More quotes by Richard Simmons
I'm not going to be happy until every child in every school is physically active.
Richard Simmons
Truthfully, everyone knows how to eat right. They know the difference between oatmeal and a jelly cream doughnut. They know how to walk. Everyone has this in their brain. When I started, we didn't have all this knowledge. Forty years ago, I lost my weight, but only by watching what I was eating.
Richard Simmons
I never say anything negative about anyone, because that won't get you anywhere.
Richard Simmons
There's a list of foods I can't have in the house. Peanut butter, can't have that in the house. Potato chips, can't have that in the house. Random little small mini candy bars, don't even think about it. I just have to watch everything. I have to stay between 1500 and 1600 calories a day. That's it.
Richard Simmons
I think at the age of 50, everyone should write their own autobiography.
Richard Simmons
I've been offered big money to promote machines. And high-protein diets, when that was really popular. There was always some new powder or diet plan that somebody wanted to put my name on.
Richard Simmons
I really created my career out of my own compulsion. Because I knew if I owned an exercise studio and I had to teach my classes there, I wasn't going to gain my weight back.
Richard Simmons
I have two rules for living in the world. I never say anything negative about anyone, because that won't get you anywhere. And two, if people confront me with certain questions, if they are not right, I will not answer them.
Richard Simmons
When I go to bed, I ask God to give me one more day tomorrow. When I get it, I'm excited and grateful.
Richard Simmons
When you gain weight, for every pound that you gain, it adds four pounds of stress on your knees. So if you gain five pounds, you've got 20 pounds of stress on your knees. So that's why I'm extremely careful with my portions and my workout, because I can't be overweight.
Richard Simmons
I'm like a stuffed toy. You've never met me, but if you did, you'd just want to take me home and put me in your child's room.
Richard Simmons
When I talk to kids who are overweight, I see my face on their bodies.
Richard Simmons
That's what the majority of people in the world do, they walk among the ruins of their life. Things that didn't work out, relationships that went sour, jobs that disappeared. All they can think about is their ruins, and when you focus on that you can't build a new you.
Richard Simmons
But if you pick up every other magazine, it is the peanut butter diet, or the cabbage soup diet, and then you go to the radio and you hear that you can drink some solution and you will lose weight overnight. It just does not work that way!
Richard Simmons
No one can make fun of overweight people in front of me!
Richard Simmons
The real pride, the real present, is your health and your longevity. My whole career, I have never done anything where competition was involved with weight loss.
Richard Simmons
How do you get motivated? By knowing your worth. Americans do not know how worthy they are. You deserve to be healthy, but a lot of times, people have, as childs been told - as a children been told that they're no good, that they're never going to be anything else.
Richard Simmons
If I've got the right songs, I can weave a spell over everyone.
Richard Simmons
My nickname is Dickie Jukebox. I own thousands and thousands and thousands of songs.
Richard Simmons
I don't have a lot to offer one person. I have a lot to offer to a lot of people.
