Welcome to the 6 Week Body Makeover blog. I started this blog as a way to review the product as well as keep myself accountable for losing weight. Let me tell you a little bit about myself and why I have chosen this diet out of all the other popular weight loss products on the market.
All of my life I have had a problem with my weight and have never felt satisfied with my current body weight. When I was in high school I weighed nearly 200 lbs. I’m 5′8″ and being 200 lbs was considered obese. I went to the doctor for a physical and was notified that I had high blood pressure. High blood pressure at 16 years old is a scary situation.
After high school, the weight started to drop off and during my second year of college I weighted around 150 lbs. I was too skinny at this weight and did not have any lean muscle mass as I did not work out and only ate one meal a day (ramen noodles).
My weight fluctuates till this day and I currently weigh around 175 lbs. My ideal weight would be around 155 lbs, BUT I would like to have lean muscle mass and muscle weight. I chose the body makeover diet as a means to learn how to eat healthy without having to compromise eating portions.
The current diet I’m on is about learning how to eat correctly based on your body type. According to the diet, losing weight is not about starving yourself, taking pills or drinking expensive shakes, it’s about eating foods that help increase your metabolism and burn calories throughout the day.
The idea of having a meal plan that would cooperate with my metabolism and help burn calories was quite appealing to me. I’m the type of person that needs a lot of structure when it comes to eating. If I do not have structure, I tend to eat whatever is in front of me and most of the time my food choices are not healthy. I love eating fried chicken and macaroni and cheese which is probably one of the worst meals that someone can eat while trying to lose weight.
I’m excited to start my own personalized meal plan and drop the weight and I would love to share my weight loss goals and give tidbits of information about the 6 Week Body Makeover.
