my brother has to go on diets to gain weight, he's 20 and he weighs 120, he's very very small for his age. He uses this stuff like on South Park called Weight Gain 9000 or somthing like that. You can get that stuff at GNC.

I myself have lost 2 pounds in the last 3 days just by playing DDR and drinking lots and lots and lots of water. At least a gallon a day. Oh, and i can do 5 footers now on light!!! Gotta start somewhere! It's funny when people that have never played before will watch me play and they're like "Wow, you're really good" even though im not. It's nice, but it makes me want to practice more

hehe

It's great to see DDR (and therefore video games) getting more good publicity. Unfortunately, the audio on that video is a bit screwed up, so I found it a bit unwatchable. Too bad.

Thats me in the video, I'm the one they interviewed. I'm surprised it became as big a deal as it was, I just expected it to be a little interview. Also unfortunately I didnt get the metal pads that RedOctane said they would since they interviewed me before they shipped they were shipped out...They offered other interview stuff but i didnt enjoy it so dont think a day or more of my time is worth a pad...oh well. At least my story is reaching the public and can hopefully help people.

i love seeing people of all sizes/shapes/ages playing DDR. the thing that i have the biggest problem with is people playing without shoes on. i don't want to slip on the pad while i am playing because the person before me had sweaty feet, OR if you do that, at least wipe the pads off after!!!!
