Description
Richard Simmons discusses his book, “Never-Say-Diet Book.” He begins by explaining that he lost 123 lbs in 3 months. He describes his talk show, and how coworkers and friends suggest topics to cover. He says he enjoys writing in his bathtub, and had no problem writing a book without formal training in writing. The book is divided into two parts: his personal weight loss story, and a diet plan that other people can follow. Simmons discusses how he teaches classes at his gym in Beverly Hills, CA. He ends the interview by advising that people should have good posture while sitting or reading. There are tracking problems throughout the interview.
