All DietsWhat You Should Know
Michael Thurmond is the man behind the 6 Week Body Makeover. The program can be found online at mybodymakeover.com. This approach takes into account each individual’s metabolism and body type. The six week program is divided into three steps, each promising to deliver the weight loss results and the body makeover you want, guaranteed. The claims are a bit far fetched, but nonetheless worth looking at.

Product Features
Step One: This step is where you figure out your individual blueprint. The questonnaire helps you figure out how your body responds to food to provide clues to your metaoblic type. The questionnaire also helps you figure out the kinds of exercise you need to keep you from exercising the wrong way. Michael Thurmond claims that by exercising only the problem areas of your body, you only need to exercise around 30 minutes per week and you can ignore the rest. You’ll have a specific exercise routine to “reshape each and every one of the problem areas of your body.”< /p>
Step Two:This step consists of developing a customized makeover plan based on the results of the blueprint. Here is where you will figure out the meal plan and the short exercises that you need for your specific metabolic type and problem areas that you need to incorporate into your daily life.
Step Three: All you have to do is start living by what the customized makeover plan directs you to do. Understanding your body type, the foods you can eat, and the exercises you need to do are the key. There is an order form on the mybodymakeover.com website that includes a Quickstart Plan, a Customized Eating Plan, an 18 minute body sculpting program customized just for you, custom meal recipes, and a lean living program used as a reference.
Advantages
- The program promotes diet and exercise.
- The program does not promote crash diets and quick results.
Disadvantages
- There are some very unhappy customers who speak against them in a blog.
- The program is expensive for many people at $119.94 from the website.
- The fitness routines promoted seems to go against fitness common sense.
Conclusion
Michael Thurmond’s 6 Week Body Makeover program is highly desirable on the surface. The fact is that the proper foods need to be eaten, and the proper amount of exercise needs to be done each week, consistently in order to see weight loss and body shaping results. These habits must be adapted as part of a healthy lifestyle in order to prevent the weight from coming back. The claim that you only need to exercise 30 minutes a week to maintain proper health and weight loss is just completely contradictory to everything we learn about the body.
If you want to diet and lose weight, be sure to do so using a healthy, balanced diet, increased water intake, and a full body workout. Look for a proven weight loss supplement to add to your regimen that addresses both fat burning and appetite suppression.
I think that you all need to lay off a person. I beleive that with healthy eating and exercise you can do this. Whether it following a so-called diet fad, or Michaels way of making a change in your lifestyle. Yes if you want wait-loss right away go for the fad diets, but be warned you will not be happy. Now if you are ready to make a lifestyle change I suggest following this plan. You also have to have faith in yourself and the change. And Michael says in order to lose weight you need 45-60 minutes of exercise to lose fat not 30 min.

I saw the add on TV last night and was impressed. I weighed 543 7 years ago had RNY surgery lost a bunch. Now staying around 400 lbs. I have very limited activity.
I have destroyed my knees, had a major malabsorbtion problem and have several health issues as a result.
Is it logical to think that a program like this will really help me? I know I need to find a way or I will just die soon. I do not have the money for this program. Is there a way I can earn the program. I’m and LPN with alot of experience with research and diet programs. Is there a way I can get the program without a monitary output????? Thanks for your time.

My husband and I just started week 2 and I’m down 7 lbs and he is down 11 lbs. Obviously, a lot of that is water weight but it is amazing what a week does. Stick to it and it DOES work. It does take a lot of prep time but if you put that time in, you are more likely to stay on it. Use the help line for any questions..they are great! Also, look at their recipies..it helps add some flavor to the meals so you don’t get sick of the same stuff. Good luck to everyone!

how can this program be incorporated when cooking for a family with 3 small children?

Honestly, you won’t be making food for yourself that you would be doing a disservice to you children to feed them. The focus is lean meats, vegatables, and low sugar fruits (depending on your body type). All foods you should be feeding a growing child anyway. You get grains, potatoes and rice too. You have to learn the correct forms and ways to cook them though. Using spices, no salt. Salt, Sugar, wheat and dairy are not allowed during your weight loss (read book for details. Salt retains water, sugar is empty calories, some people are allergic to wheat and gain. When you reach your goal you can add these things back in moderation of course. Anyway, you would prepare your proteins, veggies and fruits for you and your children, and your children can have ADDITIONAL grains, dairy and etc for them. You just have to have the willpower not to eat them. Things like meats can be all cooked on Sunday for the entire week, can freeze cooked for easy meal preps. Can buy frozen veggies if preparing fresh is too much work. In the long run, your children will learn healthier eating habits.

The review is not quite correct. In FACT, you are supposed to work up to exercising 4-5 days per week in the form of long walks, at least an hour at your heart rate (which instructions to find are in the materials). The “30 minutes” in the review is incorrect. First, its 20 minutes, second, its twice a week and third, the exercise spoken of in that 20 minutes is the muscle working routines using the exercise band. Those SCULPTING workouts are IN ADDITION, to long walks for cardio. And it works. I’ve lost 15 pounds in 6 weeks. No its not the 30 spoken of in the commercial, but is correct for someone like me who had less than 30 lbs to lose. Those more grossly obese will lose far more in those 6 weeks, just because they have more to lose, and IF THEY STICK TO THE PLAN EXACTLY. No cheating. End of story. And reviewers really SHOULD read the whole plan before writing a review.
