Start recording all of the food that you consume on a daily basis. When you see all of the food that you eat, you will be able to better control your food intake. Sometimes people are surprised by the amount of food that they eat in any given day. I know I was!
Don’t worry if you’re not losing as much as you want. This will come with time. If you are not losing weight but sticking to the meal plan and performing the body sculpting, then this means you are gaining lean muscle mass. Lean muscle weights more than fat and you will become thinner once your lean muscle starts burning calories at a faster rate. Even though you might not weigh less, you body will become slim. To test this, try on a pair of jeans that didn’t fit before. You’ll be pleasantly surprised!
First of all, start drinking more water. Water will ensure that you are flushing out all toxins and creating a natural flow through your body. Many people think that drinking more water will make them gain weight, but you actually have to drink more water to lose less weight. The Michael Thurmond makeover recommends to drink over 100 oz. of water per day. The best way to do this is by carrying a large water bottle with you at all times and taking sips from your body all day. If you do not like boring water, add low-sodium Crystal light or other natural products to have flavored drink throughout the day. However, make sure that all of your beverages are low in sodium.
Make sure that you’re eating every meal that is recommended in the six week body makeover. The goal of eating more meals is to reprogram your body’s metabolism to burn food at a faster rate. You are tricking your metabolism into thinking that it doesn’t need to store food as energy because there’s an abundance of food.
Lastly, you should be eating meals approximately one to three hours apart. Do not under eat because your body will shut down and go into starvation mode, which will slow down your metabolism. Eat even when you’re not hungry. Keep food near you at all times and carry a small tote bag with some snacks so that you can feed throughout the day. These are just a few tips to ensure that you will have success on the Michael Thurmond 6 Week Body Makeover
Does the 6 Week Body Makeover work? This is a question that is asked by many people that are planning on purchasing the program, or have heard about the program through an infomercial.
Yes, the Michael Thurmond diet program does work and you’ll lose a lot of weight. However, the only way that you will lose weight on this program is by sticking to the eating program. You will not lose weight if you fall off the plan and go back to your regular eating habits.
The basis of the program is to re-train your eating habits and within a 6 week duration. The reason why you need to retrain your eating habits is because your current eating habits and food choices are making you fat. Your metabolism and lean muscle mass is the number one factor for weight loss. I’m sure the majority of you that are reading this post right now do not have enough lean muscle mass to burn the amount of calories needed to lose weight.
More lean muscle equals an increase in metabolism. Another way to increase your metabolism is by eating foods that will help you with your weight loss goals. Foods react differently when consumed by different body types. Foods that help burn fat and build muscle for some people may not burn fat for another person. Determining what types of foods you need to eat to burn fat starts with building your 6 week body blueprint.
The Michael Thurman 6 Week Body Blueprint is a building block for determining what type of body you have.
Basically, it’s a questionnaire that asks you about your lifestyle, eating habits, ideal weight, weight loss goals, body characteristics and hunger level. You will be assessed as a body type A, B, C, D or E after you have answered all of the questions. Without the blue print, you will not be able to go onto the next step of your eating program, which is customizing your own fat burning meal plan.
Your 6 Week Body customized meal plan will insure that you lose the weight that you currently have problems with. You can choose from the accelerated fat loss program, Infinite Menu Planner or a mix of both. The accelerated fat loss program is an eating program that allows you to lose the maximum amount of weight. The Infinite Menu Planner is a food book that allows you to choose the foods that you want to eat and still lose a lot of weight.
The key to this program is to eat more. The more you eat the more you will lose. Many people are confused by this theory because they think overconsumption is the reason they’re fat in the first place. Eating more meals doesn’t necessarily mean you are eating more food. On the 6 week diet program you will eat more meals, however the meals are very light and are packed full of nutritious foods (that you prepare). More meals throughout the day will keep you full all the time and allow your metabolism to think that it’s OK to burn more calories.
Your metabolism controls how many calories your body burns throughout the day. Obviously, the higher your metabolism, the higher amount of calories burned in a day. Your goal on this program is to allow your metabolism to be a”hot burning fire” and burn consume all the fuel that you feed it. The food that you eat on this program will be the perfect for your “fire” which will allow you to burn the fat calories that are stored within your body.
Lastly, if you want to burn even more calories, you will have to exercise. Many people want to lose weight without exercising. You will lose weight without exercising by simply eating the meals; however, you will burn more calories if you perform 18 minutes of exercises twice a week. 36 minutes of exercises in a week does not sound awful and will greatly impact how much weight you lose.
The way to lose weight with the body sculpting program is by using the body blue print cards and locating your problem areas. Your problem areas are the fattest parts of your body. These problem areas store the most fat and your goal throughout the program is to increase lean muscle mass in these areas so that you can burn the maximum amount of fat.
Are you ready to take your blueprint now that you know a little bit about how the 6 Week Body Makeover?
