I was feeling hopeless that I could ever feel good about my body again
“Hi Jill,
“Thank you so much for the gift of Oxycise!
“I want to tell you about my results. I have worked really hard and have lost a lot of weight in the past few years, but I have been feeling really downhearted about my body, because no matter how well I ate, or how many vitamins I took, or how much I exercised, my skin was so loose, and my body shape just wasn’t satisfactory.
“I am 45, and so the signs of aging combined with a large weight loss had left my body looking old, my skin really loose and without much tone. It was depressing to have finally lost so much weight, and yet to feel so bad about my body still. It was very depressing! I was feeling pretty hopeless that I could ever feel good about my body again…which is not the way one wants to feel after working so hard to lose weight! I had 20 more pounds I wanted to lose, but didn’t even want to do it, because I knew it meant I would feel worse about my body than I did before!
“I started doing Oxycise!, and even doing it only once a day, and not all that wholeheartedly and not all that often, I began to notice my body starting to firm up in some of the really loose areas. Then, I visited your website and got totally inspired. I read every single success story and decided to really go ‘all the way’ with Oxycise! Just two weeks ago, I began doing O twice a day, Level 1 in the morning and Level 2 after work. I also began to REALLY do the basic breath, I mean really doing it with gusto, and giving it all I’ve got.
“What has happened in the last two weeks has been nothing short of astounding. My skin is firming up and getting toned and tightened. I cannot believe how rosy my complexion is, and how much my body is toning and tightening and firming up! I have lost about 5 more pounds, and have gone down 2 pants sizes in 2 weeks, just from my body tightening up so much. My cellulite is going away! This is cellulite I’ve had for over 20 years, that NOTHING would touch! And now it is just melting off me! My skin isn’t drooping anymore! The bags under my eyes have gone away, and I swear that even some wrinkles I was getting on my face are disappearing. The whites of my eyes are so much whiter. My body is getting re-proportioned. I am watching it change shape before my eyes on a daily basis…I can’t believe it!
“I also sleep better, have less stress and anxiety, am much happier all day, have a huge increase in endurance, have no more headaches, and have been able to go off some medications I was taking…I don’t need them anymore! I also notice that when I go fitness walking, I have absolutely no stiffness like I used to, and I can walk much farther with no exertion at all. My fitness level is definitely far above what it was before, even when I was doing hours of step aerobics and other kinds of exercise. Now, all I do is Oxycise!, twice a day, and some walking, and I am in 1000% better shape than I was when doing all those other forms of exercise that took so much more time to do!
“To say that I am sold on Oxycise! is the understatement of the millennium. I can’t tell you how happy I feel to finally know I have a tool to change my body and make it more youthful and beautiful and healthy, especially as I age. It truly is astounding the changes in my body over the past few weeks. I am so excited to see more changes that I know are on the way. It feels so good to know that I can finally have a toned body that I can feel good about, even at my age, and after having lost so much weight.
“Jill, thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for sharing your discovery with us. I will always be eternally grateful to you!”
If I feel this good at 75 then anyone can do it and succeed
“Jill,
“I’m totally blown away. It’s been just under 2 weeks that I’ve been doing the Oxycise! program, and already 4 pounds and 2 inches around my belly are gone! My whole goal was to fit comfortably in my jeans, and already there is such a difference! 3 years ago I managed to lose close to 30 pounds just by changing some eating habits, but I also lost a lot of muscle as well. I got all excited and bought a bunch of 32 jeans since the 33’s I had were falling off.
“Well, it didn’t take long for those pounds to come back with a vengeance. I was so incredibly disheartened, which is how I’ve been for the past 2 years…beating myself up for gaining the weight back. I’m a pretty sedentary person, spending most of my time sitting behind a computer screen, so I knew I’d never stick with a rigorous exercise program, but the Oxycise! system appealed to me, so finally after tossing it around for about 4 months, I ordered the system for my wife and I.
“Which brings me to my 2 inches lost. But it’s not just that! I actually have biceps again! AND, there is abdominal definition where there has NEVER been before. I’m totally sold on the system. While I stumbled around for the first 2 days trying to get all the moves coordinated, by the 3rd day, I had it down and it’s just great! I find my lung capacity and endurance during physical activity has increased dramatically. I can’t imagine how things will be in 2 MORE weeks! I’ll definitely be referring all the ‘tough cases’ in my life to Oxycise! I wouldn’t call it a walk in the park – it’s real work! But it sure beats anything else I’ve ever tried! I don’t have to leave home, I can do it anywhere, anytime, and I do feel really good afterward!
“…Thanks for a stellar program! So happy I stumbled onto it!”
Bob Doyle
Update from Bob:
“Hi Jill:
“Thanks for doing the exercises every day with me. I do them on the video with you and it has turned out to be the best thing I have done for myself.
“I started the Oxycise! program I think about last January 2004. I really didn’t think it would work, I thought I was too old. Age was my problem. I was tired and run down and felt just plain lousy. I was about 50 pounds overweight and was wearing a tight 44 pants. …I saw an add for the Oxycise! program and decided it was time to stop and try and do something. I thought I was too old to do the weight thing.
“Much to my surprise I started and I felt a lot better after the first week. My breathing was good and my energy level was on the rise. In fact I fired the lawn man and am now doing all of the yard work and singing again in Church, and the breath is good. I have so many rewards for doing your program I can’t believe them all. I am contemplating going for the next level as I feel so good on this one and am able to do them at the right speeds with you on the video. Well I have lost 50+ pounds and have lost 6 sizes and have the energy of being about 20 years younger. Thanks again for the program and believe me, if I feel this good at 75 then anyone can do it and succeed. May God bless you and yours and may America join in to fitness.”
I tell people about it all the time!
Janie began getting healthy and losing weight using a combination of aerobics, strength training and healthy eating. She had already lost 85-95 pounds when she discovered Oxycise! and has since made Oxycise! an integral part of her fitness routine, losing an additional 80-90 pounds.
“I have lost 175 pounds now and Oxycise! has been an important part of my routine for over a year. I tell people about it all the time! It literally changed my workouts. It increased my endurance for aerobic capacity. It also puts me in a better mood and motivates me to work out longer.
“I really do view Oxycise! as an essential component of my fitness routine. There are also times that I just do the breathing but not the stretches. I’ve done that for periods of more than an hour before and have come away with a genuine sense of euphoria. It clears my head like nothing else.
Beginning Statistics: Weight – 400, Size – 52/54
Before Starting Oxycise!: Weight – 305-315, Size 30/32
“In total, I have lost 24″ off my hips, 16″ off my waist, 15″ off my bust, 15″ off my chest (ribcage), 14″ off each thigh and 6″ off of my upper arms. I am now a size 20 (about a 16 on top) and I weigh just about 220. My goal is to be about a size 14 then we’ll see from there. Don’t know what my weight will be, since I’m pretty muscular now.”
UPDATE: Janie lost an ADDITIONAL 45 pounds!
My arms are no longer flabby, the muscles around my middle are strong, even my dumpy legs are slimmer
“When I ordered the Oxycise! videos I had just turned 40 and was about 20 lbs overweight. I am the kind who always ate whatever I liked and burned it all off, except I guess I didn’t quite burn it off and those 20 lbs crept up on me very gradually, over two pregnancies and 8 years of motherhood.
“One of the first changes I noticed with Oxycise! was that I could bike up the long, steep hill to my house without feeling like my lungs were going to explode. I could also run with my kids and not be out of breath after 10 paces. My body changed gradually – so gradually it sometimes seemed like nothing was happening.
“Now, close to a year later, I look back and I am soooo glad I kept at it. My weight is back to what it was when I was 20. My arms are no longer flabby, the muscles around my middle are strong, even my dumpy legs are slimmer. But most of all, doing Oxycise! has taught me how sticking with what seems like a small thing can make a big difference over time, and that it is possible to change your body and your life for the better if you do it little by little but persistently. If the first year has been this good, I am really looking forward to what Oxycise! will do for me in the years to come! Thanks, Jill, for your great program!”
Barbara added in a separate message:
“My before weight was 142 lbs, after is 125 (I am 5’6″) I went from a tight size 6 or 8 to a loose 4 or 6. Shopping has become great fun because I can complain to the sales clerks about not finding anything small enough!”
I lost 41 pounds
Lori gained 50 pounds during a difficult pregnancy and went from 140 to 190 lbs. Three months after her baby’s birth she still weighed 190 lbs. She began using Oxycise! and has taken off 41 pounds.
I asked Lori to send an email listing any other benefits she has noticed…
“Increased energy, less mood swings and moodiness, much more patient with kids and husband, increased self esteem and image, much better flexibility, better performance in other forms of exercise (I do jazzercize now too), easy to do at home with/without kids, doesn’t cost anything, and eases PMS symptoms. Whew!! I didn’t realize how long the list would be!”
Oxycise! gives me the tone, face shaping, mood-building, confidence and stamina I need
“I’m a 38 year old mother of four and writer (translate sedentary) weighing 160 lbs. at 5’7”. I’ve been an off-and-on-again Oxyciser for a year now eating anything and everything I want (sadly I have a sweet tooth). Before Oxycise! I struggled just to keep my weight at 170 and couldn’t stick to an exercise program (my Nordic Track sits in the corner collecting dust).
“Oxycise! is the only exercise I’ve found that I like and can consistently commit to. My resolution this year to celebrate the millennium (new century, new habits) is to consistently Oxycise! 30 minutes a day and make healthy food choices. I like Jill’s advice in her book touting lots of fresh vegetables, fruits and grains.
“Now I Oxycise! in one thirty minute sitting (while my toddler naps) every single day, and I love it! I workout to levels 1 and 2 but levels 3 and 4 are waiting in the wings in case I get bored. My goal is to lose 35 excess baby pounds by the end of the year and I know, I know without a doubt that I can do it with Oxycise!
“So far Oxycise! has already reshaped my face and firmed and toned some muscles. And the energy! I never had energy before Oxycise, in fact, I used to take herbal supplements (Ginseng) to give me energy, but since Oxycising I threw them away.
“My testimony of Oxycise isn’t just in the inches and weight arena. If I never lost a pound or an inch I’d still O! because of the energy and confidence it gives me. It makes me feel great. I suffer from PMS, and my husband knows when I’ve been Oxycising (my family thanks Oxycise!).
“Because of the confidence and stamina and energy Oxycise! gave me, I accompanied my husband on a week long business trip to Seattle and Canada, entertaining our four children (ages 10, 8, 5 and a holy terror 17-month-old) all day while he worked. I never would have been able to handle that before O!
“So thanks Jill for sharing your discovery and research, thanks Julie for your inspiring steady newsletter, thanks Oxycise! for giving me my life back!
“Sidenote: here’s something I do to motivate me. I keep a pocket calendar on my kitchen wall and put a sticker on each day I O! which for me is two stickers a day. It’s positively heartening to see those stickers add up! Also, I scanned the cover of Jill’s book onto my computer as a desktop. So now whenever I’m at my computer I have Oxycise! on my screen (subliminal reminder to get up and do it!)”
Thank you all so much,
Lorna Goodman
Update:
“You may not remember me, but I am on the Oxycise! website ‘Smiles of Success.’ I have gone on to lose 40 more pounds since I submitted those, by following Jill’s ‘Fuel For Success’ eating plan mostly, and Oxycising when possible but not daily. I cannot say enough about eating more veggies and fruits and avoiding meat, dairy, sugar, etc. When I was just Oxycising alone I kept weight off, but not losing either, while eating all those unhealthy things (as Jill predicts in her book). As I did both, and even just following the eating lifestyle, I have dropped the weight.
“Her book, which in my opinion doesn’t get enough emphasis, is very similar to other plans out there including ‘Fit For Life’ and Marilu Henner’s (food combining.) Just wanted to mention that!”
Sincerely,
Lorna, Utah
Update:
“I really really appreciate your weekly Oxycise newsletter; thank you for the ongoing motivation!
“An Oxyciser for nearly four years, this is the one exercise I keep coming back to. I have in the past swam, jogged, jump-roped and danced my way to fitness, and currently enjoy the peaceful breathing movements of yoga and tai chi, but Oxycise! is the one exercise I consistently practice. Oxycise! gives me the tone, face shaping, mood-building, confidence and stamina I need, and working out with Jill is like having my own personal trainer. And I know I’m making a difference in my health on a cellular level.
“I like to play around with Oxycise so during my Level 1 & Level 2 workouts I’ve added ankle weights during one workout/tape and then switch them to my wrist during the other tape. This has been fun and I feel like I’m getting even more weight training with them.
“One bonus; I’ve decided to add meditation to my health program to help me focus because during Oxycise! my creativity streams forth continuously, and I constantly pause the tapes to write something down (goodbye writer’s block.) Good thing the workout can be done piecemeal instead of in a steady 15-minute burst!
“Well, just wanted to chime in with my progress, keep up the good work and keep on breathin’!”
He was out of breath when we reached the takeout point and I was not!
“Hi everyone, I just have to tell someone, so here goes. Since I started really working out with O! at the end of August, I have lost 30 pounds and I am not sure how many inches. I have been able to go from a tight size 18 to a loose size 16 and soon to a size 14. My goal is only 30 more pounds away. I know I can reach it if I stay consistent with O! and trying to make better, healthier food choices. This summer I plan on adding other types of exercise with O! just like I did last week. My husband and I went out in our touring kayaks (not to be confused with the whitewater kayaks, lol, not quite that adventurous) and had to paddle against a small current in a river and I found that if I did the basic breath I was able to paddle harder and keep up or pass my husband who was just paddling normally. He was out of breath when we reached the takeout point and I was not! Hurray for Oxycise!”
I have obtained my first goal of 7.5 lbs lost
“Jill
“I just wanted to drop you a note to say Thank You for sharing Oxycise! My sister got me interested in it. And I have been doing it now for 9 weeks. I have obtained my first goal of 7.5 lbs lost. I didn’t want to make it too difficult, because I have not been able to budge those lbs. I can’t believe how wonderful you feel when you are finished the workout. And I go for a bike ride and do some deep breathing while riding. When I get back I feel wonderful, not like I use to (just about dead after 9 or 10 km.). I have lost quit a few inches also. I am starting to get compliments. I have set my next goal for another 5 lbs. Probably would like to lose 10 more in total…
“Thanks for taking the time to read this. I really really appreciate your help in my life. This has been a lifetime of struggle with the bulge. But I feel with writing down all the food I eat and Oxy, I think I can maintain this lean life. I hope anyway. I also appreciate your website. It is wonderful.
“Thanks So MUCH.”
I suddenly lost about 12 inches and was just blown away…so exciting
“I have been Oxycising! for 3 weeks now. The first week, I actually gained several inches. (So discouraging.) Then, the second week, I suddenly lost about 12 inches and was just blown away…so exciting. This week, I lost another 5 inches, which puts me about 9 inches below where I started. This is good. I have been keeping up with my body fat percentages since the end of January and so far it has gone from about 42% to 36% as of today. Pretty impressive.”
Lisa mentions these additional results:
1. I have to walk to 4 flights of stairs to get to my office (we’re on the 3rd floor.). I used to have to stop half-way up and rest, but now I don’t. I’m still slow, don’t get me wrong, but my recovery time is much, much quicker already.
2. My skin has begun to clear up and looks “fresher”.
3. My breath support when I sing has improved and I can hit notes now that I haven’t been able to in years!
4. I can actually feel that I am forming real abdominal muscles under my fat (I have quite a bit to lose).
5. I use a treadmill at the gym that my family and I are members of and I have had to increase the intensity to get a good workout because the lower program wasn’t challenging enough any more. (P.S. my mother-in-law bought my family a membership to a gym for Christmas and it was really expensive. Telling her I’m not going to the gym because I am only Oxycising would be familial suicide. So, I enjoy the treadmill while my family does other activities.)
6. I have noticed an increase in my libido (much to my husband’s delight.!)
7. I have some mild insomnia, but I’ve noticed that even if I don’t get enough rest, using a couple of “Oxybreaths” (is this a word?) or doing the commuter tape really helps me make it through the day.
The Dr’s were impressed with my lack of side effects at my age (77) and especially my breathing capacity
“Hi,
“I have the old Easy Does It (VCR) version level 1,2,3 … I have been taking radiation treatments for several weeks and I just want you to know that Oxycise helped me so much during my whole ‘Cancer Ordeal’. I don’t know what I would have done without the On the Go Commuter Routine tape, I used it on the way to my treatments so I was well oxygenized when I got there (you have to take deep breaths & hold it while being radiated) and my arms were exercised (you have to hold your arms overhead the whole time) and even exercised my pectoral muscles (they can be weakened during radiation treatment) who knew? The Cancer Center in Boulder had never heard of the Oxycise program, I gave them the information so that they could add it to their ‘Integrative Treatment Program.’ The Dr’s were impressed with my lack of side effects at my age (77) and especially my breathing capacity.
“I was so glad that I remembered that I had the Oxycise program that I had not used in years (my mistake)..I’m back on the ‘bandwagon’ now & my ‘soapbox’ telling everybody about my success with Oxycise…
“FYI: Cancer can not live in an Oxygen environment…it thrives on lack of Oxygen..Who knew?
“When I moved to Colorado from Texas (near Estes Park at 7500’) I could not walk 10 Ft. without wheezing. I thought it was the altitude but my Dr. said my Asthma had returned ….turned out…I was not breathing properly..HELLO OXICISE…I now can Walk without even thinking about it. I am now ordering the Standard Series Level Two and Three workouts. I am a little tired of the old people sitting in chairs..Ha! I want to exercise overlooking the ‘Majestic Mountains’ and ‘Blue Skies’.”
Dorothy has gone from a size 12 to a size 6 since starting Oxycise!
From Dorothy’s daughter, Maria:
“My mother’s Name is Dorothy Smith, 79 year old.”
“She is an avid golfer, swimmer, and walker. She realized her stamina level had skyrocketed on the golf course, when she started to breeze past the 18th hole with excess energy to spare, and her hitting of balls was getting greater distances and more consistent.
“Dorothy has gone from a size 12 to a size 6 since starting Oxycise! At one point Dorothy said she had nothing to wear. As she looked at the clothes in her closet, she claimed all the clothes she tried on looked like clown pants, etc. Dorothy is sleeping better and her range of motion and flexibility has improved greatly too. Also she can tell her breathing process in doing the Oxycise! exercises has developed to a more consistent and deeper breathing and tightening and toning of muscles as well.
“Dorothy doesn’t miss a night of Oxycise!, and she looks forward to this special time.”
I have never felt better or had more energy!
“Last February my daughter told me about an exercise tape she had been using since the birth of her third child. She had done a great job of losing her pregnancy weight. Since I was approaching my 60th birthday in six months I decided it was time to do something about the 20 pounds I needed to lose. By the time my birthday rolled around in August I had lost fifteen of those pounds and have kept them off…even through business trips with my husband and family vacations! Oxycise is GREAT!! I have never felt better or had more energy! Thanks, Jill, for helping me. I miss you on the days I do not do the exercises.”
Update:
“I still love doing Oxycise! daily (except Sunday)!
“I feel better and have more stamina than ever. I walk every morning with two friends, one seven years younger than I and the other 20 years younger. I have no trouble keeping up with them while we walk and talk! Thanks to Jill!”
I lost my double chin the first week. I didn’t know you could do that!
“I am a young 60 years old. My name is Kate. I am 5 ft. 7 and started out at 240 lbs. I’m a college graduate with a masters in business management and hold a professional position in administration. Unfortunately, the latter means I sit in front of a computer a lot. In September my doctor told me I was on the cusp of Type 2 Diabetes (The type where your body is insulin resistant). Up until I turned 30 I weighed 153, but gained weight after my last pregnancy and found it impossible to lose it and keep it off. My blood pressure went up as did my cholesterol, but It didn’t particularly bother me. I’m healthy. I’m friendly and outgoing. People treat me well and I am able to do most of the activities I enjoy doing. When my weight started becoming a medical problem, however, I made up my mind to do something about it. My husband saw Oxycise! advertised in the paper and ordered it for me.
“The first thing I noticed – and the reason I got ‘hooked’ on Oxycise! – was the change in my face. I lost my double chin the first week. I didn’t know you could do that! Then I started noticing other changes almost on a daily basis – a dimple in my smile, a waste line. The most startling discovery, however, was the day I found myself going down the stairs at the movies taking one step after another (as opposed to going down one step, bringing my feet together and then taking the next). I stopped in the middle of the staircase turned to my husband in astonishment at what I had just done. He just grinned.
“In the first 6 weeks I lost 20 pounds. This happened easily and effortlessly with only minor changes in my diet to avoid sugar, white bread etc. I was never hungry. If anything, I ate all the time. Then I reached a plateau and began losing at about a half pound a week. My body, however continues to change shape. My joints don’t hurt anymore. In fact my knees and back don’t bother me at all – despite turning myself into a pretzel with the Level 4 workout! I don’t get cramps in my legs in the middle of the night. I am sleeping better. And when I look down, the biggest thing between me and my toes is my chest.
“I started doing Oxycise! to lose weight. Now I do it because I like it. It feels good.”
It is easy and invigorating
“I like the Oxycise! program. It is easy and invigorating. I’ve lost a few inches since doing the program, but notice the most improvement in my stamina. In fact, I was very dedicated to doing the program for the first several weeks after I received it and found I simply felt better doing the breathing exercises. Then, because of several time-consuming commitments during the next couple of weeks, I didn’t do the program as regularly and found the biggest difference I noticed was how tired I felt. I truly missed the extra oxygen I was receiving by doing the Oxycise! program. I started back on the program and have regained the physical ‘high’ I felt before letting up.”
The best part is the overall feeling of well being
“…I am in my fourth week. So far I have lost approximately 4 inches and about 7 lbs. The best part is the overall feeling of well being. I was put to the test not long ago. We were waiting for an elevator to go up to the sixth floor. I challenged those with me to a race up the stairs instead. When we arrived at the sixth floor, which I made it first by the way, everyone else was winded and I was fine. I feel better than I have in a long time and if for no other reason than that, I will continue Oxycise!”
I feel incredible! I feel in control!
“I just have to share with you my success!
“After stumbling onto your website and reading it thoroughly, I even printed out all the Success Stories to read (I couldn’t believe what I was reading). Finally, I purchased the Oxycise! Kit last Monday August 30th, received it on Wednesday–couldn’t start until Saturday.
“Before I go into details–let me tell you how skeptical I was. I measured my waist and marked it with a red pen so I would know exactly how many ‘inches’ (yeah, right) I had lost. I did Oxycise!! Saturday, and Sunday I was sore all over, especially in my abdominal area–I was ecstatic! (That basic breath is really something:) Sunday on the off chance that Oxycise! worked, I decided to measure. ONE COMPLETE INCH GONE!!!!!! I had to measure twice, but I knew my red pen mark couldn’t be lying. Today I measured and lost another 1/2 inch. Another remarkable thing, I usually get winded walking from my car to the building where I work (about 1/4 mile) Today, I strolled up to the building and TOOK THE STAIRS to my office–in stride–never breaking a sweat or gasping for air!!!! (which was the norm).
“I feel incredible! I feel in control! I know I have choices, thanks to Jill. I just ordered the commuter routine and can’t wait to receive it! I am not your typical person who needs to lose 35-50 pounds. I weigh close to 300 pounds, 4’11” tall. My whole life I have dealt with the “YOU HAVE SUCH A PRETTY FACE, IF ONLY…” Syndrome. I have tried everything–every gadget, pill, device, I could find. This is the first time I have seen results and feel like I didn’t just give my hard-earned money to pay for the superstar who endorsed the products trip to the Bahamas!! I know this is long, but I’m so excited and can’t wait for the upcoming weeks, months. Thank you for an exceptional product. I am so glad I stumbled onto your website. I’m gonna keep on marking my tape measure and I will keep you posted….I’m using the right map–Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”
I could have walked it again but the dog was out of breath and needed water!
“Hi Jill-
“The first night I did Oxycise! I took the dog for a walk and walked my usual route in half the time with NO shortness of breath or sore legs–could have walked it again but the dog was out of breath and needed water!!!! I couldn’t believe it!!!”
Even my kids are noticing
“Hi Jill,
“Now that I’ve been doing Oxycise! on a regular basis for three months, I wanted to share with you some of the changes that my body has gone through.
“I didn’t notice results immediately, in fact, for the first four weeks, nothing! But then dramatically, people noticed (almost overnight) that my face looked different, and my clothes were much looser. I have dropped almost ten pounds since doing your program, plus going on a diet of almost all whole foods. I wouldn’t miss a day without the video, and on my way to work I use your commuter routine. I run better, can actually have entire days where I breathe fully (I used to have panic attacks – I felt like I couldn’t get enough air in my lungs).
“I know that you get tons of e-mail, and at the risk of being repetitive, I just need you to know that this is truly a remarkable product. It has broken a three month plateau and it has changed the way my body and face look! Even my kids are noticing. Thanks so much for giving us such a wonderful opportunity for optimum health and well- being, and for your continued support. So may I say, of rather full breath, a true fan and total believer, THANK YOU!”
My abs are flat for the first time in a long while.
“Hi —
“Things are going well. I haven’t lost many inches, but things are pretty firm now. My abs are flat for the first time in a long while.
“You must understand, I used to be severely underweight (90 lbs) for several years. Then when I got my new life and my spirit back, my weight naturally went up. I had an appetite for the first time in years. My body needed the weight and didn’t want to give it up. It still doesn’t, but I’m learning to accept that at 29 years old, my body isn’t meant to look like it did when I was 16.
“I have a bit of a line down my abs now!! Can you believe it?? I had no idea that just breathing would produce any kind of definition.
“I still can’t do all of the positions just yet. It starts to mess up with my breathing, and I think the breathing is the most important thing.
“I just got my fiancee to try it. He couldn’t believe that he actually built up a sweat just standing and breathing for 20 minutes.
“Anyhow…your stuff has really helped me. Do you remember the exercise machine that I said I couldn’t get on for more than a minute? Well….I can do 15 minutes every day on that too!! So I do that…then I cool down….then I do the breathing a little later. The breathing seems to relax me and help me sleep better.”
“love and giggles,”
In addition to inch/fat loss, there are a multitude of other benefits
“. . . I would like to be another who affirms that Oxycise! works. In addition to inch/fat loss, there are a multitude of other benefits:
“I stand straighter
I can accomplish more difficult tasks without getting winded.
It’s a great wake-up routine for me.
It’s easy to do the basic breath just about anywhere.”
I have found muscles!
“Hi! I have been Oxycising for about 2 weeks now. I have lost around 3″ so far, but no pounds. But, I know why–I have found muscles! I was sitting at my keyboard wearing a sleeveless shirt–looked down and saw a bicep without flexing! Now, where did I get that? Over the weekend I was flinging bags of mulch into our van with no real effort at all–this is unheard of for me! I am trotting up the stairs at work with little or no exertion, and my quads are really hard when I flex them. I have energy to spare, and I feel so healthy. This is simply incredible–I still want to lose almost 75 pounds (I had lost around 75 when I began Oxycise!), so I am no ideal specimen, but I am probably in my best shape in over 15 years! I never thought I would be able to see such rapid and fantastic results from exercise. Jill, I know your wonderful program will help me be in better shape now, at 41, than I have ever been in my life! I have already started down the road–and the goal is in sight.”
My thighs simply do not ‘jiggle’ like they did in the old days
“I had my physical early this week and the nurse announced I was at 205. I shrieked, ‘YESSSSS!!!’
“She said, ‘Most people aren’t happy when I tell them their weight.’
“I said, ‘Maybe most people aren’t DOWN 12 POUNDS!!!’
“My doctor was so happy about this. What had I been doing, she asked. So I told her about starting with Body Flex and changing to Oxycise!.
“I’m so pleased. Everything fits SO much better . . . I don’t use a scale or a tape measure. I use my clothes and my mirror. I no longer obsess about pounds. I’m eating better, smoking less, and exercising a LOT more. Thanks to Oxycise! walking my 80-pound dog is easier because even though we really cruise and my heart rate increases, I don’t get winded.
“I just love this stuff. As of this writing there are only 3 more hours until I can go home and do it again . . . amazingly enough, I’m finding that moves like King Tut, the seated inner thigh stretch (a personal favorite), and the lying position with knee press have worked extremely well in my inner thighs. I really didn’t think it could be done. As crude as this may sound, they simply do not ‘jiggle’ like they did in the old days. I NEVER thought I’d find exercises that worked this area as well as Oxycise! I’m glad I didn’t waste $99 on a Bun and Thigh Sculptor … although over the years I’ve spent thousands on home gyms. Who would have thought I’d find the answer in a $22 set of videos??? :)”
I love how I feel — renewed — after doing Oxycise!
“I have Grave’s disease, and since my thyroid has been 100% destroyed I’ve had no energy and put on 30 pounds in one year. I had been taking a 2 hour nap during the day, and I would force myself to make it to 9 pm at night.
“Since Oxycise! I have so much energy. I feel like cleaning my house and cooking dinner. I now stay up with the kids and help them with their homework until 10:30 pm. I was always winded going up and down my stairs, and now it doesn’t bother me. I’m sleeping better — I usually have such a hard time. I’ve noticed that I feel satisfied at meals and don’t crave sweets — it seems that oxygen has affected my taste buds.
“Best of all, I got into my jeans last night that I haven’t been able to wear for so long! (I couldn’t even pull them up over my rear end.) My clothes look nicer. My mid-section has felt so bloated for so long, and that is going away. With so many exercise programs you don’t see results for so long, but with Oxycise! I see results now and it keeps me motivated to continue.
“This is the first thing I’ve done (I even cry) that doesn’t destroy my energy. I can feel changes every day — even my lungs getting more capacity. I feel like the old Jan is back!
“All around I feel healthier. We just really love it. It’s only been a week and I feel so much better about myself.”
Jan Worthen, mother of four, Pine, Colorado
Jan’s 16-year-old daughter, Angie:
“I love how I feel — renewed — after doing Oxycise! I can fit in my pants and look so much better. I’ve had to wear wide leg jeans all my life, and now I can wear regular ones. The minute I get home from school I put Oxycise! on. I love that I don’t have to change my clothes, and it hardly takes any time from my schedule — and I can visually see results. I never, ever thought I could do anything to affect my body size. I’m ecstatic!”

Comments from mother (Jan) about daughter (Angie):
“I recently talked Angie into buying some tight-fitting jeans (you couldn’t fit a finger between her skin and the fabric) and as she was leaving for school, I asked her, why are you wearing your baggy jeans. It turns out that those were the new tight jeans, but they are now baggy! Angie is on Cloud 9. Angie was getting a cold last week, but she started Oxycise! and never came down with the cold.”
Inch loss after 8 days:

I welcome the program to improve gas exchange, mobility, endurance and reduce pain and discomfort
“I am a physical therapist of 20 years and was just recently introduced to Oxycise! by one of my clients. I am thrilled with the program and I am utilizing it in the following ways….
1. Pain patients often hold their breath and shallow breathe which contributes to their pain. Improving their gas exchange reduces their acidic state and promotes an alkaline state thereby reducing pain. They report reduced pain and improved mobility with the 15-minute Oxycise! program.
2. I have cardio-pulmonary patients who lack energy due to poor oxygenation. They report improved energy and endurance after completing a 15-minute Oxycise! program.
3. Wheelchair bound patients who need to keep their lungs clear to prevent pneumonia have benefits from this program. I am in the process of introducing it to an Assisted Living Facility for their group exercise.
4. After a strenuous training program, I enjoy Oxycise! with my husband and report no muscle soreness and pain when using Oxycise! directly after strenuous muscular activity.
“I know that Oxycise! has been developed as a weight reduction program, however, as a therapist, I welcome the program to improve gas exchange, mobility, endurance and reduce pain and discomfort. Our Physical and Occupational therapy staff welcomes this program as an asset to our rehabilitation facility.”
In two years of Oxycising, I have dropped 40 pounds
“Who would have thought that after years of spending thousands of dollars on home exercise equipment, the answer to my fitness prayers would be a $20 set of videos about breathing?
“At 5’10” I weighed close to 220 pounds and was sporting a size 20. In two years of Oxycising, I have dropped 40 pounds (with no changes in diet) and have happily begun buying size 14 trousers.
“My strength, stamina, endurance, and lung capacity have increased enormously, not to mention my confidence and self-esteem. Climbing stairs and walking up hills are no longer exercises in futility; I can take both quite easily and do so more than ever before. My clothes fit like they are supposed to; my outlook on life is considerably more upbeat and positive; plus, I’m in the best shape (mentally and physically) I’ve ever been–even my doctor is impressed. For the rest of my life I will neither obsess about exercise and fitness nor worry about going back to the way I was. I’m happy to say I’ve made a lifelong commitment to this program. Oxycise! has made all the difference.”
I lost 26″ and 34 pounds
“I started Weight Watchers weighing 172.2 lbs. age 39…About a month later I saw Jill on TSC and ordered Oxycise!. I started Oxycise! along with my Weight Watchers program…
“I now wear a size 5 or 7. Wow, I feel like a new person. Oxycise! has done wonders for me. I have so much more energy, more stamina, I sleep better and deeper. I have just a general sense of well being that wasn’t there before.
“Recently I have been competing in x-country ski events. I felt a little wiped out after but on the drive home I decided to do my commuter routine. What a great idea that was. By the time I got home I felt absolutely wonderful.
“I would like to thank Jill once again, for her wonderful program. It has changed my life for the better. Recently I introduced a friend to Oxycise! and she is down 4″ in two weeks. Now she is becoming an Oxycise! faithful. I really attribute Oxycise and Weight Watchers for the wonderful changes in my life. Even my husband says my attitude is better.”
“Thanks again.”
Dramatic improvement of my cholesterol level
“The results were astonishing! I lost 8 pounds in three weeks, 3 inches off my “wasteland” in the same time and my stamina increased to where I was able to double my running mileage! The muscle definition was visibly improved also, and within two months my body fat composition decreased 7 percent. An unexpected benefit was the dramatic improvement of my cholesterol level which has gone down 80 points according to my last physical. Thank you for teaching me this!”
It is something that can be done anywhere
“I thought that I would drop a note to tell you that my husband and I travel very much throughout Asia, and reside in Japan. While we were back in the states, I saw the infomercial about Oxycise! Knowing how he and I both needed to exercise since we are either sitting in airports, on planes, trains, or in our offices, it really caught my attention.
“I had purchased exercise equipment to use at home, but since we have averaged being home a week per month in Japan during the past couple of years, it has been useless. I purchased small things like exercise stretch bands and such to carry in our suitcases, but nothing ever seemed to work out.
“I decided to write down the information from the TV and then called later on. I decided to order it and talk to my husband later about it. At first he wasn’t sure about it, but then decided to give it a try. I thought that you’d be glad to know that he does it on the International flights. He does it in the airports. He does it in the hotels. He does it just about anywhere. It is something that can be done anywhere, of course adjusting the movements to the location of where you are. On the plane, he uses the positions like on the workout for the car.
“He and I both have told many people about it and have gotten several started on it. Last year I did it for a few weeks and was amazed at the condition of my whole body. I traveled to Tokyo and went up and down the steps in the train stations with no thought of being out of breath. In fact, I realized that I left my friends behind, because I was walking up the steps so quickly. They were really out of breath.
“For whatever reason, I didn’t continue to follow through and slumped off. Recently, I have made up my mind to follow through with ‘O’ and already I have lost an inch off my waist in just a few days. I’ll keep you posted in the future of my success. My husband has toned down and continues to lose weight through a diet but the real difference in shaping up has came through ‘Oxycising.’
“By the way, the ONLY place we can’t Oxycise! is India because of the pollution. …After I purchased the [TV Special] last year, we returned to Japan and I immediately sold the exercise equipment. It just took up space and we no longer needed it. Oxycise! is definitely a part of our lives.”
“Thank you.”
O! did wonders for me
OH GOSH! Just completed my session! I also do weights and cardio and O! really enhances it. Just started O!ing again (haven’t done this in a long time) after I’ve got a cold in June and with a clean diet and real exercise, I’ve lost an inch! Amazing!
Update: The holidays are coming, and I have caregiving duties on top of that. I’m going to do my O! with lots of gusto and power and increase the duration a bit! So far I lost 7 inches from my waist and 4 inches from my hips! I might have a chance that as long as I keep portions in check, I might actually lose than gain over the holidays!
Update: There’s a party coming up in 2 weeks and I’m using the program religiously! Already wore my party dress to see how it fit and it was LOOSE at the arms! OH YEAH! I’ll be CERTAINLY ready for that, thanks to this AMAZING workout regimen!
Update: Just wanted to know how O! did wonders for me. Took the Adult Fitness Test and did the 1-mile walk in 8:11 – the 99%ile! That’s why I incorporated O! into my near-daily workout regimen. I just did 212 breaths yesterday!
I only did the breathing exercises laying down on my bed
I love Oxycise.
What I’m going to say though is going through the exercise, looking at it, and how it’s presented- does appear tedious and silly. But do not let appearances deceive you. Put your all into in and the effects are amazing. You will not be disappointed. Many people make the mistake of thinking that exercises should be exciting and that if they are not – they are useless. When they do that – they pass up gems like this video that explains everything and that anyone can do. I’m so lazy I only did the breathing exercises laying down on my bed and yes I do hate exercising.
I’m not a very disciplined person. But for my health, I’m going to try again. Yes I have used oxycise before. And though I didn’t feel (bodywise) the effects was having on my body. It did work. At the end of the first month I lost 4 inches in my waist. I couldn’t believe it. It wasn’t a mistake. I’m very meticulous when it comes to measuring for things like that. I did it 4 times before I started. I was always tire d and runned down and I couldn’t walk over the hills effectively while on my way to work. The older people were passing me by at full speed and I was embarrassed. I bought oxycise and immediately I felt the difference. I was no longer huffing and puffing over those hills, and I could actually run for the bus and get it. I didn’t feel any difference, But the end of the month revealed a lot. I had lost a lot of inches all over my body including what I mentioned earlier in this review and I felt a lot better in fact I’m going to start doing it again. But I want it to be a life-long change. My goal is 133 pounds. I have over 2 months off from work for vacation and I plan to use it wisely.
I feel great
I’ve done oxycise on and off (mostly off!) for the last twelve years, enough to see tiny results but I have trouble sticking with it. Finally I made a strict rule for myself: No computer time until I Oxycise! It has worked for six days so far. I feel great, and on day four I hiked up the hill to church that normally wipes me out, but it was much easier. Thank you!
