manager said you had gone to the emergency room i had a flashback to when i was a guest on your show " slim cooking " and how warm and friendly you were and what a special day that was. i dont care if you want to live your life in a hot air balloon, i dont care,😊 im just happy you are living your life! all my love and respect to you and have a great sunday!

You're so sweet, Richard Simmons. As a nurse, these comments really warm my heart. I'm glad you're feeling better. Please take good care of yourself. You are so loved 🙂

We are very thankful for them as they helped our dear friend. We love you. I love you. I hope you are not in pain. I hope you will allow your body to rest, and calm your mind for mending. Don't worry about us.

I'm so glad you're feeling better Richard. You have no idea how many lives you have touched and how much we all love you. Love you, for your support, loving words over the years, and your genuine sweet nature. Please take good care!

Glad you are feeling better! I had a dream about 5 years ago that I was your private duty nurse. You lived around the corner from me and I was knocking at your door to go in. Just so you know people are keeping you in their thought!(Even the subliminal ones) 💙

You have taken care of soo many peoples needs. Now... its time to chill and take care of yourself... You owe it to you..and only you. Hugs.....

So happy your feeling better! As a Nurse in NH I appreciate your appreciation. Also, I was disgusted with the media who waited outside your home. You have been such a positive influence on so many-you deserve better than to be stalked and publicized that way. Stay strong and be well!

Everyone wishes you well Richard. I hope you'll be ready for company soon. We miss you. All the best. I met you in Crystal River Florida in 1993. Thanks for everything.

As a nurse myself Richard Simmons..I thank you and please take better care of you..you mean so much to so many…Know that you are loved for you and not what you do for people…Be well!!

Richard, I am probably not your typical fan I don't have weight issues or anything like that, I have watched you since I was a little kid, half the time I just thought you were funny, but when I heard that you haven't been seen in a while I realized how much of a inspiration you have been to me, weather or not you choose to go back into the public eye is your choice, I am just glad your ok your personality and energy helped me alot in life thank you!!!

I love you. You made such a difference in my life. There were days when life was just too hard. Then I would put on Sweatin'to the Oldies, and things were better. I wish for you joy and love.

So like you to acknowledge others in such a compassionate way. I really hope you realize the multitudes of those you helped and were kind to acknowledge you as well! Love Ya, Good Buddy, and Here's to Healthy Healing for You!!

So very glad that you are feeling a bit better Richard Simmons! I am a forever fan of yours! Please continue to take good care of yourself and be at peace with all circumstances. You are such a loving person!

My thoughts and prayers are with you, Richard Simmons as you continue your recovery at home. There's no place like home!! I pray whatever makes you happy in your future....you are to freely do it without the paparazzi in your face every move you make---althouth getting the first picture of you would make them bookoo bucks. I suppose if you had announced 3 years ago that you were taking a sabbatical from your celebrityness....they wouldn't be hounding you and surrounding your home----such an invasion of your privacy. Be well, be happy, be in peace.

I spent a few days at a hospital in Michigan...Troy Beaumont. They were the most wonderful Dr's, Nurses, and all who work there that anyone could ask for. I have pneumonia and they made my stay sooo comfortable. Glad you are home and feeling better Richard! Love you!

Glad you are home. Hope you are feeling better. Thank you for the nice statement about the medical professionals, police, firefighters, and military. I am a nurse and think that was very kind of you.❤

it IS a glorious Sunday here in Greater H-town(Houston to ya'll)! thanks for the kind words to the police/fire/medical professionals-being a surgical technologist is hard on the feet and hands, but we do it all for the patients! glad you're feeling better

Don't let anyone tell you how to live your life. Seems you have done a terrific job so far Richard! You have helped probably millions of people now its time to take a little time for yourself. Enjoy it

Hope you are feeling better. You are such an inspiration and motivator. I have followed your efforts to make phy ed mandatory in schools. I hope people allow you the privacy you are entitled to when you wish for it. Thank you for all you give for the healthy living cause.

I m glad you got help when you wern't feeling well. Please take care of you. I never got to meet you in person, but i wrote to you about a friend and you reached out to her with a phone call. I've worked with the vids you put out..not sure what i've done wrong but i never lost weight. Still working on it. You are an incredible person. God bless you ! And the Emergency personal who took care of you.

Hope you are doing better, Richard. The world looks up to you because you were the first to instill good health comes from good eating. I remember reading your book, "Never Say Diet" when I had just given birth to my son and had gained 45 pounds. Sending you love and light and quick healing!

Trust you are feeling better Richard, take care and don't rush your recovery. Thank you to all those that watch out and care for the public; so often we depend on you when we are under stress and fail to say Thank You with a hug 🤗.

Hope you are much better. I had the privilege of working out with you onstage years ago at the 50 Plus Convention in Seattle. My dad was a proud member of the L.A.P.D. and I thank you for your kind words about them.

Richard, the moment you entered the public arena, you became our 'brothah from anothah Mothah'; so when YOU go through something....WE go through it WITH you. You are soooooo loved to a depth you'll never comprehend. And while we're not involved in your daily life....we care about you....what happens to you....and want only the best for you. God bless you for dedicating your life to others SO SELFLESSLY! Thank you for rescuing us and bringing sunshine and purpose to our lives. A world without Richard Simmons is a world we wouldn't want to live in. God bless you all the days of your life. May you know the peace, happiness, serenity, love and joy you so 'RICH'ly 😉 deserve. You're never alone, got that? You're never alone. <3 <3 <3 XOXOXOXOX Love & Tons of Hugs! ^_^

Mr. Richard, You are so sweet and so kind! Everyone is glad you are doing Great!!!! Hope you have a super week!!!...from Mrs. Tom(I piggy back my husband's account) from Seattle. Take care now!....:)

You have offered unconditional love and support to so many, don't be afraid to accept some of that in return. There are a lot of people who would not think twice to lift you up in the way you did for them. Best wishes. <3

Please know that we respect your right to privacy and your right to rest and heal. You are so very loved!! May your life be blessed with peace and wellness. XO

Who knows if you'll read this. I grew up with your personality always on television, helping people with your work and taking jokes with stride on all of the talk shows. I've never had weight issues, but as a little effeminate boy I appreciated and respect that you have always been yourself in front of the world. You're a part of my childhood. Thank you, Mr. Simmons.

Richard, Feeling so lucky that I had the pleasure of exercising with you at the AARP Convention in Boston. Be well and continue to look after yourself. Good thoughts and prayers are with you.

You are an inspiration and a hero! Your desire for privacy has confirmed that you are human,and that makes you more beautiful. Continue to believe in yourself as you inspire us all to believe in ourselves!

Take Care of youself. It's your turn. You have brought so much love and happiness to so many people and you will never be forgotten for it. God Bless You with lots of hugs and prayers. Please keep us posted.

Love you sweet friend!❤️❤️

Sending you all the love and light in the world. You're an inspiration, Richard. ✨💕

Glad to hear you are feeling better. And pay the media no mind-- You absolutely do NOT have to apologize for taking some time for yourself. Thank you for inspiring and uplifting so many people for so many years, and God bless you always!

Dearest Richard, I'm never sick of hearing about you. I'll never get sick of hearing from you either. I honor your decisions and respect your choices. I care for you deeply, we've never met or corresponded, but my life has been enriched and changed by you. At some low points in my life, it was you smiling and sweating, telling me I was somebody worthy of love and care, you kept me going. Thank you Richard, my friend I never met. You keep going too. Sending love, Sheila.

Dear Richard Simmons I hope you read this yourself or it gets to you somehow. I want to let you know you have been an inspiration to me growing up. You had such a bright light sincere looking embraces for everyone you helped in their fitness journey. I used to watch you on television normally morning shows and you would just make me laugh, cry and just be happy even for just a few moments. Even as I write this after having chomped down two Dunkin donuts (plain hee hee), a coca cola and Doritos I feel horrible lol not really (I will get it together seriously). Yet I think about your workouts. You have been such an inspiration to soooo many and to have people at this stage still love you and consider you relevant that's a blessing. Please don't dim your light and fight on we need more people like you in this world. Democrat, Republican, black, white all I know is I loved your spirit and it seemed geniune. Blessings to you Richard and in case no one told you today....you are loved.

Met you in New Orleans a few years ago! This is framed in our New Orleans home! Always a conversation piece! Hope you're feeling better. Come back home!

You have given unconditionally to so many. Being famous isn't easy to deal with. If you decide to go back out into the public again, take your time to feel the love coming your way. Take your time and do things your way. Hope to see a big beautiful smile on your sweet face again.

Take your time. Rest up. Just try to pop in on facebook occasionally and let your fans know how you're doing. You've cared about and helped improve the lives of many people, and we care about your health and well being! You truly are a treasure to people on this planet. Best wishes and hope you're feeling yourself soon

I can only imagine how difficult it must be to feel "on" all the time in the public eye..please know your true fans have a deeper love for you filled with appreciation for the way you have touched them...know that we understand that it's time for us to be here for you..sending my love to a great man that did everything to help people get healthy. Take care #cheerylifesaver

Don't feel that you have to explain anything to us, Richard. You are given a lifetime exemption stamped with love that is reciprocated back to you from all the years that you've given to us. Stay happy, stay healthy -- stay blessed.

I've been a groupie since the 1980's....... I'm looking for more years of your encouragement.... there have been times in my llife your. Videos were the only thing encouraging me. Thank you for all oof that and I hope you are better soon... ((hugs))

Richard you have done and given so much to others, its time for you now to care for yourself. We will be here waiting for you with open arms Let us all care for you now. I could write a book about my life and guaranteed it would be a best seller the stuff I have been through and still do. I try to remain positive throughout it all some days are better than others. You are in my prayers and please don't forget all those who love you to the moon and back

So happy to hear you're doing well. Your message hit home for me. I had polio when I was 5 weeks old and I was raised to figure things out myself so now that I use a wheelchair I need more help but find it difficult to reach out. I feel it would burden others. Thank you for caring about all of us and keep getting back to yourself.

Good to hear you are feeling better Richard .. I remember how incredibly compassionate you were to me when I was going through a surgery .. I hope you are receiving that same kindness and compassion .. love you endlessly

It's difficult to feel "worthy" when we are sick or need help. I've been dealing with this too. You deserve our thanks and love for all your loving service to mankind. I will never ever forget receiving a personal message of inspiration from you one day. How can I/we help you? Keep up the good fight!!

Thanks for being you and that's enough in my book I have loved your loving and caring soul for years.Yes we all need a little help sometimes after all isn't that what makes you the great man you are thats what friends are all about! Take care sweet friend and God Bless You

Personally I can't stand exercise. I have never watched one of your videos. But I respect you for your work. You have my concern when you disappear from the spotlight. I guess I kinda care about you and not for what you have done for me. Your an excellent example of how to love. Be cool man.

You have inspired and motivated so many of us, it is now our turn to inspire and motivate you. You are loved, my dear Richard, because you are a bright light in an otherwise very murky time. You have brought cheers and laughter, you have shown love and compassion, you have touched countless others with your warmth and realness...all the while never taking yourself so seriously and being true. You are an angel. I am sending you tons of positive vibes, a bunch of love and a whole slew of good mojo so that you may have a speedy recovery. We have missed you...and can't wait to see you up and around again. Til then, my good man, get plenty of rest and drink plenty of fluids...we will be right here waiting for you.

Everyone needs time to heal and take care of themselves. I have loved you since I started teaching fitness 33 years ago. Many of my clients are your clients. Take time for yourself... one of the things you have done for people is EMPOWERED them to stand up for themselves and have the confidence to go forward, without you. I love you.... and ALL that you have done for the fitness world. Pilates by Teresa You are my hero, regardless of anything else in your life, good or bad, there is nothing that would change my opinion of you.

I am from New Orleans and I just wanted to say you are an angel so sweet with so much love and compassion in you I am not over weight but you help with confidence and self esteem because you are so real you are like me a lot of love in your heart and care for everyone much love to you and hope to see you on tv and out and about soon best regards Richard Simmons I will keep in touch God bless you

You're so awesome Richard. You've saved so many lives and given so many hope when they had none. You don't owe anyone anything! If we could all be like you....this world would be so much better!

I was on Twitter with Jean Stapleton and she was so cute.She used the word 'doll', as ni 'lthank you, doll'. I think you're a doll, as in the 50's. So thanks doll for all you've done for everyone. Love you much!

I grew up watching Richard Simmons I think he was awesome I hope he makes a comeback prayers and thoughts go out to Richard Simmons from me

Love it!

Oh man, I will you had some in a small, that's ok

Hi Richard...Love Ya

I LOVE RICHARD SINCE 1978 ❤MY SUNSHINE❤

💜

Thoughts and prayers are with you keeping you safe and sound. You are very missed but understanding goes out to you that everyone in life needs " time out" for themselves. You of all people who as given so much of themselves deserves this. So many years ago you were a lifeline for me and my friends at both Slimmons and the Anatomy Asylum you made it such a safe place for we ladies thar were not of the world's normal size. We will always be grateful to you for that! Be well and safe. Love goes out to you!

My hope is that you are planning some fabulous re-emergence for your 70th birthday. Wanting some quiet in your life is totally understandable, but so many of us love and miss you. I pray you are able to find the balance you seek.

You needed a break, it's YOUR life and do what YOU want. You've given so much and it was an honour to meet you many years ago

Richard - I guess you can say that you were my "first" group exercise instructor when I started doing your Sweatin' to the Oldies tapes when I was 13, and then later on "Blast Off the Pounds". In my late teens/early 20s I started taking group exercise classes at local gyms and now I am a group exercise instructor! My journey started with you; I never would have got into fitness if it wasn't for your tapes. Thank you Richard Simmons! My dream was to someday take one of your classes. I hope someday that will be a possibility, even if it's not for a long time. Take care of yourself! 💖

I fully understand your need for wanting to keep a low profile these days. I only wish you would give an interview explaining what brought you to this point in your life. Everyone would respect your need for alone time. You have given so much of yourself through the years to so many people and we love and miss you

I want to buy this issue. Hey Richard. Wishing you the best. Miss 😘 seeing you, but you deserve time for yourself. I will always be grateful to you. Wishing you a beautiful 🌇 day. Be happy and take care of yourself. 😀👍

I read upon it so much talk. Hey u wanna dissappear step back from all the paparattzi take some quiet time go for it. Do what u want nobodys business as long as you are ok thats great!

I hope you are enjoying some much deserved rest and relaxation!!! Of course everyone loves and misses you like crazy but we understand that we all need 'me' time. Wishing you the BEST!!! ❤❤❤❤❤

I guess it is against the law for a person to take a break. and relax n enjoy life..tell all of them to bite you!!! lol lol

Thank you Richard for all your hard work, and your caring big heart. You have helped millions of people fight the battle of obesity. I have met you two times in Saugus, Ma., I have read your book, and bought your dial a meal plan, and followed you on tv many years ago. We love you, and God Bless you Richard! Take this time for you, you deserve it. Richard, just remember that you are a wonderful person.

You have given so much love now take time for yourself.. I would have never made it through life without you. You always hit the spot that I needed to forgive myself for always feeling of no value. You my friend showed me someone did care. I am forever grateful ...I look back on those times. You helped me through the loss of my husband (by the way he loved you as much as I did. He always said anyone that could do as much for the mental state of his wife that you did, you just have to care about them also) The cruises were wonderful and I draw off them constantly. Thank you Richard now do what is best for you at this time in your life. Thank you for your wonderful memories you gave us. Always loved the stories of Shirley....

After everything that you have done for so many people, I think it's perfectly acceptable that you take some time to do for yourself. A lot of us, your fans, miss you but know that we're all here for you waiting for your return, if you choose to come back to the spotlight and brighten our days. But even if you don't, know that we all care about you and we're happy that you're happy taking time out for yourself. 😊

your fans care about you....and want to make sure you are ok.....if there are personal issues you are dealing with, please get help....Dr. Phil would be there in a minute for you, but don't let him turn you in a special for him......hope God gives you the strength to face each day being stronger than the day before....

He always made me feel good about life and myself because of his kind heart and sunny disposition. Hopefully he realizes how much love he has contributed to this often cruel world.Hugs and love to a wonderful man!!! Live it up Richard and do whatever YOU love doing at this stage of the game!!!

Richard, I wish people would just let you live your life. You have helped and encouraged so many people. I understand that they are mostly concerned, but there comes a time when a person just needs to be left alone. It is time for we who have taken to give back. Sending you good vibes and best wishes to be happy and to just enjoy your privacy...

Hope you're well, Richard. You brought so much joy to the world - hope you saved a little for yourself. I have nothing but respect for you. Salute!

You are very much loved, Richard! I understand completely your wanting to step back and make time for yourself. You have done so much for others over the years. I just hope you take care of yourself, and if possible, let us hear from you, every so often. Lots of love to you!

I just read the article and googled you, I am happy to see you are connected on facebook. You popped into my head the other day , now I am wondering if I heard something on the radio. My son is in LA, and I was thinking, it would be awesome if he could be like you and make people laugh and feel good. Hope you are doing what makes you happy:)

My thoughts and prayers to you because once upon a time you gave them to me. You spent selfless years helping and doing for others, you have more than earned some 'me' time. Everyone is allowed to retire!!!!! Don't let 'em get you down!!!!!

I totally respect you taking time to yourself and living a quiet life for a change. Apparently some people are worried about you. I know it isn't what you want, but perhaps if you did a live video just to stop all the rumor nonsense, it might help you in your quest for solitude.

I just finished reading this. It's wonderful to know that you are doing well. It's totally understandable that you needed some time for yourself. Never forget that you are so loved and appreciated by a lot of people. You've inspired and helped so many! I will continue to keep you in my prayers. You are truly missed!

I love it!! You are amazing. The last few days I thought about how much your were in the public. It was a ton!! All the time. You rest and take time then come back to us occasionally. ❤️❤️. I think you are the most loved man in America!

I miss Richard's emails encouraging me about my weight. Yes Richard take as long as you want for your time for yourself. You've deserved it after all these years helping other people.. Take time for yourself now!! Love you Richard !!

Your wonderful talents have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — your wit, charm, looks, physique, humor, style — just know that you are missed and loved dearly!

I can't believe that people actually think they are owed an explanation from him. I think it's gracious that he offered one. 💘

We love u 2, Dicky! 😘

Richard, I have several of your guest spots taped and when my brother died just right after Christmas this past year I took out the VHS tapes and watched you! Your love for others reminded me so much of my brother. You have always made me smile! Sending you much peace and comfort, love and prayers!

I send you love Richard. You have helped so many. It hurts me that the media won't stop speculating about you. Keeping you in my prayers and sending big hugs. Sweatin to the oldies is my fav.

I do, 5 of them! Right now we are debating who gets to be the new owner of this treasure from our grandmother's cookbook collection! Maybe you can help us out Richard by picking a name??? Elizabeth Anderson Savage, Margaret Anderson Burd, Monica Tice, Charley Anderson, Katherine Paradis or Mary Anderson xoxo

Very sweet. My middle son is called Bubba because his older brother was only 14 months when he was born and couldn't say brother. So Bubba it was and it stuck 🙂

AWESOME, Richard, that your older brother is there for you!! My only sibling, older brother, died of Leukemia close to 10 yrs ago. It definitely leave a gap, so you all enjoy.what you can, when you can, for as long as you can!! Much love to you!

I love you Richard!! I came to one of your exercise deals in Tulsa Oklahoma years ago, but I was on crutches and had my foot in a cast because I broke my foot. I wasn't able to do the exercises with you but I never will forget you reach through the crowd of ladies trying to literally pull you apart and gave me a big kiss right on the lips! Sure wish you would come back to Tulsa Oklahoma, you better believe I would be there!

I remember when he got up and danced with you on the cruise to lose. It was so cute! He got all embarrassed. Very beautiful people! ❤

I am so glad you have a big brother in your corner. You have given so much to others, its no ones business if you want to take time for yourself! Be well, be happy, and thank you for all you have done.

It must be sooo difficult to be loved by soo many yet not trusting most People. I know how you feel. XXXX. I have a picture of you hugging my daughter once. I think I have another one where you were kissing her cheek. She was always very shy. She's a beautiful girl. I'll have to post it to your wall some day. You made her smile!! Jesus loves you!

That's great. I was blessed with six brothers. I was right in the middle! No sisters though. I lost two sadly, when they were only in their 30's😞. A sadness that never leaves. I used to pray that I'd be the first one to "go" because I knew I couldn't bare it if any one of them went before me..... But.....I've learned we are born, we live, and we die. We just have to make the most of the time we have together. I could use another brother, if your interested....😘.

I can't thank you enough for being my lifel line as a teenager in a cruel society in the 80's. You played a key part in what kept me going through all those trials and tribulence that being morbidly obese people brings with it. I really hope and send you really good vibes in this time you're taking to rest. If your longtime friend, confidant, and manager says you're ok, I completely believe him. Good for you for having really good people around you. Love you and appreciate you. Thank you. <3

Treasure him. I am your age. I lost my big brother day after Thanksgiving 2015... talked to him daily the last 2 year's of his life. He was ill for sometime. Folks died when I was 16 one, other when I was 19.. No brother is very hard. Very, very hard. You are blessed to have yours. God bless you both. Love you, Richard. Xo

We're all wishing you the best . How you helped so many people.. I got the chance to see you 2 times, once on Ellen show and in Palm Springs festival with my partner

No, unfortunately. I have a younger brother who was born after I went into foster care, that I didn't know about until after he was put up for adoption. I have no other siblings.

My brother and sister are already gone..miss them terribly...stay close to yours...love you and miss seeing you...take care

I've always wanted a brother. A sister even, in fact. Really, even just a father, and a mother who wasn't a childhood nightmare of a loose woman. Your'e luckier than you may even know, but you deserve it.

A few years ago my husband and I took a trip to New Orleans. The ONLY thing that I was truly excited about was hearing the tour guide say, "And this is where fitness guru Richard Simmons lived" as we passed by your home. I actually cried. Love you Richard!

It is so good to hear from you again, Richard. So many people love you, so many of us worry, even if we don't know you. God bless you and thank you for all you have meant to so many.

Mr. Simmons, you've always been an adorable light in the darkness. You are loveable and loved. An American institution and an unforgettable inspiration! Thanks for being you.

My two eldest sons are 18 months apart, and the younger one always called the older one "Dawoo"...brothers are interesting.

Richard, I will say prayers for you as you re-boot your life. Some times we just need a fresh start. It's time for Richard now. I hope you find what you are looking for.

Just wanted to say thank you for all your inspiration, humility, and love that you exude, and have for all these years, I also have fought with obesity and have found exactly what you did. Portion control , eat a salad every day and some fruit and veggies. Drink a lot of water, and MOVE! Anytime you try some diet that eleminates a lot of other stuff ... we fail. I do try to limit my intact of white stuff. Sugar , salt and white flour. I dont try and emliminate the junk that I love even if its bad for me. I just limit it. Every time I say that i will "never eat ______ again" . I crave that thing. So i just limit it. Anyway i just wanted to tell you thank you and send you my love and admiration .

We love you Richard, be happy and thanks for caring, we all care about you very much. You not your famie, your persona just you the person.

I hope you know there are lots of people out here who want nothing from you, except for you to be happy.

Picture of my mom and Richard back in the early 90s 👍🏼

So great to hear from you, Richard! I respect your decision to take a break and hope you are in good health!

Happy St. Patrick's Day back atcha, Richard! 😀 Blessings to you for a wonderful day. I hope you're feeling well and taking care of your knees too, and speaking ultra greatness, I think you're the bee's knees. 😉

<3 Richard Simmons, I had a memory pop up today from last year where I was talking about you. I said I really like you, and think you are a very kind-hearted and compassionate soul and that I hoped that you were genuinely okay. I told my kids to get me a DVD for Mother's Day.

Same to you Richard. You are an inspiration to all. Wishing you health and happiness

And to you Richard. Hope all is well I hate the News Most times they say 1/2 Truths and it's just not nice. After 6 cruises with you sometimes you just want to be alone. Feel good be happy and spring will be here soon.❤️🙏

Richard what happened ??? We were FB Friends and now we are not.

To you as well sir, years ago as as teen I was too scared to wave to you! May you be blessed! Happiness!

I honestly love you Richard. You have always encouraged me to not quit. Please don't stop helping people with your positive attitude. People really miss your lovely face and enthusiasm.

I have had some of these since I was in junior high- love them. I've always appreciated the fact that he has all shapes n sizes of folks exercising. Very inspiring

Hey Richard, my small community did a mock fitness play, for a benefit, about six years ago. I got to play you lol. I have it on DVD. Pretty funny lol. Wish you well xo

I just did this for the first time. I am very out of shape so I had to just march in place and catch my breath several times but I was able to do it. When I first decided to start working out again I knew that most work out programs are made for people that are already in better shape than I am. I am so glad I remembered your workouts.

Lacy Katie when I return from Nashville we are seriously going to have to have this party and I am really going to have to reach out to Richard for help

Me and my Mother just finished Sweating to the oldies...We are excited about this!! My Mom is 65 and has lost 10 lbs in 4 weeks. Slower is better. WE LOVE YOU RICHARD!!💖💖

Hey I have this one! I have the entire collection. Got it from my mother in law one year! It was the anniversary edition.

Can you get any of these on the Apple TV I want then but don't own a DVD player anymore loved doing these with my mom when I was younger

We miss you Richard! You inspired me to exercise after my daughter was born. I use to love working out with you! Please come back to us!

Richard Simmons I genuinely love this series. I need to get back into it, because it is the only exercise program that I have found which does not trigger an asthma attack. It's so much fun, too.

Love you and all your workouts! Sure wish your Step & Sweat video would be re-released on DVD or in digital form online someday.......it is still the BEST simple, yet effective step workout around and is encouraging and fun! <3

Casey Janowski Sonia Provo Rife ladies dancing night before drinks soon?!?! I'm getting this for myself for my birthday!

I wouldn't be where I'm at today without your help. I shed off 50 lbs dancing to the oldies when I was twelve because of bullying. You made me strong, healthy, and happy...Thank you Richard Simmons💞

Mr. Simmons my name is Randy Adra I want you to know that I have tried your sweating to the oldies workout videos and so far they have worked I went form 350 lbs to 306 lbs and I am still going strong I am also on facebook please send me a comment as well

I wish more than anything that you would release your 20 Minute Blast Off video that came with the Food Mover kit on DVD! I loved that little work out video! My VHS tape tore up after many years of playing it 😭

have it..need the classical stretch and Latin tapes to formats to dvd..tired of buying worn out vhs to replace my worn out vhs tapes

I grew up doing your workouts with my mom and I have always absolutely loved you and your workouts! They were always so much fun!

80's music is the best and most fun to dance to! I have one of your old tapes with some 60's-70's music and it is so much fun too!

I bought a copy and some rings. I need to drop my 15 pound winter fluff. I will be partying off the pounds with you in the near future!

I loved your show in th 70's! And of course all your tapes are the best ever. They really help my depression! You should watch them! hehe

I wish you'd put Stretching to the Classics on DVD. I loved it as a VHS tape.

Will you have the "old" walking tapes available? I would love to get a download for the "walk across America" on my ipod

Morgan do you have this? My way of partying seems to keep the pounds on.

I need this❤ I have all vhs and can't play them anymore. I need dvds!!!!!

Lacy Katie can we please buy this and have a party off the pounds party?
