Two words. Frisbee Dog. He lost a ton of weight playing. If you really want to turn DDR into weight loss-
Play as often as your cofortable with.
Find an arcade that offers Token insentives (i.e. $6 of tokens for $5)
Or....
Invest in the Red Octane foam pad. It's $99, but it's the best home pad I've tried. It's sturdy and only slides a very little bit on carpet...untill you do heavy mode. |

OK so I don't have this game... but AzVegeta does.
And since AzV is now Shino's Roommate...
Shino has access to said game.
Well we had a party at the house Friday night and I broke it out.
A bunch of us who have never played the game before decided to give it a shot b/c one girl was talking about it.
Well we had such an awesome time. I think I'm going to be playing this a little more often. 
Figures that the only way anyone would ever get me to dance is on a video game!

you can totally lose weight on DDR. Diet well and do that everyday for at least a half hour and it will work you out!
booyaa! |

There are even articles in Yahoo's News section for today that say that DDR can be a good weight-loss program, but that it's a bit expensive. |

Expensive...
Spend the money to buy the game and that's it.
No monthly fee like a gym
quite a variety with all the music and different steps speeds... so much better than one of those stupid videos.
You can always wait until the DDR discs go on the greatest hits too before buying them.
Sounds good to me! |

Yes you CAN lose weight by playing DDR. It's like aerobics. You're moving around without going anywhere. Obviously it's better if you can do faster songs, otherwise you'd need to do many many more slow ones for the same effect.
However, there are better ways to lose weight than by playing DDR. If your goal is to actually lose weight I can suggest some things. However, it probably won't be as fun. The bottom line is it's more fun to play games (basketball, hockey, frizbee) and losing weight is an added bonus. But, if you're serious about losing weight I'll hook you up with some ideas.
