    I have a few of her videos and really like them ALL! My favorite Leslie Sansone videos are:

    Walk Strong ( LOVE that one)

    I started using Leslie's Walk/Jog video about a month ago for twice a week. I started to notice a difference in about 2 weeks. I don't have a scale so I can't say how much weight I've lost. I go by how tight my jeans fit. All I can say is the jeans aren't as tight as they used to be and it feels great. I've had a few of her videos for years and always said they didn't work because all I did was look at them and never used them. Duh! Then I started to feel uncomfortable about my size so I decided to try the video. My goal is to be able to cross my legs (thigh over thigh) comfortably. I've tried other exercise videos and didn't like them as well as Leslie's. To keep from getting bored I've added Stott Pilates abs Video. I alternate days. Walking one day and abs the next. What I enjoy most about this type of exercise program is that it is in the comfort of my home. When the weather is nice (in the winter, I live in Phoenix) I'll add walking outdoors a few times a week. Overall, I can say that Leslie's program is working. I think I'm cute, again!!! ;-)

    I have been using the 4 mile with the resistance band and I really love it, I walk alot outside now but feel like I have really worked out when I do her DVD. It took me a while to do the whole 4 miles. My dvd player broke so I haven't been able to do for couple weeks now. I think it has helped tone me up, I have lost 60 lbs in 6 months and do think this dvd has helped!

    I have her 5 mile Dvd. I really like it because I can select any of the 5 mikes to do and do any combination up to 5 mikes. I love to fit a mile in before leaving for work because I don't have time for more than about 15 minutes.

    I have been doing Leslie Sansone's 5 Day Ultimate Walk Plan. I havent been following the order, mostly stick with the 3 miles a day. Between counting calories and exercising (aiming fo 5-6 days a week but do lax from time to time) I went down 4 pants sizes and about 15 lbs in 2 months. Im back to seriously trying to count calories and working out everyday again so Im hoping more will come off soon!

    Well I'm not a success story yet, however i started MFP Sept 6th, that is also when i started Leslie Sansone, so far i have lost 18 lbs, and 8 inches, 2 of them are off my thighs. My favourite dvd so far, 5 mile plan. I recently started Callanetics by Callan Pickney hoping to loss more inches yet. I have 10 lbs to get to goal, at this point inches are more important. I walk on average with Leslie 30 miles a week. Best of luck in your endeavours!

    Cheers :drinker:

    I've been doing Leslie DVDs since beginning of July. I've added strength training with ChaLean Extreme and lost almost 30 lbs. I love the newer Leslie workouts. The old ones are much too boring and easy.

    Ive lost almost 50 lbs since July using Leslie Sanstones tapes. I get them free on You Tube....they are great since I don't do strenuous exercising. I did one today where she incorporates a little running in with her walking tape and it was great...first time I ran in 50,000 years...ha ha....she is great...

    I started with Leslie Sansone dvds!! I haven't done any of them in a long time. I've been doing Chalean Extreme and Turbo Fire...but I started with Leslie Sansone!! The moves were easy to follow along and I went at my own pace!!
  • I have been using leslies dvds for 20 years. I started using them when there was no such thing as dvds, they were on tape. I am now almost 70 and I credit her tapes and dvds for helping to keep me in shape for all these years.. I have had many health challenges over these years, but have always fallen back on her good exersizes for helping me overcome them. I say thank. you to Leslie. She promotes weight loss but most importantly she promotes good health through exercize.

    I'm doing Leslie Sansone as my main way of exercising too. I've had her DVDs for about 10 years and just started backing working out. LS DVDs helped me lose 50+ lbs. 10 years ago. You can incorporate hand weights or resistance bands with the workouts to give you that extra intensity and believe me it does work. It's also great for exercising when the weather is not so conducive for going outside.

    I absolutely love her and her videos. I have all her videos except 2 (I don't have her senior or kids walk). Fantastic workouts with a beautiful positive person.

    I've been using her DVD's for the last week and I really like them. I always end up giving it a little more than what the video is showing. I just bought 2 lbs weights for each hand, sometimes I feel like the videos aren't enough, but using the weights help a lot. Good luck!

    Me! I have had lots of luck with Leslie's videos. I started in July using them when it was too hot to walk outside. Now they are one of my primary sources of exercise. I just recently bought the Complete 5 mile walk and have done it numerous times. In an hour, I can burn about 400-500 calories (per my HRM). I have lost a total of 63 pounds since I started in July and she is a main reason why!.

    I am bumping this because I started to follow her videos this week. I have ankle and knee problems so her program is a blessing. Anyone still using it or newbies can add me, i'd love to hear about your schedule too :D

    I just started doing the 3 mile walk. Its on YouTube for free! I was amazed how much I felt like I was working. I guess I always thought of Walk Away the Pounds as an old lady program...lol. Well I am close to being an old lady.

    Yes, i lost 20 lbs in 6 months with leslie sansone walk at home program together with using Myfitnesspal to monitor what i eat. I am a very petite size of 4'11" 126 lbs so it is harder to lost weight.

    I was overweight after gave birth of my daughter in 2005, never lost the pregnancy weight after so many years :(

    But since Nov 2013 until March 2014 i have lost all my pregnancy weight, my current weight is 106 lbs body fat 22%. Never gain the weight back. Is good to lost weight steadily and slow but then the weight lost stays :) Yes, you could definately lost weight with Leslie sansone.

    my testimony

    I love Leslie dvd's. My favorite two are Walkin to the a Hits (2013) and Walk down the blood Sugar. I also walk outside a lot, but the Leslie dvd's give me a good workout and a fun change of pace. I started MFP and the Leslie dvd's on January 29, 2014 and have lost 60 pounds! I watch carbs and calories. I feel FABULOUS! Down 4 pants sizes. I would like to lose 30 more, I think....and I'm motivated to get to the goal!! Yahoo shoutout to all of you who enjoy the Leslie dvd's as much as I do. KEEP WALKIN!

    I haven't used her videos in a while but after a few months break from exercising when I moved house I needed to get back in. I did her power walks 1 mile and 2 miles to ease myself back into exercising g. I have now progressed onto more challenging workout like Jillian shred and ripped but still would do Leslie's if I had more time.

    I use Leslie Sansone dvds in the winter. I also used them when I was pregnant, and post partum. If I am feeling ambitious i do extra moves like jog instead of walking and raising my arms up faster and higher. I like her personality also, she seems very nice and isn't pushy.

    I've been doing the leslie sansone dvds. I've never worked out before, ever! so I needed something easy and it's easy to pick up but I still break a sweat and it's boosted my weight loss. I can only be manage 1-2 miles atm but hoping I'll be able to do more and more as I do it every day!

    I love her 5 mile walk dvd with her accessories and I have lost a good portion of my weight from doing her DVDS, youtube her workouts too if you don't have them, most are the full video for free. I also walk my kids to and from school each day tuesday through friday, monday is my day off walking them to school and I usually do a 5 mile walk away the pounds dvd that day instead.

    I like her videos because they are easy on my knees. No success story yet, but I just wanted to pop into the thread and say hi. :^)
