Richard Simmons Clears The Air After His Cryptic 'I Am Dying' Post Alarms Fans

I have some news to tell you. Please don\u2019t be sad. I am \u2026.dying. Oh I can see your faces now. The truth is we all are dying. Every day we live we are getting closer to our death. \n\nWhy am I telling you this?

Because I want you to enjoy your life to the fullest every single day. Get up in the morning and look at the sky\u2026 count your blessings and enjoy.

Start with a healthy breakfast. Do you like oatmeal\u2026. Whole wheat toast ..eggs once or twice a week Fresh fruit or half of an English muffin? \n\nThen there is lunch. How about a nice salad? Don\u2019t eat your dinner too late. Combine your protein with a starch and a few vegetables.

And sure, once in a while, have dessert. One healthy day of eating will lead to the next\u2026and the next. \n\nEvery day that you are alive you have got to move. Whether it is standing or sitting you have got move your body every day. Start with stretching then cardio and strength.

I have a lot of workout videos on YouTube that you can use. Or maybe you have some videos at home. And before you go to bed do a little stretching. Stretch your neck. Your shoulders\u2026.and your arms\u2026and dont forget your legs. Do some circles with your ankles.
