Celebrities are losing weight on Dancing with the Stars
If you thought ballroom dancing was not “real exercise” think again. Us mag reveals that the celebs on Dancing with the Stars have been peeling off the pounds as they have fine tuned their dance routines.
“In three weeks of dancing, I’ve lost 5 pounds. I hope my whole body changes. I’m starting to get my waist back, and that’s a big thing after having three babies!” – Jenny Garth
“I’ve lost three pant sizes in 10 days!” – Wayne Newton
“I’ve already lost 20-some pounds! I lost a little before we started. Six or 7 more… and the six pack will come back!” – Mark Cuban
“I’ve lost 14-16 pounds. I’m actually about 7 pounds lighter than I was when I was 16 years old and training in ballet! So I don’t think I should lose any more or I’ll evaporate!” – Jane Seymour.
Along with fellow Dancing with the Stars contestant Marie Osmond, who lost 3 inches off her waist, these dancing celebs are finding that ballroom dancing stacks up as some serious exercise! Have fun with your exercise.
