5.0 out of 5 stars Getting in Shape QUICK, February 17, 2008

By	Janice Cooley - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I've been a walker for years. Walking had helped me to stay fit and in control of maintaining my weight and size. However, for the last year I started gaining weight so I increased my walking time but I still couldn't drop those extra pounds. I had almost given up and accepted those extra pounds. But I heard about Debbie Rocker walkvest and decided to give it a try. Though I've only had my walkvest for several weeks I've already seen a MAJOR change! I've only lost one pound but my clothes are fitting more loose. I'm really excited and more motivated to walk since I''m actually seeing a change. I highly recommend Debbie Rocker's Walkvest to anyone who wants to get rid of those extra pounds and inches. In fact, I'm ready to buy more weights. I may actually get back into a size six!

5.0 out of 5 stars walkvest is great, October 17, 2007

By	Jan Yuille - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This product is very good for anyone wanting to take their walking routine up a notch. I didn't think an extra 4 - 8 lbs would be that heavy! Just one word on the fit of the product. I didn't know until I received the vest that it should fit snugly. I ordered a size that was too big so I will have to alter the size somehow to make it smaller. Other than that the vest is very well made and the dvd was good too. I haven't had the chance to use the cd yet.

4.0 out of 5 stars gaiam walkvest, October 13, 2007

By	Karen L. Miller "Karen" (Oceanside, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I like the concept and the vest if comfortable. I only warn people about using too much weight at first. Remember to start off slowly with the weights.
