Actually, there's a website totally dedicated to this: http://getupmove.com/
Check the message boards for tons of stories/tips.

And I lost about 20 pounds with DDR and eating right. Eating right was a major part though. No couting carbs or staying away from foods (although I have been drinking alot less pop), my general rule was to use more calories than I took in and it worked for me.

how about drinking V8 or Caffiane Free soda?

I eat chicken everyday. Pork is bad I think.

Anyway...

eat right
exercise
believe in yourself
drink water or V8

while playing DDR for the past 6 months, i've gotten a tad taller(which has nothing to do with DDR) and lost fat while staying the same weight, so i guess i've gained leg muscle.

uhh i lost 10 pounds(due to DDR and working out once a week) and grew about 6 inches since i started(due to the adventures of puberty) over the past 2 years.

But ive gained 4 lbs in the past month because i havent been playing much DDR because all i have is a soft pad that i dont like using...so now i fear i might get fat....(im actually pretty skinny, 6' 1" and 146 pounds).

DDR does help you lose weight if you stick to it. I eat unhealthily (bring on the chili dogs, mountain dew, and fast breaks baby!!)..i bet if i started eating healthy and stopped watching anime constantely i would be a lot more in shape...

I've cut out colas entirely, plus stopped eating fast food. I also play DDR 30-60 minutes a day now (endless mode is great for workouts).

I really started getting serious about all of the above a month ago (beginning of June), and I've already lost 10 pounds.

Usually when people are trying to lose weight, they go for 1-2 hours. Usually as long as possible would make sense.

Repeat threads are fun.

I've been playing for years and haven't lost a pound.

Well..
Last year, before I started playing DDR, I weighed 270 pounds.
I started playing DDR in March, 2005.. So before I played, I weighed that much.
It's not like I sat around and stuffed my face..
My thyroid has been underactive since the age of 3.
When I was little I had bladder problems, and the hospital put radioactive dye in me.
They never told my mom that it could effect my thyroid.
Since June 2005, I have been on pills for my thyroid (hormone replacement therapy), and have lost almost 80 pounds.
I currently weigh 195 pounds..
And all I do is play DDR every Friday without failure, sometimes other random days.
I don't pay attention to what I eat, but I drink a lot of water. It helps.
