We had always had problems with our weight. We weren&#8217;t obese per se, but we emotionally ate and felt mentally obese,&#8221; said Jen. When Jen saw advertisements for the <strong><a title=\"hoopnotica\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diets\/hoopnotic-travel-hoop\/\">Hoopnotica<\/a><\/strong> exercise device, she saved up, bought the hoop, and has been addicted ever since.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Keith thought it was just another exercise fad,&#8221; said Jen, &#8220;but he finally caught on and was an intuitive hooper.&#8221; Through hooping and eating right, <strong><a title=\"hula hoop weight loss\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/02\/jen-moore-lost-150-pounds-by-hula-hooping\/\">the Moores lost a combined 270 pounds<\/a><\/strong>.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Keith&#8217;s natural hula hoop intuition is a common bond shared with Hoopnotica adopters. Everyone remembers hula hooping as a kid, and the muscle memory developed in childhood seems to return with ease. &#8220;Hooping is so accessible and low-impact,&#8221; said Jen. Even if hooping is like riding a bike or tying you shoes, people are still skeptical about <strong><a title=\"hula hoop workout\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/06\/hula-hooping\/\">hopping in a hoop and hulaing<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>A Hoopnotica hoop is not your eight-year-old&#8217;s hoop. &#8220;Traditional hooping is like trying to jump into a girls Barbie Jeep and trying to drive it,&#8221; said Jen. &#8220;The adult hoop is one and a half pounds, and allows the body to sustain gyration in a controlled, graceful way.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The average hoop is 42&#8243; in diameter, and standing up, should rest between the belly button and sternum. People tend to think that the bigger the person, the bigger the hoop should be. &#8220;If someone has a lot of weight to lose, they&#8217;ll need to start with a larger hoop. It&#8217;s basic physics.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The L.A.-based company promotes a healthy, balanced lifestyle and makes no outlandish weight loss claims. &#8220;People want to do extreme things to lose weight quickly,&#8221; said Jen. &#8220;But it all comes down to what you put in your mouth.&#8221; When Jen began the program, she would hoop for 15 minutes a day and began eating healthy. She lost 12 pounds the first month and 25 pounds after two.<\/p>\n<p>Jen and Keith are now employed with Hoopnotica as Master Trainers. They <strong><a title=\"hoopnotica class\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/07\/take-off-the-weight-with-a-hoopnotica-hula-hooping-class\/\">teach classes at their hula studio<\/a><\/strong> in Upstate New York and have appeared on the Today Show and The Doctors show. It&#8217;s starting to become a fashionable and trusted exercise tool for celebrities.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s fantasically organic how people are drawn to Hoopnotica,&#8221; said Jen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-88024\" alt=\"kelly osbourne hoopnotica\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/kelly-osbourne-hoopnotica.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/kelly-osbourne-hoopnotica.jpg 600w, https:\/\/dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/kelly-osbourne-hoopnotica-300x111.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While Jen says the company doesn&#8217;t have any celebrity endorsements, <strong><a title=\"kelly osbourne self magazine\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dietsinreview.com\/diet_column\/04\/regarding-kelly-osbournes-weight-you-care-more-than-she-does\/\">Kelly Osbourne recently appeared on the cover of SELF<\/a> <\/strong>Magazine with her Hoopnotica hoop and mentioned how she&#8217;d rather have a hula party at home than go to the club.
